Immuron completes IMM-124E Phase 2 clinical trial
The inpatient challenge phase of the Travelan® clinical study led by Principal Investigator Dr Mohamed AlIbrahim at the Pharmaron CPC FDA inspected Clinical Research Facility Inpatient Unit located in Baltimore, Maryland US, has been completed. The double-blind study was separated into two cohorts of approx. 30 subjects (60 in total) dosed with Travelan® or placebo for two days prior to challenge and continuing dosing for a total of 7 days. All study participants were challenged with Escherichia coli, monitored for symptoms, and treated with antibiotics. Safety data at two weeks and 4 weeks post challenge has been collected and the final 6 month follow up interviews were completed. The Phase 2 clinical trial was designed to evaluate the safety and protective efficacy of Travelan® compared to a placebo in a controlled human infection model (CHIM). The primary efficacy outcome is prevention and/or reduction of moderate to severe diarrhea. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05933525. Topline clinical trial results demonstrate a 36.4% protective efficacy with single daily dose of Travelan® against Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) induced moderate to severe diarrhea compared to the placebo group (primary endpoint) even though the attack rate for this study was 37%, much lower than the planned 70%. The attack rates on previous Phase 2 (Otto et al. 2011) were 73% and 86% with protective efficacy of 90.9% and 76.7%. There was a 43.8% reduction in diarrhea of any severity in the Travelan® group compared to the Placebo group during the 5-day period post challenge which is approaching statistical significance; p=0.066. The number of cumulative adverse events per participant in the Travelan® group (58) was statistically significantly lower than the Placebo group (109); p<0.05. The Phase 2 clinical study data also supports the excellent safety and tolerability profile of Travelan®. Immuron will now proceed to hold an end of Phase 2 meeting with the U.S Food and Drug Administration to discuss the pivotal Phase 3 registration strategy and planned clinical trials including recommended dosing to support a Biologics License Application (BLA) for Travelan® as a prophylactic medicine for Travelers’ Diarrhea.
- Immuron completes in patient phase of CampETEC Phase 2 clinical trial
The NMRC has recently completed the in-patient stage of the campylobacter challenge clinical study. The clinical study was led by Principal Investigator Dr Kawsar Talaat, MD at the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) Center for Immunization Research (CIR) Inpatient Unit, located at the JHU Bayview Medical Campus, Baltimore, Maryland. U.S. A total of 30 participants were enrolled in the study, of which 27 participants were dosed with either the Investigational Medical Product or placebo and all subjects were challenged with Campylobacter. All study volunteers were treated with antibiotics and discharged from the clinic. The study participants returned as outpatients for several follow-up visits, with the last patient last visit completed in June 2024. Headline results from the clinical trial are anticipated to be reported in late August 2024/early September 2024. The Phase 2 clinical trial was designed to evaluate the safety and protective efficacy of the new product manufactured by Immuron compared to a placebo in a controlled human infection model (CHIM). The primary efficacy outcome is prevention and/or reduction of moderate to severe diarrhea. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT06122870.
Uniformed Services University Travelan[®] clinical field trial reaches 77% recruitment
USU’s Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Program (IDCRP) and the UK Ministry of Defense are jointly conducting the randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of Travelan[®] in Travelers’ Diarrhea. The P2TD study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of IMM-124E (Travelan[®] ) passive immunoprophylaxis verses a placebo, during deployment or travel to a high-TD risk region (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04605783). All study participants (866 in total) will be randomized to Travelan[®] or placebo (433 per arm).
The Problem : Travelers’ diarrhea (TD) remains a highly prevalent disease that impacts operational readiness of military personnel and is also debilitating to civilians traveling to high-risk destinations. In addition to its acute morbidity, TD is associated with acquisition of antimicrobial resistance genes and long-term sequelae. Current mitigation strategies including pre-travel counseling and antibiotics for prevention and treatment which have important limitations, and there are currently no licensed, pathogen-specific vaccines for TD prevention.
