- Drug:
- DM199
- Announced Date:
- February 20, 2025
- Indication:
- Chronic Kidney Disease Stage II or III
Announcement
DiaMedica Therapeutics Inc announced the peer-reviewed publication entitled:Recombinant human tissue kallikrein-1 for treating acute ischemic stroke and preventing recurrence (Kasner, et al.) which is now available online and is scheduled for print publication in the February 2025 issue of Stroke.
AI Summary
DiaMedica Therapeutics Inc. announced that a new peer-reviewed article, "Recombinant human tissue kallikrein-1 for treating acute ischemic stroke and preventing recurrence" (Kasner et al.), is now available online and will appear in the February 2025 issue of Stroke. This publication explains how DM199, a recombinant form of human tissue kallikrein-1, works to treat acute ischemic stroke by increasing collateral circulation and protecting brain tissue.
The study shows that DM199 boosts the production of bradykinin, a substance that dilates blood vessels in the brain, enhancing blood flow and promoting the formation of new blood vessels, which may help repair injured tissue. These findings provide important scientific insight into DM199’s potential to improve outcomes in stroke patients by enhancing blood circulation in the affected brain regions, offering a novel approach to stroke treatment.

Announcement
DiaMedica Therapeutics Inc. announced that it plans to expand its DM199 (rinvecalinase alfa; recombinant human tissue kallikrein-1 (rhKLK1)) clinical development program into preeclampsia.
AI Summary
DiaMedica Therapeutics Inc. announced plans to expand its DM199 clinical development program into preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy-related condition marked by high blood pressure and potential organ damage. DM199, a recombinant human tissue kallikrein-1 protein, has shown promise in lowering blood pressure and improving blood flow. Unlike small molecule anti-hypertensive drugs, DM199 is a large molecule that does not cross the placental barrier in animal studies, suggesting a safety advantage for pregnant women.
The company will launch a Phase 2 investigator-sponsored trial in the fourth quarter of 2024 to assess DM199’s safety and effectiveness in treating preeclampsia. The trial aims to enroll up to 120 participants at a cost-efficient price, with initial proof-of-concept results expected in the first half of 2025. This development could offer new hope for managing a condition that currently has no approved treatments in the U.S. or Europe.
