Longeveron Inc. (NASDAQ: LGVN), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing cellular therapies for chronic, aging-related and life-threatening conditions, today announced an abstract regarding the Lomecel-B Phase 2a trial in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) has been accepted for a poster presentation at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference (AAIC), being held July 31-August 4, 2022 in San Diego, California, as well as virtually.

“We are pleased that the AAIC—the premier organization in AD—has accepted our poster describing the design of Longeveron’s second study in Alzheimer’s Disease. Enrollment is currently ongoing in the Phase 2a trial, and we are excited about the potential of Lomecel-B as a treatment for this important unmet medical need,” said Chris Min, M.D., Ph.D., Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Officer.

Earlier this year, Longeveron published a peer-reviewed study of its Phase 1b Alzheimer's Disease trial in Alzheimer’s & Dementia® showing that the trial met its primary endpoint, demonstrating that Lomecel-B was well tolerated in this patient population.

Details of the poster to be presented at the 2022 AAIC are as follows:
