WEXFORD, Pa., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: COEP) (the "Company" or "Coeptis"), a biopharmaceutical company developing innovative cell therapy platforms for cancer, autoimmune, and infectious diseases, today announced that results from their Phase 1 study evaluating DVX201, an allogeneic natural killer (NK) cell therapy, for the treatment of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 has been accepted for publication in Molecular Therapy Methods and Clinical Development.
Results from the clinical trial demonstrated the safety and feasibility of DVX201 as a potential treatment for patients with active SARS-CoV-2 infections. The following key findings are highlighted in the accepted manuscript:
" Despite advances in treatment and prevention strategies for SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19 still results in substantial morbidity in certain patient populations underscoring the ongoing need for additional therapeutic options, particularly among immune compromised individuals," said Joshua Hill, MD, associate professor and physician at Fred Hutch Cancer Center and corresponding author of the study. "Although the study was not designed to assess efficacy, our findings demonstrate the safety and potential utility of NK cell therapy as a complementary therapeutic strategy for viral infections in high-risk patients."
"We are very excited by these results and look forward to sharing the full findings in Molecular Therapy Methods and Clinical Development," said Dave Mehalick, President and CEO of Coeptis Therapeutic. "These positive results, along with our recently announced expanded license agreement with Deverra, further strengthens Coeptis' role in the fight against infectious diseases."
