The full manuscript of the 3,384 word paper (12 minute read) can be accessed at: https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.net/_bb1813af0e2259d25b277b0e9f6c42b2/sigyntherapeutics/db/927/7595/pdf/Sigyn+Therapy+050724.pdf
The introduction of the paper includes the following content:
When we designed Sigyn TherapyTM, we envisioned a medical device that could overcome the limitations of previous blood purification technologies to treat life-threatening conditions that are beyond the reach of drugs. Along with the efforts of our dedicated team, contributions from science advisors, collaborators and shareholders have helped to advance our vision toward reality.
Consider that in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we progressed Sigyn TherapyTM from concept through initial product development and then completed a series of five invitro study programs that validated the ability of Sigyn TherapyTM to extract twelve relevant therapeutic targets from human blood plasma. Subsequently, we completed first-in-mammal studies at the University of Michigan and then leveraged dialysis industry relationships to establish the treatment protocol, clinical site locations, and principal investigators for first-in-human studies of Sigyn TherapyTM.
In parallel with these achievements, we designed ChemoPrepTM, a device to improve the delivery of cancer chemotherapy, ChemoPureTM to reduce chemotherapy toxicity, and we then introduced the ImmunePrepTM platform to expand the use and enhance the performance of immunotherapeutic antibodies, which account for 9 of the top 15 selling cancer drugs. While these therapeutic candidates will be the subject of future communications, the focus of this paper is Sigyn TherapyTM. Beyond our mission to save lives, I believe we have created a foundation for value creation.
Sincerely, Jim

Introduction
Sigyn TherapyTM is a novel hemoadsorption technology designed to extract pathogen sources of life-threatening inflammation from the bloodstream in concert with dampening down dysregulated immune responses that are pathogen induced. Our candidate treatment indications are not addressed with drug therapies and include endotoxemia, sepsis, and drug-resistant viral and bacterial infections.
Subsequent to our completion of pre-clinical invitro and first-in-mammal studies, we established the treatment protocol and identified clinical site locations to support first-in-human feasibility studies of Sigyn TherapyTM in dialysis dependent end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with endotoxemia. Endotoxemia is associated with cardiovascular disease, infection, and sepsis. These are the three leading causes of early death in the ESRD patient population. The successful completion of our feasibility study would set the stage for pivotal efficacy studies to seek potential market clearance for Sigyn TherapyTM to treat endotoxemia and other candidate treatment indications.
Sigyn TherapyTM Notable Features
- Broad-spectrum extraction of viral pathogens, bacterial toxins, hepatic toxins, inflammatory cytokines, and other mediators of inflammation from the bloodstream.
- Highly efficient mechanism. Sigyn TherapyTM processes the entire bloodstream ~15 times during a four-hour treatment.
- Substantial capture capacity. Sigyn TherapyTM incorporates a formulation of adsorbent components with 200,000+ square meters (~50 acres) of surface area on which to capture and remove therapeutic targets from the bloodstream.
- Sigyn TherapyTM is delivered for use on dialysis and continuous renal replacement machines already located in hospitals and clinics around the world.
- To optimize potential scalability, Sigyn Therapy™ is comprised of non-biological components that are readily available from established industry vendors.
- Early clinical opportunities in ESRD as Sigyn TherapyTM can be administered in series with normally schedule dialysis treatments to conveniently treat conditions that shorten the lives of ESRD patients.
About Sigyn Therapeutics™
Sigyn Therapeutics is a development-stage medical technology company headquartered in San Diego, California. The Company’s therapeutic candidates are each designed to overcome a clearly defined limitation in healthcare. These include the ImmunePrepTM platform, ChemoPrepTM, ChemoPureTM, and Sigyn TherapyTM.
ImmunePrepTM is a development-stage commercialization platform to enhance and extend the performance of immunotherapeutic antibodies, which account for nine of the top 15 best-selling cancer treatment drugs. ChemoPrepTM is designed to optimize the delivery of chemotherapy, the most commonly administered drug to treat cancer, while ChemoPureTM extracts off-target chemotherapy from the bloodstream to reduce patient toxicity.
Sigyn TherapyTM is a novel blood purification technology being advanced to treat pathogen-associated conditions that are not addressed with drug therapies. In vitro studies have demonstrated the ability of Sigyn TherapyTM to reduce the circulating prevalence of twelve pathogen and inflammatory disease targets from human blood plasma. Based on these outcomes, candidate treatment indications include drug resistant viral and bacterial infections, endotoxemia, and sepsis, the leading cause of hospital deaths in the United States. First-in-human feasibility studies of Sigyn TherapyTM plan to enroll end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with endotoxemia and concurrent inflammation, which are highly prevalent and associated with increased mortality in the ESRD population.
