Targeting Diseases Associated With Chronic Glucose Imbalance
RZ358 for Congenital Hyperinsulinism (HI)
Congenital HI is over-production of insulin resulting in life-threatening hypoglycemia and neurologic damage
RZ358 is an antibody with a unique MOA designed and uniquely suited to treatment hyperinsulinism
Open-labelPhase 2b study, with top-line data expected in 1Q 2022
Orphan designation in US and EU, Pediatric Rare Disease designation
Potential for expanded indications: post bariatric surgery hypoglycemia, insulinoma
RZ402 for Diabetic Macular Edema (DME)
Microvascular complication of diabetes results in breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier and eventual blindness
Potent, selective small molecule kallikrein inhibitor
Oral therapy offering the potential to treat DME earlier and to address the disease at the vascular source
Phase 1 single dose study complete and demonstrated good bioavailability, with drug levels that safely exceeded target efficacious concentrations safely, supporting potential for once daily dosing
Ongoing Phase 1b repeat-dose study, with results expected in 1Q 2022
Potential for expanded indications: diabetic retinopathy, hereditary angioedema, systemic inflammatory syndromes and others
Two clinical stage programs with
transformative therapies targeting diseases of dysglycemia

Rezolute, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, which is developing therapies for metabolic diseases related to chronic glucose imbalance. The Companyâs lead clinical asset, RZ358, is in late-stage development for the treatment of congenital hyperinsulinism (HI), an ultra-rare pediatric genetic disorder characterized by excessive production of insulin by the pancreas in Phase III. RZ358 is an intravenously administered human monoclonal antibody that binds to a unique site (allosteric) on the insulin receptor in insulin target tissues, such as in the liver, fat and muscle. Its second clinical asset, RZ402, is an oral plasma kallikrein inhibitor (PKI) being developed as a therapy for the chronic treatment of diabetic macular edema (DME) in Phase II. RZ402 is designed to be a once daily oral therapy for the treatment of DME and unlike the anti-VEGF therapies, RZ402 targets the Kallikrein-Kinin System to address inflammation and vascular leakage.
