Golden, Colorado, Friday, April 3, 2020 3:00pm MDT – Reven, LLC, a biopharmaceutical company that is developing its flagship product Rejuveinix (RJX) for patients with vascular and metabolic related health conditions, announced today that it has submitted a proposal to the FDA to consider RJX as an adjunctive therapy for patients affected by COVID-19.
Peter Lange, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The urgent need to address the COVID-19 pandemic appears to demand our immediate initiative. Reven’s preparation of white papers to draw parallels from our Phase I data to cardiovascular signals has led us to realize RJX’s potential contribution to the COVID-19 crisis.” More specifically, Reven’s RJX product is aimed at calming the Cytokine storm inherent in COVID-19 patients which if unresolved, often leads to death.
Reven’s scientific team recognizes that many cytokine and inflammation signals can be considered as common to both fibrotic response in cardiovascular disease and viral induced inflammation leading to fibrotic pulmonary and cardiac complications. These measures of immune pro- and anti-inflammatory balance appear to also affect resilience when the body is affected by viral agents.
“We are confident that our approach can make a meaningful contribution to CTAP in this time of urgent need,” added Brian Denomme, Chief Operating Officer.
