Edesa Biotech Reports Fiscal 3rd Quarter 2026 Results

TORONTO, Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Edesa Biotech, Inc. (Nasdaq:EDSA), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing host-directed therapeutics for immuno-inflammatory diseases, today reported financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and provided an update on its business.

During the third quarter, Edesa completed preparations for its Phase 2 clinical study of EB06 (an anti-CXCL10 monoclonal antibody) in patients with moderate-to-severe nonsegmental vitiligo. Subsequent to quarter-end, the company began activating its first investigational sites and expects recruitment to begin in the coming weeks in Canada, with additional jurisdictions to follow, subject to regulatory approval and administrative filings. In its respiratory program, the company conducted additional exploratory analyses to evaluate paridiprubart’s effect in ARDS patients with concurrent acute kidney injury (AKI). In this population, paridiprubart plus standard of care treatment was associated with significant mortality reductions supported by concordant improvements in the kidney-specific MAKE30 composite endpoint. Edesa continues to evaluate potential regulatory pathways in major markets while advancing strategic discussions for the program.
