IDOGEN

Idogen is a Swedish biotechnology company based in Lund. The Idogen share has been listed on Spotlight Stock Market since the 12th of June 2015 under the ticker IDOGEN and is traded through banks and stockbrokers. Idogen develops tolerogenic cell therapies to prevent the patient’s immune system from attacking biological agents, transplanted organs or the body’s own cells or tissues. The term “tolerogenic” refers to the immune system’s selective tolerance of a specific pathogenic or imm... une activating antigen following treatment with Idogen’s therapy. Idogen’s intention is to revolutionise the treatment of several disorders in which the body’s immune system does not function as it should, and for which there is a major unmet medical need – such as in autoimmune diseases, organ transplant rejection and in patients who have developed anti-drug antibodies. Idogen’s most advanced product candidate, IDO 8, is designed for patients with severe haemophilia A who have developed anti-drug antibodies against their critical treatment with coagulation factor VIII (factor VIII). The company also develops IDO T – a tolerogenic cell therapy to prevent organ transplant rejection, primarily kidney transplant rejection. IDO T is expected to reduce the need for immunosuppressive drugs and improve transplant survival, thereby reducing the risk of cancer and infections.More
