Ampligen (rintatolimod), is AIM’s RNA product candidate being developed for globally important cancers, viral diseases and disorders of the immune system. Ampligen is designed to modulate the immune system and has demonstrated anti-viral activity. The Company is currently sponsoring an expanded access program (EAP) for ME/CFS patients in the United States, and in 2021, AIM dosed its first “Long Hauler” patient with Ampligen in its post-COVID-19 “Long Hauler” portion of the active AMP-511 EAP in the U.S. Early data from the ongoing AMP-511 EAP and data from an earlier study, AMP-502, has indicated that patients with cognitive function deficiency have reported improvements in cognitive function after Ampligen treatment.

Strayer, M.D., Chief Scientific & Medical Officer of AIM ImmunoTech will join Solve President and CEO Oved Amitay to discuss the clinical development plans for Ampligen for the treatment of ME/CFS and Long COVID.
