Tuesday, March 29, 2022

BASEL, Switzerland, March 29, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VectivBio Holding AG (“VectivBio”) (Nasdaq: VECT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering novel transformational treatments for severe rare conditions, today presented new clinical data demonstrating the potential of apraglutide, a next-generation, long-acting GLP-2 analog, as a novel treatment for short bowel syndrome with intestinal failure (SBS-IF) patients who have impaired renal function. The data were presented as a poster at the 2022 American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Conference (ASPEN), taking place in Seattle, Washington and virtually on March 26-29, 2022.

Key Points: 
  • The data were presented as a poster at the 2022 American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Conference (ASPEN), taking place in Seattle, Washington and virtually on March 26-29, 2022.
  • However, currently available GLP-2 therapy requires dose reduction and may not be suitable for these patients with moderate and severe renal impairment and end-stage renal disease.
  • As a next-generation GLP-2 analog peptide, apraglutide is metabolized into small peptides and amino acids via catabolic pathways, similar to endogenous GLP-2.
  • Importantly, these results are also clinically significant, as they show that apraglutide does not require dose adjustment for SBS-IF patients with and without renal impairment.
