Merimepodib is shown to decrease viral production of COVID-19 coronavirus more than remdesivir at clinically meaningful drug concentrations in pre-clinical testing.
Article highlights recent work done in laboratory studies of COVID-19 with merimepodib at the Galveston National Laboratory at The University of Texas Medical Branch
Westport, CT – April 23, 2020 – BioSig Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BSGM) today announced that an article titled, “The IMPDH inhibitor merimepodib has similar antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro to the adenosine analogue remdesivir” was accepted by F1000 Research, an online peer-reviewed life sciences journal publishing program in biology and medicine.
This manuscript is authored by Natalya Bukreyeva, Rachel A. Sattler, Emily K. Mantlo, John T. Manning, Cheng Huang and Slobodan Paessler of the UTMB Galveston National Laboratory and Dr. Jerome Zeldis of ViralClear Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“ViralClear”) as a corresponding author.
The article highlights emerging pre-clinical data generated under contract with Galveston National Laboratory at The University of Texas Medical Branch. The work was started with Trek Therapeutics and after merimepodib was acquired by ViralClear has been continued by ViralClear.
“The concentrations of merimepodib used in the cell culture studies described in this article are achievable in humans by our oral solution formulation,” said Dr. Zeldis, Executive Chair and Founder of ViralClear Pharmaceuticals, Inc. “We are now exploring whether remdesivir and merimepodib are synergistic in this in vitro model. We look forward to starting our first clinical trial in COVID-19 patients upon receiving FDA clearance to commence with the proposed phase 2 trial.”
Vero cells in tissue culture were pre-treated with two concentrations (2.5 and 5 µM) of either merimepodib or remdesivir for 4 hours before the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus was added. The amount of virus released to the media was measured at baseline and 16 hours and 24 hours after infection. At 16 hours, a significant reduction in viral production was observed for both concentrations of merimepodib (1.9 log decrease in titer, p = 0.003 and 2.1 log decrease in titer, p = 0.001) but only at the higher concentration of remdesivir (1 log decrease in titer, p = 0.103 and 2.1-log decrease in titer, p = 0.001). At 24 hours both concentrations of both drugs significantly reduced viral production; however, 2.5 µM remdesivir reduced viral titer by 1.5 logs (p = 0.002) as compared to a decrease of 3.9 logs for 5 µM remdesivir (p < 0.001), whereas 2.5 and 2.7 log reductions (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively) were observed for the 2.5 and 5 µM concentrations of merimepodib.
Merimepodib, a broad-spectrum anti-viral candidate, demonstrated strong activity against COVID-19 in cell cultures in laboratory testing and additional antiviral studies are underway. Merimepodib was previously in development as a treatment for chronic hepatitis C and psoriasis by Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated (Vertex), with a 12 clinical trials conducted (including 315 chronic hepatitis C patients, 24 psoriasis patients, and 98 healthy volunteers) and an extensive preclinical safety package completed . ViralClear intends to pursue development of this agent for the treatment of COVID-19 through FDA-approved clinical trials in Q2 2020.

– Commercialization and install plan ahead of schedule
– Installations at new centers are driving patient enrollments and clinical data collection
Westport, CT – February 19, 2020 — BioSig Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: BSGM) (“BioSig” or the “Company”), a medical technology company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to improve signal fidelity and uncover the full range of ECG and intra-cardiac signals, today announced that the Company successfully completed 100 patient cases with its PURE EP(tm) System.
The Company initiated its first clinical trial in November 2019, and is currently enrolling patients at Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center and Mayo Clinic’s Florida campus. Earlier in 2019 the Company conducted patient cases at Indiana University School of Medicine, Greenville Memorial Hospital, Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital and Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center. The Company’s PURE EP(tm) System was used during the procedures on patients with persistent atrial fibrillation, ischemic ventricular tachycardias, PVC, atypical flutters and other types of complex arrhythmias.
Clinical observations collected with PURE EP(tm) System were recently presented by Andrea Natale, M.D., Executive Medical Director, Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center during the 25th Annual International AF Symposium. Management is encouraged by the level of interest in commercial deployments from over 40 leading U.S. based medical centers generated at this event.
