    Ra'anana, Israel, Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Polyrizon Ltd. (NASDAQ:PLRZ) ("Polyrizon" or the "Company"), a biotechnology company developing intranasal products based on its proprietary Capture & Contain (C&C) platform, today announced encouraging results from a recent pre-clinical study evaluating the allergen-blocking performance of its PL-14 Allergy Blocker formulation. The study was designed to simulate allergen exposure conditions and assess the ability of PL-14 to prevent allergen penetration through a hydrogel barrier. In the pre-clinical study, Der p 1 allergen, a major house dust mite allergen, was applied atop the PL-14 formulation. Samples were collected beneath the formulation at multiple time points to measure the quantity and pace of allergen penetration.

    The results demonstrated that PL-14 effectively limited allergen diffusion over time, forming an effective nasal barrier against the house dust mite allergen (Der p 1). Key results include:

    • After one hour: Only 1.07% of the allergen passed through.
    • After two hours: Penetration remained minimal at 1.14%.
    • After four hours: Still highly effective, with just 13.6% diffusion.

    These findings emphasize the potentially strong barrier properties of PL-14, particularly during the critical early hours of exposure when allergen contact is most likely to trigger immune responses.

    Importantly, the allergen load used in this study was estimated to be tens of times higher than typical real-world exposure levels during allergy seasons, based on published clinical studies conducted in controlled allergen challenge chambers. This suggests that PL-14 may offer robust protection even under extreme allergen conditions.

    According to a Future Market Insights report, the Allergy Immunotherapy market is poised for substantial growth, with market valuation projected to increase from USD 1.9 billion in 2025 to USD 4.2 billion by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period. This growth is primarily driven by the increasing prevalence of allergies worldwide, along with advancements in treatment methodologies and rising awareness of immunotherapy as an effective long-term solution.

    "Our innovative C&C platform is designed to form a protective hydrogel layer that captures and contains airborne allergens before they reach the nasal mucosa," said Tomer Izraeli, CEO of Polyrizon. "We believe that these results reinforce the potential of PL-14 as a frontline preventive solution for allergic rhinitis and other nasal allergies."

    Polyrizon continues to advance its preclinical development program and plans to initiate clinical studies to support regulatory and clinical pathways for PL-14 and other candidates within the C&C platform.

    About Polyrizon

    Polyrizon is a development stage biotech company specializing in the development of innovative medical device hydrogels delivered in the form of nasal sprays, which form a thin hydrogel-based shield containment barrier in the nasal cavity that can provide a barrier against viruses and allergens from contacting the nasal epithelial tissue. Polyrizon's proprietary Capture and Contain TM, or C&C, hydrogel technology, comprised of a mixture of naturally occurring building blocks, is delivered in the form of nasal sprays, and potentially functions as a "biological mask" with a thin shield containment barrier in the nasal cavity. Polyrizon are further developing certain aspects of our C&C hydrogel technology such as the bioadhesion and prolonged retention at the nasal deposition site for intranasal delivery of drugs. Polyrizon refers to its additional technology, which is in an earlier stage of pre-clinical development, that is focused on nasal delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients, or APIs, as Trap and Target ™, or T&T.
