American Marconi Wireless News - Revelation Biosciences Announces Initiation of GMP Manufacturing of GEMINI and Placebo to Support Later Stage Clinical Development

"We are delighted to be working with a leading global contract manufacturing organization," said James Rolke, Chief Executive Officer of Revelation. "The manufacture of additional drug supply and placebo will fulfill a critical step in advancing Revelation's pipeline and accelerating timelines for upcoming clinical programs."

The manufacture of drug and Placebo enables the company to conduct randomized double blinded, placebo-controlled clinical studies, and is an integral part of the broader strategy to move Gemini toward approval.

Revelation met with FDA in December 2025 and is currently awaiting the official meeting minutes. The primary purpose of this meeting was to establish agency feedback and input into the clinical development and regulatory approval pathway for Gemini as a treatment for acute kidney injury (AKI).

About Gemini

Gemini is the Company's proprietary formulation of phosphorylated hexaacyl disaccharide (PHAD^®), a toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist. TLR4 stimulation with Gemini rebalances the innate immune response and has been demonstrated to have the potential to treat acute and chronic diseases associated with dysregulated inflammation. Gemini is currently being evaluated as a potential treatment for acute kidney injury (GEMINI-AKI program). Gemini is also being developed as a treatment for chronic kidney disease (GEMINI-CKD program), as a treatment to reduce hyperinflammation and infection associated with severe burn (GEM-PBI) and as a treatment to prevent post-surgical infection (GEMINI-PSI program). The potential of Gemini has been demonstrated in multiple preclinical models of AKI, CKD and infection, as well as in two phase 1 clinical studies. See additional detail here.

About AKI

Acute Kidney Injury or AKI, also known as acute renal failure, is defined as a rapid loss of kidney function. AKI causes a build-up of waste products in blood and makes it more difficult for kidneys to maintain the correct balance of fluid in the body. AKI can also significantly impact other organs such as the brain, heart, and lungs. Severe AKI requiring dialysis significantly increases the likelihood of worse outcomes including longer time in an ICU, potential to develop chronic kidney disease and death.

AKI is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, affecting more than 10% of all hospitalized patients and more than 50% of patients admitted to intensive care units. Renal replacement therapy (dialysis) is still the only therapeutic option in the treatment of the consequences of severe AKI and is required in approximately 20% of all critically ill patients. Despite the fact that these patients show high mortality rates, up to 40% of patients who survive such an episode develop chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease. As such, new therapies to treat AKI are currently needed.
