TEL AVIV, Israel, April 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chemomab Therapeutics Ltd. (Nasdaq: CMMB), (Chemomab), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing innovative therapeutics to treat rare fibro-inflammatory diseases with high unmet need, today announced the publication of a new study that further confirms the key role of its novel soluble protein target CCL24 in systemic sclerosis (SSc). The study, “Serum CCL24 as a Biomarker of Fibrotic and Vascular Disease Severity in Systemic Sclerosis,” was published in the current edition of the journal Arthritis Care and Research.1

Key Points: 
  • It explored the relationship between serum CCL24 levels and SSc severity and prognosis.
  • One in four patients in a real-life SSc population was found to have a high CCL24 serum concentration, despite standard of care treatment with immunosuppressive therapy.
  • The analysis found that higher CCL24 levels were linked to critical clinical variables associated with the most severe forms of SSc.
  • Crucially, high serum CCL24 was predictive of lung deterioration and a higher baseline CCL24 level was associated with higher 10-year SSc-related mortality.

This novel mechanism of action further adds to our understanding of how multi-layer dressings such as ALLEVYN LIFE work when used prophylactically for PIP.1

Key Points: 
  • This novel mechanism of action further adds to our understanding of how multi-layer dressings such as ALLEVYN LIFE work when used prophylactically for PIP.1
    “Based on my extensive, decades-long research in pressure ulcer/injury prevention, I am certain that an effective prevention dressing must contain a shear mitigation mechanism,” said Amit Gefen, Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Tel Aviv University.
  • “My recent study published in the International Wound Journal on ALLEVYN LIFE Dressing revealed the role of its unique internal frictional layer-on-layer sliding which, together with its specific construct and material composition, facilitate effective shear mitigation.”
    “Pressure injuries have a high burden on patients and healthcare systems,” said Rohit Kashyap, President, Advanced Wound Management at Smith+Nephew.
  • A new metric, frictional energy absorber effectiveness (FEAE), was also introduced to quantify the total mechanical energy dissipation of ALLEVYN LIFE Dressing.1
    This newly discovered mechanism of action for ALLEVYN LIFE Dressing further adds, and gives context to, the already existing wealth of clinical evidence9 for its capabilities in PIP that demonstrate significant reduction in pressure injury incidence.
