Celldex Therapeutics, Inc. Research Report

On July 1, 2013, Celldex Therapeutics Inc. (Celldex) reported that the first patient has been dosed in its pilot study of CDX-1135 (a soluble form of human complement receptor type 1) in dense deposit disease (DDD). According to the Company, DDD is an ultra-rare, progressive kidney disease that results in kidney failure in the majority of affected individuals, and is caused by dysregulation of the C3 Convertase, a major early component of the alternative pathway of complement. J.H. Smith, M.D., said, "There are currently no treatments and nearly half of all patients progress to end-stage renal disease within 10 years of presentation, often spending the rest of their lives on dialysis. In a mouse model of dense deposit disease, CDX-1135 has been shown to control the abnormal complement activity and to reduce deposits in the kidneys. We are optimistic that if we can control complement activation earlier in the disease course and at a critical step in the complement pathway, CDX-1135 may be able to restore kidney function and provide long term disease control-a long-awaited outcome for patients, their families and physicians."
