Seelos Therapeutics (SEEL) to Collaborate with the Healey & AMG Center for ALS in an Expanded Access Program

September 30, 2022 10:01 AM EDT

Seelos Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SEEL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of therapies for central nervous system disorders and rare diseases, today announced it will collaborate with the Sean M. Healey & AMG Center for ALS in an Expanded Access Program (EAP) that will be fully funded by a grant from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) under the ACT for ALS.

"Being chosen to again collaborate with the Healey team on an EAP is a privilege and further supports our commitment to provide a meaningful contribution to the ALS community by continuing to explore investigational treatment options in this devastating disorder," said Raj Mehra Ph.D., Chairman and CEO of Seelos. "Through this EAP, we will be able to offer SLS-005 to people who are unable to meet the entry criteria for any clinical trials. Our hope, through this effort, is to collect additional data to help us advance this therapy through the clinic."

Under this EAP, Seelos plans to initially enroll 70 patients in a 24-week, open-label study to evaluate SLS-005 in persons with ALS in parallel to its ongoing Phase II/III study on the HEALEY Platform.
