Promising Research Data Suggest Potential of ImmuneRegen BioSciences’ Homspera™ as Co-therapeutic Agent
Data obtained by ImmuneRegen BioSciences on its Substance P analog – Homspera™ - suggests that the compound has potential value as a co-therapeutic agent or vaccine adjuvant for influenza and acute radiation syndrome therapeutics.

The Company believes that, in conjunction with a neuraminidase inhibitor such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu®, Roche Pharmaceuticals), Homspera might be an effective adjuvant therapeutic by decreasing the number of viruses at which this enzyme would need to be inhibited.

immuneregen.gifPotential also exists for Homspera to be used as an adjuvant therapy for cancer patients, as treatment often includes radiation following chemotherapy, in an attempt to kill more of the cancer cells.

Homspera™ is derived from modified Substance P - a naturally occurring peptide immunomodulator and homeostatic compound which can both improve the pulmonary function and stimulate the human immune system.

ImmuneRegen BioSciences, a wholly owned subsidiary of IR BioSciences Holdings, Inc. (OTC: IRBO), is a development stage biotechnology company focused on substances designed for use as countermeasures for bioterrorism threats.
