The clinical data for VGA039 was showcased today in an oral presentation at the 32nd International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis Congress, held from June 22-26 in Bangkok, Thailand. The reported data is part of the VIVID clinical program, originating from the initial study phase involving healthy volunteers. The subsequent phase, now in progress, involves VWD patients in the multinational Phase 1 study of VGA039. Results from this Phase 1 study in healthy subjects revealed the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of VGA039, which support easy subcutaneous administration and demonstrated nearly 100% bioavailability via this route, along with a positive safety and tolerability profile.

"We are enthusiastic about the ongoing development of VGA039 as the prospective first subcutaneous treatment for VWD, aiming to lessen the significant treatment burden affecting VWD patients and their families," stated Jeanette Cesta, Executive Director of the VWD Connect Foundation. "We stand with the patient community in advocating for the progression of new treatments that bring future hope."

"We are thrilled to present these initial clinical results for VGA039. The high subcutaneous bioavailability and favorable pharmacokinetic attributes of VGA039 support its use for convenient subcutaneous prophylactic dosing for VWD," remarked Gary Patou, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Star Therapeutics. "We are eager to proceed with our VIVID clinical program studying VGA039 in VWD patients."

VGA039 holds promise as a versatile hemostatic therapy potentially addressing various bleeding disorders, including von Willebrand disease. As an antibody therapy administered subcutaneously with convenient dosing, VGA039 could significantly alleviate the treatment burden for patients.
