About Surrozen
Surrozen is a biotechnology company discovering and developing drug candidates to selectively modulate the Wnt pathway. Surrozen is developing tissue-specific antibodies designed to engage the body’s existing biological repair mechanisms with potential application across multiple disease areas, including inflammatory bowel disease, hepatitis, eye diseases, hearing loss, lung and airway diseases, and certain neurological disorders.

About SZN-1326
SZN-1326 is the first development candidate designed using Surrozen’s SWAPTMtechnology and targets the Wnt signaling pathway in the intestinal epithelium. In preclinical animal models of acute and chronic colitis, SZN-1326 has been shown to activate Wnt signaling in the intestine, stimulate intestinal epithelial regeneration, reduce inflammation and reduce disease activity. Surrozen is developing SZN-1326 for moderate to severe inflammatory bowel disease.

“Today Surrozen scientists reported results from studies showing that SZN-1326, a multivalent bispecific antibody that binds to Fzd5 and LRP6, produced the most potent effect directly impacting epithelial cells, driving transient expansion of both stem and progenitor cells, and promoting epithelial cell differentiation. Furthermore, we observed restoration of the damaged epithelial structure and reduction in inflammation,” said Wen-Chen Yeh, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer at Surrozen.
“The results presented in this article led to the development and evaluation of our lead molecule, SZN-1326. SZN-1326 is initially being developed for ulcerative colitis and we look forward to initiating Phase 1 clinical trials in the third quarter of 2022,” said Trudy Vanhove, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Surrozen.
“The results in this paper further demonstrate Surrozen’s ability to effectively generate selective Wnt mimetic antibodies that stimulate tissue repair and renewal, and in this case, in an acute disease model of inflammatory bowel disease,” said Yang Li, Ph.D., Senior Vice President of biology at Surrozen.
