GENEVA, SWITZERLAND / ACCESSWIRE / October 8, 2024 / RELIEF THERAPEUTICS Holding SA (SIX:RLF)(OTCQB:RLFTF)(OTCQB:RLFTY) (Relief, or the Company), a biopharmaceutical company committed to delivering innovative treatment options for select specialty, unmet and rare diseases, today announced promising preliminary results from its proof-of-concept, investigator-initiated clinical trial evaluating RLF-TD011 for the treatment of epidermolysis bullosa (EB), a rare genetic condition characterized by fragile skin and chronic wounds.
The study was designed to evaluate the effects of RLF-TD011 on microbiome diversity in wounds of patients with dystrophic and junctional EB. Microbiome analysis showed a statistically significant reduction in Staphylococcus aureus and an increase in beneficial bacteria in EB wounds, accompanied by a marked improvement in alpha microbiome diversity. A notable correlation between wound healing, specifically wound size reduction, and Staphylococcus aureus reduction was also observed. Further analyses will be available in the coming weeks.
Culture-based studies have shown that up to

ABOUT RLF-TD011
RLF-TD011 is a highly pure, stabilized hypochlorous acid solution developed using Relief's proprietary TEHCLO™ technology. With strong antimicrobial properties, RLF-TD011 is a sprayable, self-administered solution for targeted wound application while avoiding skin contact and cross-contamination. RLF-TD011 has shown efficacy in accelerating wound closure and reducing infections in clinical trials1. In preliminary cases, EB patients using RLF-TD011 showed improvements in blistering and tissue repair. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted it orphan drug designation for EB, and Relief plans to seek QIDP designation for extended market exclusivity.
ABOUT EPIDERMOLYSIS BULLOSA
Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a group of rare, inherited connective tissue disorders characterized by extreme skin fragility, leading to blistering and wounds from minor friction or injury. In severe cases, blisters can develop into chronic wounds or form in internal organs such as the mouth or esophagus. According to the National Epidermolysis Bullosa Registry, EB affects approximately 19.57 per million live births in the United States. Globally, EB affects about 500,000 people.
