Sancilio Pharmaceuticals Company, Inc. (SPCI) will present an update on the research program in the field of sickle cell disease, at the National Sickle Cell Disease Association of America (SCDAA) convention, being held in Atlanta from October 25-28, 2017.

SPCI is developing Altemia™ as a treatment for pediatric patients with sickle cell disease.

The Company previously announced enrollment completion of the clinical trial, highlighting high retention rates and the possibility for patients to enroll into an open label extension that will collect long term safety data while continuing to monitor the effectiveness of the drug.

“We are excited that database lock, another key milestone for the study, is being achieved. We will discuss progress made in our sickle cell research initiatives with the scientific community at SCDAA. We expect to present all data available at future scientific events. Altemia™ has the potential to be an important new treatment option for people with sickle cell disease who experience devastating vaso-occlussive events, which can be extremely disruptive in their lives”, said Dr. Frederick D. Sancilio, President and Chief Executive Officer of SPCI.

About Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a group of genetic disorders that results in dysfunctional hemoglobin (HbS) and a depletion of certain lipids in the walls of blood cells. These abnormalities create an inflammatory state and an increase in the red and white blood cell’s tendency to adhere to each other, resulting in episodic occlusions of blood vessels, reperfusion damage and excruciating pain. Ultimately, many children develop organ damage and strokes. There are approximately 100,000 cases of SCD in the United States. Treatment options are limited. The cost of care for this group may exceed $5BB.

About Sancilio Pharmaceuticals Company, Inc.
Sancilio Pharmaceuticals Company, Inc. (SPCI) is a fully integrated, specialty pharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing pharmaceutical products, including those based on our proprietary Advanced Lipid Technologies® (ALT®) platform. SPCI is pursuing treatments for sickle cell disease, short bowel syndrome and severe hypertriglyceridemia. We utilize our cGMP compliant facility to develop and manufacture our products. Our ALT® platform is designed to enhance the bioavailability, reduce the food effect and improve the efficacy of lipids and lipophilic active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Lipids are hydrophobic or amphipathic molecules, including fatty acids, steroids (including hormones) and fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E and K). Our business model is to apply our ALT® platform to lipids or lipophilic APIs to create unique product candidates that address the disorders and diseases resulting from imbalances of lipids in the body. In addition to our primary focus of developing our proprietary products using the ALT® platform, we make use of, and license rights to, our proprietary ALT® platform and other technologies to third parties, providing both development and subsequent soft gelatin encapsulation services.
