Biora Therapeutics Announces Funding Agreement with Existing Investors

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Biora Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: BIOR), the biotech company reimagining therapeutic delivery, today announced the signing of financing agreements with its existing convertible notes holders.

“We appreciate the continued commitment of our existing noteholders, who have agreed to an additional investment in Biora that we expect will fund us to important milestones, including anticipated partnering with large pharma,” said Eric d’Esparbes, Chief Financial Officer of Biora Therapeutics. “Active pharma collaborator interest in our BioJet™ platform, and recent promising clinical trial results from our NaviCap™ platform, are drivers for this commitment.”

About Biora Therapeutics
Biora Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotech developing two smart pill-based therapeutics platforms: the NaviCap™ platform for colon-targeted treatment of IBD, designed to improve patient outcomes through treatment at the site of disease in the gastrointestinal tract, and the BioJet™ platform for oral delivery of large molecules, designed to replace injection with needle-free, oral delivery for better management of chronic diseases.

About the NaviCap™ Targeted Oral Delivery Platform and BT-600
Biora’s NaviCap™ platform for colon-targeted treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is designed to improve patient outcomes by increasing therapeutic activity in tissue at the site of disease while also reducing systemic uptake to improve safety.

BT-600 is a drug/device combination of the NaviCap™ device with a proprietary liquid formulation of tofacitinib, for the potential treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Biora’s Phase 1 clinical trial of BT-600 successfully demonstrated delivery throughout the colon in healthy participants, with lower systemic exposure as desired. Biora’s presentation of Phase 1 data, featuring key opinion leaders discussing the value of colon-targeted drug delivery for improving efficacy in UC, can be viewed here.

About the BioJet™ Systemic Oral Delivery Platform
Biora’s BioJet platform for oral delivery of large molecules is designed to replace injection with needle-free delivery for better management of chronic diseases. The BioJet platform uses an ingestible device the size of a multivitamin that can transit through the digestive tract and deliver therapeutics into the small intestine.

The BioJet device is designed to autonomously deliver a wide range of large molecules, such as proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids, in liquid formulation at multi-milligram doses, without requiring complex reformulation.
