Coya Therapeutics to Present at Upcoming Healthcare Conferences

Coya Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: COYA) (“Coya” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing biologics intended to enhance regulatory T cell (Treg) function, announces that CEO Howard Berman, Ph.D. will present at two upcoming healthcare conferences.

On September 26, 2024, Dr. Berman will participate in a panel discussion at Munsch Hardt’s 3rd Annual Texas Health Care Transactions Conference being held at the Houstonian Hotel in Houston, Texas. The panel is titled, “Affiliations with Hospital Systems: Exploring Paths to Collaboration and M&A,” and will begin at 1:15pm CT. This conference aims to connect more than 250 executives and thought leaders across today’s rapidly evolving health care industry, including top executives, practitioners, consultants, private equity investors, and venture capitalists. Investors can register here for the conference and gain access to this panel discussion.

On October 28, 2024, Dr. Berman and Dr. Stanley Appel, Chairman of Coya’s Scientific Advisory Board, will present at the inaugural Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) Summit: Advancements in Novel Therapeutics and Combination Therapy being held in Madrid, Spain at the Marriot Auditorium Hotel & Conference Center. At the summit, Drs. Berman and Appel will present data on COYA 302 and the role of Tregs in neurodegeneration. The summit is being held in alignment with the 2024 Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) conference also being held in Madrid at the same venue and being held from October 29 – November 1, 2024. The Company previously announced that results from a Gates Foundation and Alzheimer’s Association funded double-blind, placebo-controlled study in 38 patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s disease treated with low-dose interleukin-2 (LD IL-2) will be presented at CTAD by Dr. Alireza Faridar, Professor of Neurology at Houston Methodist and principal investigator, and will help guide further clinical development of COYA 302 for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

The ADDF Summit is an invite-only event that convenes and connects Alzheimer’s experts across the field who are focused on developing cutting edge new treatments under the biology of biology framework with the end goal of advancing the field towards a combination therapy and precision medicine approach. This event is a full-day, interactive collaboration of scientists, academia, industry and government professionals, and other pioneers who are passionate about advancing the path to a cure and will consist of scientific presentations, panel discussions, and a keynote session.

In May 2024, the Company received a $5 million strategic equity investment from the ADDF to support the development of COYA 302 for the treatment of Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD). COYA 302’s combination therapeutic approach aligns with the ADDF’s belief in combination therapy being the future of treatment for Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.

About Coya Therapeutics, Inc.

Headquartered in Houston, TX, Coya Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: COYA) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing proprietary treatments focused on the biology and potential therapeutic advantages of regulatory T cells (“Tregs”) to target systemic inflammation and neuroinflammation. Dysfunctional Tregs underlie numerous conditions, including neurodegenerative, metabolic, and autoimmune diseases, and this cellular dysfunction may lead to sustained inflammation and oxidative stress resulting in lack of homeostasis of the immune system.

Coya’s investigational product candidate pipeline leverages multiple therapeutic modalities aimed at restoring the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory functions of Tregs. Coya’s therapeutic platforms include Treg-enhancing biologics, Treg-derived exosomes, and autologous Treg cell therapy.

COYA 302 – the Company’s lead biologic investigational product or “Pipeline in a Product”– is a proprietary combination of COYA 301 (Coya’s proprietary LD IL-2) and proprietary CTLA4-Ig fusion protein (in-licensed from Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories) for subcutaneous administration with a unique dual mechanism of action that is now being developed for the treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Frontotemporal Dementia, Parkinson’s Disease, and Alzheimer’s Disease. Its multi-targeted approach enhances the number and anti-inflammatory function of Tregs and simultaneously lowers the expression of activated microglia and the secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators. This synergistic mechanism may lead to the re-establishment of immune balance and amelioration of inflammation in a sustained and durable manner that may not be achieved by either low-dose IL-2 or CTLA4-Ig alone.
