About CytoDyn
CytoDyn is a biotechnology company developing innovative
treatments for multiple therapeutic indications based on PRO 140 (leronlimab),
a novel humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the CCR5 receptor. CCR5 plays a
key role in the ability of HIV to enter and infect healthy T-cells. The
CCR5 receptor is also implicated in tumor metastasis and in immune-mediated
illnesses such as graft-vs-host disease (GvHD) and NASH. CytoDyn has
successfully completed a Phase 3 pivotal trial with PRO 140 in combination with
standard anti-retroviral therapies in HIV-infected treatment-experienced
patients. The Company plans to seek FDA approval for PRO 140 in combination
therapy and plans to complete the filing of a Biological License Application
(BLA) in the first quarter of 2019 for that indication. CytoDyn is also
conducting a Phase 3 investigative trial with PRO 140 as a once-weekly
monotherapy for HIV-infected patients, and plans to initiate a
registration-directed study of PRO 140 monotherapy indication, which if
successful, could support a label extension. Clinical results to date from multiple
trials have shown that PRO 140 can significantly reduce viral burden in people
infected with HIV with no reported drug-related serious adverse events (SAEs).
Moreover, results from a Phase 2b clinical trial demonstrated that PRO 140
monotherapy can prevent viral escape in HIV-infected patients, with some
patients on PRO 140 monotherapy remaining virally suppressed for more than four
years. CytoDyn is also conducting a Phase 2 trial to evaluate PRO 140 for the
prevention of GvHD and expects to initiate clinical trials with PRO 140 in
metastatic triple-negative breast cancer in 2018. For more information, visit
