Critical Biologics Corporation (CBC) today announced the successful enrollment of the first four patients in its "first-in-man" clinical trial for Solinex[TM], an intravenous formulation of recombinant human plasma gelsolin (rhu-pGSN).
The preclinical and prognostic clinical data generated by CBC's founding scientists is very impressive, and the therapeutic potential of recombinant human plasma gelsolin looks to be extremely promising from every perspective.
The funds will enable CBC to advance its lead recombinant human plasma gelsolin (rhu-pGSN) targeted for the prevention of life-threatening critical care complications associated with low plasma gelsolin levels.
