SINGAPORE, May 05, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ASLAN Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ASLN), a clinical-stage immunology focused biopharmaceutical company developing innovative treatments to transform the lives of patients, today announced that an abstract on ASLAN004 has been accepted for poster presentation at the upcoming 2021 Society for Investigative Dermatology (SID) virtual meeting between 3-8 May, 2021. The data is available to view during the Pharmacology and Drug Development segment on 6 May, 2.30pm to 4pm EST, and will be published in the fall edition of the Journal of Investigative Dermatology.
The late-breaking abstract accepted for poster presentation (Abstract #LB793), titled “A phase 1, open-label, single ascending dose study in healthy subjects of the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ASLAN004, a novel IgG anti-IL-13 receptor alpha 1 Inhibitor”, will be presented by Dr Lawrence Soon-U Lee, first author of the abstract. Other authors of the SAD abstract include Dr Hartina Hajireen from the Clinical Trials & Research Unit, Changi General Hospital, and Dr Alison Ward, from ASLAN Pharmaceuticals.
ASLAN004 is a novel, fully human monoclonal antibody that targets the IL-13 receptor α1 subunit, or IL-13Rα1, with potential to be a first-in-class therapy for atopic dermatitis and asthma. During the SID meeting, new data will be presented from the Single Ascending Dose (SAD) healthy volunteer study, completed in 2019, that demonstrated ASLAN004’s favourable tolerability profile as an IL-13Rα1 inhibitor and as a differentiated treatment method for atopic dermatitis patients. The SAD data readout supported ASLAN’s decision to initiate the ongoing, phase 1b Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) study of ASLAN004.
The poster will be available to view online in the news and publications section of the ASLAN website at 2:30pm ET, 2:30am SGT.

About ASLAN004
ASLAN004 is a potential first-in-class human monoclonal antibody that binds to the IL-13 receptor α1 subunit (IL13Rα1), blocking signalling of two pro-inflammatory cytokines, IL-4 and IL-13, which are central to triggering symptoms of atopic dermatitis (AD), such as redness and itching of the skin. AD is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition which severely impacts quality of life for millions of children and adults globally. ASLAN004 is the only IL13Rα1 receptor in clinical development for the treatment of AD.
