Prometic CEO Talks Plasminogen Deficiency

... 'RDR: What did the efficacy data show in those first 10 patients?
—Laurin: There was a 100% response in those 10 patients. It was a remarkable result. Patients walked into that trial with visible lesions or lesions documented by CAT Scan or X-ray. They saw their lesions get resolved, sometimes in hours or within a couple weeks.

The infusion of plasminogen does not restore the plasminogen to 100% but it does restore it to levels that provides enough to digest those lesions. We announced recently that those 10 patients have now competed over 48 weeks of treatment and there were no recurrences of any lesions as well as no adverse events throughout the program. So this is really impressive.

RDR: How is Ryplazim administered?
—Laurin: It is an infusion that initially will be given by a health professional but after 2 or 3 infusions we know that patients or their caregivers can usually administer the product at home. There will be home infusion centers for those who prefer that approach. The frequency of the administration will depend on the patient and their condition. For acute care to remove lesions, infusions every 3 or 4 days will be likely but once the lesions are out, the maintenance treatment needed to prevent lesions from coming back will vary from patient to patient—maybe every second or third week.'