The Approach : Passive immunotherapy may offer safe and relatively inexpensive preventive strategies by promoting gut resistance to enteropathogens, and potentially lessening the use of antibiotics. USU’s Infectious Diseases Clinical Research Program (IDCRP) and the UK Ministry of Defense are jointly conducting the trial to evaluate the efficacy of Travelan® for TD prevention and inform strategies for Force Health Protection.
More than 77% of the target 866 study participants have been recruited. Topline results are anticipated in 1Q 2025.
Immuron submits pre-IND for IMM-529 to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
Immuron filed a pre-IND (investigational new drug) application with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for IMM-529 on 1 July 2024. The company is planning to submit a new IND to initiate the clinical development of IMM-529 for the treatment of CDI and prevention of recurrence of CDI. IMM-529 is the second therapeutic drug candidate the company has taken into the clinic and has been specifically developed to target (i) toxin B, (ii) spores and (iii) vegetative cells of Clostridioides Difficile (C. Diff) which are thought to be the primary cause of C. Diff disease recurrences. A research services agreement was executed with Monash University to assist with vaccine manufacture and stability testing of the Investigational Medical Product to support the pre-IND information package. A research services agreement was executed with VivoPharm Global Preclinical Services to conduct a GLP compliant toxicity study in rodents. The study protocol was submitted and approved by the Animal Ethics Committee and the study has been completed with no adverse findings reported.
Presentation at The Military Health System Research Symposium (MHSRS)
The MHSRS is the U.S. Department of Defense’s premier scientific meeting that focuses specifically on the unique medical needs of the Warfighter. This annual symposium brings together 3,000 healthcare professionals, researchers, U.S DoD leaders and decision markers as well as various funding bodies. The company attended the meeting as an Exhibitor and presented two posters at the event. One entitled ‘Clinical Evaluation of an Oral prophylactic for prevention of Travelers diarrhea in active-duty military assigned abroad.’ The company was also invited by the Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC) to showcase Immuron and its collaborative work with the U.S. Department of Defense including an overview of the current MTEC award entitled ‘Biologics license application of a bovine immunoglobulin supplement that prevents travelers’ diarrhea caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC).’ The Naval Medical Research Command (NMRC) also presented a poster at the symposium on the new oral therapeutic targeting Campylobacter and Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) developed in collaboration with Immuron. The NMRC poster is entitled ‘Research and Development of Hyperimmune Bovine Colostrum Products for the Prevention of Travelers’ Diarrhea.’ Copies of the presentations are available on the Company’s website. https://www.immuron.com.au/product-science/
U.S. Department of Defense funds Naval Medical Research Command and Walter Reed Army Institute of Research development of enhanced formulations of Travelan®
The U.S. Department of Defense has funded a new program for the Naval Medical Research Command and Walter Reed Army Institute of Research to develop enhanced formulations of Travelan® potentially expanding the coverage of the product as a therapeutic against endemic military relevant diarrheal pathogens. This work will utilize the extensive experience of the U.S. Department of Defense human infectious disease vaccine programs and will target key protective antigens of the major enteric bacterial pathogens Campylobacter, Shigella and Enterotoxigenic E. coli strains not present in the current product formulation. Immuron will negotiate a sub award for this new collaboration with NMRC and WRAIR to advance this research.

(i) Fair value of R&D tax incentive
The group's research and development (R&D) activities are eligible under an Australian government tax incentive for eligible expenditure. Management has assessed these activities and expenditure to determine which are likely to be eligible under the incentive scheme. Amounts are recognised when it has been established that the conditions of the tax incentive have been met and that the expected amount can be reliably measured. For the year ended 30 June 2024, the group has included an item in other income of $764,981 (2023: $392,877).

(i) Classification as trade receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. They are generally due for settlement within 30 days and therefore are all classified as current. Trade receivables are recognised initially at the amount of consideration that is unconditional unless they contain significant financing components, when they are recognised at fair value. The group holds the trade receivables with the objective to collect the contractual cash flows and therefore measures them subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
(ii) Accrued receivables
These amounts primarily comprise receivables from the Australian Taxation Office in relation to the R&D tax incentive.
(iii) Fair value of trade and other receivables
Due to the short-term nature of the current receivables, their carrying amount is considered to be the same as their fair value.
