SAB Biotherapeutics (SABS) highlighted multiple presentations made at the 61st Annual Meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes held from September 15-19, 2025. The Company had four oral presentations, as well as one invited presentation at an INNODIA-hosted symposium at EASD. On September 15, 2025, Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of SAB BIO, Alexandra Kropotova, M.D., presented at the EASD INNODIA-hosted symposium, “Working to Change the Lives of People Impacted by Type 1 Diabetes Through Unique Disease-Modifying Therapy”, on September 16, 2025, Dr. Kropotova presented “Immunomodulation without Sustained Lymphodepletion: SAB-142, a Fully Human Anti-Thymocyte Globulin”, and on September 18, 2025, presented “Mechanism of Action of a Fully Human Anti-Thymocyte Globulin, SAB-142, for the Treatment of Type 1 Diabetes”. In all three presentations, Dr. Kropotova discussed how SAB-142 demonstrated a clinically validated, multi-specific mechanism of action with sustained immunomodulation in a Phase 1 clinical study. Further, SAB-142 does not cause a sustained lymphodepletion unlike rabbit ATG, which causes a decrease in CD4+ T-cells for up to two years. The Phase 1 study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single- and multiple-ascending dose, adaptive design clinical study in 68 healthy volunteers and patients with established T1D. Based on results from the study, SAB-142 has the potential to be a best-in-class T1D immunotherapy. On September 18, 2025, Eric Sandhurst, Ph.D., Director, Program Management, at SAB BIO presented, “Novel Pharmacokinetic Assay for Measuring SAB-142, a Fully Human Anti-Thymocyte Globulin”, showing SAB-142 demonstrates a dose-proportional and reproductible pharmacokinetic profile, as measured by a novel PK assay that was validated for accuracy, precision, selectivity and range. Specifically, the study found that SAB-142 offers the optimal combination of a short PK profile and a sustained immunomodulatory effect out to Day 120 and that there were no major differences in the SAB-142 PK profile between healthy volunteers and T1D patients. Additionally, at EASD, results from the INNODIA-sponsored MELD-ATG study confirmed the disease-modifying potential of rabbit ATG in new-onset Stage 3 autoimmune T1D patients. The trial met its primary endpoint of C-peptide preservation at 12 months with the 2.5 mg/kg dose, while also identifying 0.5 mg/kg as the minimum effective low dose. In addition, a favorable trend in metabolic outcomes was observed with statistically significant results for HbA1C improvement vs. placebo with the minimum effective low dose.
