Business Wire
Azitra, Inc. (NYSE American: AZTR), a clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative
therapies for precision dermatology, today announced the upcoming
late-breaking presentation related to ATR-04. The presentation by
Dr. Mary Spellman will take place on Thursday, September 26, 2024,
in a late-breaking oral session entitled “Development of a
Staphylococcus epidermidis strain for the topical treatment of
epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor-induced dermal
toxicity” at the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology
(EADV) Congress 2024 in Amsterdam.
ATR-04 is a live biotherapeutic product candidate consisting of
an S. epidermidis strain that was isolated from a healthy volunteer
and engineered to be safer by deleting an antibiotic resistance
gene and engineering auxotrophy to control the growth of ATR-04.
ATR-04 is in development for EGFRi-associated skin toxicity, which
is caused by the suppression of skin immunity by EGFRis and
subsequent inflammation and often elevated levels of
IL-36γ and S. aureus. There are approximately 150,000
patients suffering from EGFRi-induced skin toxicity in the United
States. Azitra has an active IND for a multicenter, randomized,
controlled Phase 1/2 clinical trial of ATR-04 in patients with
dermal toxicity due to EGFR inhibitors, and ATR-04 has received
Fast Track designation from the FDA.
The data in the oral presentation will showcase the preclinical
development of ATR-04 and details around the planned Phase 1/2
clinical trial in patients with dermal toxicity due to EGFR
inhibitors.
The presentation will be available on Azitra’s website at

be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements
include, without limitation, statements regarding the expected
timing of the presentation of data from the Phase 1b study of
ATR-12, the filing of an IND application, and the presentation of
data from our Phase 1b for ATR-04, the IND filing for ATR-01, the
timing of having a signed license agreement with Bayer, and
statements about our clinical and pre-clinical programs, and
corporate and clinical/pre-clinical strategies.
Any forward-looking statements in this press release are based
on current expectations, estimates and projections only as of the
date of this release and are subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
and adversely from those set forth in or implied by such
forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include,
but are not limited to that we may fail to successfully complete
our Phase 1/2 trial for ATR-04 and preclinical studies of other
product candidates and obtain required approval before
commercialization; our product candidates may not be effective;
there may be delays in regulatory approval or changes in regulatory
framework that are out of our control; our estimation of
addressable markets of our product candidates may be inaccurate; we
may fail to timely raise additional required funding; more
efficient competitors or more effective competing treatment may
emerge; we may be involved in disputes surrounding the use of our
intellectual property crucial to our success; we may not be able to
attract and retain key employees and qualified personnel; earlier
study results may not be predictive of later stage study outcomes;
and we are dependent on third-parties for some or all aspects of
our product manufacturing, research and preclinical and clinical
testing. Additional risks concerning Azitra's programs and
operations are described in our Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on
