Item 8.01. Other Events.
On February 20, 2025, Immunic, Inc. (the “Company” or “Immunic”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) and posted an updated corporate presentation on the Company’s website (the “Presentation”) reporting on a post-hoc analysis of patients from its phase 1b clinical trial of IMU-856 in celiac disease, demonstrating a dose-dependent increase of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels. The Company also reported preclinical in vivo data showing a dose-dependent reduction of body weight gain and food consumption for IMU-856. IMU-856 is an orally available and systemically acting small molecule modulator that targets SIRT6 (Sirtuin 6), a protein which serves as a transcriptional regulator of intestinal barrier function and regeneration of bowel epithelium. The Company will discuss the data and the Presentation during a live webinar event at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time on February 20, 2025, and during a digital oral presentation at the 19th Congress of European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation at 11:57 a.m. Eastern Time on February 20, 2025.
