Titel Kiadis Pharma notice of annual general meeting of shareholders
Bericht Kiadis Pharma notice of annual general meeting of shareholders Amsterdam, The Netherlands, May 17, 2016 – Kiadis Pharma N.V. (“Kiadis Pharma” or the “Company”) (Euronext Amsterdam and Brussels: KDS), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing innovative T-cell immunotherapy treatments for blood cancers and inherited blood disorders, today announces that it will hold its annual general meeting of shareholders on June 28, 2016 at 10:00 CEST at the Amsterdam Stock Exchange (Euronext), Beursplein 5, 1012 JW Amsterdam, The Netherlands. About Kiadis Pharma Kiadis Pharma is focused on cell-based immunotherapy products for the treatment of blood cancers and inherited blood disorders. The Company’s products have the potential to address the risks and limitations connected with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), namely graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), cancer relapse, opportunistic infections and limited matched donor availability. The Company believes that HSCT could become a first-choice treatment for blood cancers, inherited blood disorders and possibly autoimmune diseases and solid organ transplantations. In April 2016, the Company reported positive Phase II results with its lead product ATIR101™ in patients with blood cancer. The data confirmed that ATIR101™ does not cause grade III-IV GVHD and significantly reduces Transplant Related Mortality while Overall Survival is significantly improved. ATIR101™ has been granted Orphan Drug Designations both in the US and Europe. The Company’s second product candidate, ATIR201™, addresses inherited blood disorders with an initial focus on thalassemia, a disease which results in destruction of red blood cells in patients. ATIR201™ is expected to enter Phase I/II clinical development in the second half of 2016.