“We are responding to the requests in a methodical fashion in order to assess and meet the needs of these centers. We are running ahead of our plans stated in our November 2019 shareholder letter,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies, Inc. The Company’s most recent Shareholder Letter stated the intentions to install PURE EP(tm) System at up to nine new centers leading up to the Heart Rhythm Society’s annual convention in May 2020.
The PURE EP(tm) System is a computerized system intended for acquiring, digitizing, amplifying, filtering, measuring and calculating, displaying, recording and storing of electrocardiographic and intracardiac signals for patients undergoing electrophysiology (EP) procedures in an EP laboratory. The PURE EP(tm) System aims to minimize noise and artifacts and acquire high-fidelity cardiac signals. Improving fidelity of acquired cardiac signals may potentially increase the diagnostic value of these signals, thereby possibly improving accuracy and efficiency of the EP studies and related procedures.

Second Center to Report Positive Clinical Experience with PURE EP(tm) System
Santa Monica, CA – April 16, 2019 — BioSig Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: BSGM), a medical device company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to address unmet needs for the electrophysiology (EP) marketplace, today announced that the Company successfully conducted patient cases using PURE EP(tm) System at Greenville Memorial Hospital, part of Prisma Health System. PURE EP(tm) System is the Company’s FDA cleared proprietary electrocardiogram and intracardiac signal acquisition and amplification system. The patient procedures were conducted by Andrew Brenyo, M.D., FHRS.
“Over the last two days I have been amazingly surprised at the fidelity and utility of the BioSig’s PURE EP(tm) System. I made sure to use it in cases of the highest complexity and found in more than one circumstance the behavior of the system such that I could visualize waveform signals that I could not on my usual recording system. This led me towards a better understanding of a tachycardia event. I would count myself lucky to have had this eye-opening experience highlighting the signals that I have been missing.” commented Dr. Brenyo.
The PURE EP(tm) System was used during the procedures on patients with ischemic ventricular tachycardias, atrial fibrillation, PVC and atypical flutters, and conducted in parallel with Abbott’s EnSite Precision(tm) and Biosense Webster’s (Johnson & Johnson) CARTO(tm) 3 cardiac mapping systems.
“Dr. Brenyo’s use of the PURE EP(tm) System allowed us to see high frequency, low amplitude signals during more advanced arrhythmia cases and repeat procedures,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies. “Positive clinical experience with of our technology in the medical centers with diverse patient profiles is key to a strong market positioning. We believe that more clinical experience, delivered by the next set of centers scheduled to use PURE EP(tm) System in the coming months, will allow us to gain additional insight into our key value proposition and deliver on our strategic goals in the second half of the year.”

(NASDAQ: BSGM), a medical device company developing a proprietary biomedical signal processing platform designed to address an unmet technology need for the $4.6 billion electrophysiology (EP) marketplace, today announced that the Company has signed an agreement with Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute (TCAI) at St. David’s Medical Center in Austin, Texas to conduct First-in-Human studies using the PURE EP™ System.
These First-in-Human studies are aimed at validating the key value proposition elements of the PURE EP™ System that have already been established in pre-clinical studies and published to date in a number of journals, including The Journal of Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management. Collected data and physician experience arising from the First-in-Human studies will be documented and presented in the form of publications, clinical abstracts or late-breaking news.
Commencement of First-in-Human studies is the initial step in the Company’s targeted commercial launch of its first product, PURE EP™ System. The PURE EP™ System is a computerized system intended for acquiring, digitizing, amplifying, filtering, measuring and calculating, displaying, recording and storing of electrocardiographic and intracardiac signals for patients undergoing electrophysiology (EP) procedures in an EP laboratory. The PURE EP™ System aims to minimize noise and artifacts, and acquire high-fidelity cardiac signals. Improving fidelity of acquired cardiac signals may potentially increase the diagnostic value of these signals, thereby possibly improving accuracy and efficiency of the EP studies and related procedures. First-in-Human studies will be conducted at TCAI.
