Kamari Pharma Announces Abstracts Accepted for Presentation at the 81st Annual Meeting of the Society for Investigative Dermatology

Late breaking poster presentation includes Phase 1b clinical trial results demonstrating the safety and preliminary efficacy of KM-001, a topical TRPV3 inhibitor, for the treatment of palmoplantar keratoderma

Oral presentation highlights favorable in vitro and in vivo safety and efficacy data of novel TRPV3 inhibitors KM-001(topical) and KM-023 (oral) in preclinical 3D skin and mouse models

NESS ZIONA, Israel, April 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kamari Pharma, a privately-held clinical stage biotechnology company developing first and best-in-class treatments for rare and severe genetic skin diseases, today announced two abstracts reporting results for its novel TRPV3 inhibitors, KM-001(topical) and KM-023 (oral), have been selected for presentation at the 81st Annual Meeting of the Society for Investigative Dermatology (SID), being held May 15-18, 2024 in Dallas, TX, USA.

TRPV3 plays a central role in skin disease as it regulates proliferation, differentiation and barrier function of human skin. KM-001 and KM-023 are specific and selective TRPV3 inhibitors that address both molecular and local damage to the skin by regulating Ca²⁺ influx into the cell, thereby reconstructing the skin barrier and reducing inflammation. Kamari is currently developing KM-001 for the treatment of palmoplantar keratoderma and KM-023 for the treatment of Olmstead syndrome, severe keratoderma and Ichthyosis.
