Qu Biologics’ Immunomodulator Improves Fatty Liver Disease
(GlobeNewswire)
- "Qu Biologics Inc...is pleased to report exciting data demonstrating that Qu Biologics’ QBECO SSI markedly improves fatty liver disease and its deleterious consequences in an animal model of preexisting obesity...In a series of studies at McMaster, Dr. Schertzer’s research group demonstrated that treatment with QBECO SSI resulted in a marked reduction in liver fat, inflammation, and fibrosis in fatty liver disease...Qu’s QBECO SSI is designed to work in a very different way by restoring innate immune function to directly clear not just fat infiltration but inflammation and fibrosis as well. Through this very novel mechanism, it is possible that Qu’s QBECO SSI may provide a more optimal way to clear inflammation and fibrosis to prevent the major sequalae of MAFLD and MASH in these challenging diseases."

Qu Biologics’ Site Specific Immunomodulator Enables CAR T-cell Cancer Efficacy in Solid Tumor
(GlobeNewswire)
- "Qu Biologics...is pleased to report exciting survival data using a combination of Qu Biologics’ QBECO SSI and CAR T-cell therapy in laboratory models of aggressive cancer. The study was conducted in collaboration with the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine). In this experimental study, scientists demonstrated that combining QBECO SSI with CAR T-cell therapy significantly improved survival rates compared to CAR T-cell therapy alone, achieving an impressive 80% survival rate after 31 days of treatment. In contrast, the survival rate for CAR T-cell therapy alone was notably low, falling to 0% after just 18 days of treatment. These study results are important because CAR T-cell therapy, while very effective in certain kinds of blood cancer, has not been effective in solid tumors, which represent more than 95% of all cancers."

Qu Biologics and Foundation Medicine Collaborate to Impact the Care of Patients with Late-Stage Colorectal Cancer
(GlobeNewswire)
- "Qu Biologics Inc...and Foundation Medicine, Inc. are pleased to announce a partnership aimed to impact the care of patients with late-stage colorectal cancer undergoing surgery...Qu Biologics is currently enrolling patients with late-stage colorectal cancer undergoing surgical resection of liver metastases in a randomized, placebo-controlled Phase II multicenter trial (PERIOP-06) to assess the effectiveness of QBECO SSI in reducing post-operative immune suppression and improving cancer outcomes. The engagement with Foundation Medicine will enable genomic profiling at both the genomic and transcriptomic levels of patients participating in the trial to predict response to Qu’s first-in-class immunotherapy and molecularly assess minimal residual disease longitudinally. This unique study will enable assessment of the relationships between the results of Foundation Medicine’s comprehensive genomic profiling, the change in patients’ immune..."

Tracking the fate of bacteria-derived site-specific immunomodulators by positron emission tomography.
(PubMed, Nucl Med Biol)
- "Radiolabeling of SSIs allows for longitudinal in vivo imaging of biodistribution and trafficking. PET imaging revealed differential biodistribution of the SSIs based on the organotropism of the bacteria from which the SSI is derived. Trafficking from the site of injection to the targeted site is in part mediated via the lymphatics and involves macrophages and neutrophils."

Immune Stimulation Using a Gut Microbe-Based Immunotherapy Reduces Disease Pathology and Improves Barrier Function in Ulcerative Colitis.