Andrea Natale M.D., F.A.C.C., F.H.R.S., F.E.S.C., Executive Medical Director, Texas Cardiac Arrhythmia Institute at St. David’s Medical Center will conduct the First-in-Human study.
A world recognized leader in the field of electrophysiology, Dr. Natale is known as a dedicated clinician, academician and researcher. He is an author of over 600 publications related to treatments of arrhythmia. Prior to joining TCAI, Dr. Natale was a member of the Cardiovascular Medicine Department at the Cleveland Clinic from 1999 to 2007, and served as Section Head for the Department of Cardiac Pacing and Electrophysiology and as Medical Director for the Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Atrial Fibrillation. In 2006, Dr. Natale was named to the Food and Drug Administration’s Task Force on Atrial Fibrillation.
“To better understand complex arrhythmia disease states, the ability to detect the smallest of electrical activity in various clinical situations has been a critical need for our industry. I am looking forward to the possibility that the PURE EP System will uncover these signals and advance treatment options so physicians can make more informed decisions for our patients,” commented Dr. Natale.
“BioSig reached another important milestone after achieving FDA clearance in August 2018 and uplisting to Nasdaq in September 2018. We opened an office in Austin, TX, earlier this year in anticipation of our present needs, and are now focused on providing TCAI full support during the First-in-Human use of our technology, which will preface our commercial launch in the U.S. in May 2019. Dr. Natale inspired the founding of our Company and has chaired our Scientific Advisory Board since 2011. We are proud to be working with Dr. Natale and his team during this important stage of our Company’s growth,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies.

Santa Monica, CA, Aug. 14, 2018 – BioSig Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: BSGM), announced that the Company has received 510(k) clearance for its first product, PURE EP System, from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
The non-invasive PURE EP System is a computerized system intended for acquiring, digitizing, amplifying, filtering, measuring and calculating, displaying, recording and storing of electrocardiographic and intracardiac signals for patients undergoing electrophysiology (EP) procedures in an EP laboratory. The system is indicated for use under the supervision of licensed healthcare practitioners who are responsible for interpreting the data. The PURE EP System aims to minimize noise and artifacts, and acquire high-fidelity cardiac signals. Improving cardiac signals may potentially increase the diagnostic value of these signals, thereby possibly improving accuracy and efficiency of the EP studies and related procedures.
To date, BioSig has performed twelve pre-clinical studies at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, three at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, CA, and one at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York, NY. BioSig signed a 10-year collaboration agreement with Mayo Clinic in 2017 that will enable the Company to advance the platform and expand its capabilities into other areas of clinical importance. The Journal of Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management published several years of pre-clinical data (https://www.biosigtech.com/technology/publications) conducted at Mayo Clinic.
Minnetronix, BioSig’s manufacturing partner in St. Paul, MN, has produced initial systems that will allow the Company to enter the market in the U.S. with selected sites.
“Our PURE EP System is the culmination of many years of scientific research and business development efforts. It is our goal to provide tangible benefits to electrophysiologists and improve the current standards of EP procedures in the clinical setting. We are excited to bring the advanced platform to the U.S. market,” commented Kenneth L. Londoner, Chairman and CEO of BioSig Technologies, Inc.
One of the most common reasons for an EP procedure is the diagnosis and treatment of atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation is the most common arrhythmia currently affecting 33.5 million people worldwide, with 6.1 million people in the U.S. Atrial fibrillation increases the risk of stroke by 4 to 5 times and contributes to ca. 750,000 hospitalizations per year. According to the 2016 HRI Global Opportunities in Medical Devices & Diagnostics report, the current market of EP is estimated at $4.6 billion and growing at 10.5% rate annually.
On August 1, 2018 the Company announced its intention to uplist to the Nasdaq exchange. The Company expects to be trading on Nasdaq in 2018.
The Company recently filed an omnibus patent with the leading patent law firm, Sterne Kessler Goldstein & Fox in Washington, DC that thoroughly protects the Company’s technology.
