Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: LABT) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a novel class of fast-acting, broad-spectrum antimicrobials – the Bisphosphocin® class - to treat infectious diseases and reduce the threat posed by antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains, including MRSA, VRE, and others. For more information, please visit https://lakewoodamedex.com.About Nu-3 Nu-3 is Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics Inc.'s lead product being developed for the topical treatment of mildly infected diabetic foot ulcers (iDFU). Nu-3 belongs to a novel class of antimicrobials being developed by Lakewood-Amedex Biotherapeutics Inc. called the Bisphosphocin® class, which possess a unique mechanism of action that enables rapid elimination of a broad spectrum of bacteria, including resistant pathogens and biofilms. Data from initial exploratory clinical trials with Nu-3 using subclinical doses did not reveal any safety signals and showed a trend of positive antimicrobial response and improved wound healing. Based on these results, the company plans to conduct an initial Phase 2a safety and dose response study of Nu-3 followed by a placebo-controlled Phase 2b dose comparative study. This study is also designed to determine the most appropriate administration regimen for Nu-3 gel formation in mildly infected diabetic foot ulcers.Forward-Looking Statements This press release may contain forward-looking statements as defined by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
