(&#8220;Citius&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;) (Nasdaq: CTXR), a specialty pharmaceutical company developing and commercializing critical care drug products, today announced\u00a0interim data from a proof-of-concept (&#8220;POC&#8221;) large animal study of its proprietary <i>induced<\/i> mesenchymal stem cell (&#8220;<i>i<\/i>-MSC&#8221;) therapy for acute inflammatory respiratory conditions including COVID-19 related Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (&#8220;ARDS&#8221;). The available results of <i>i-<\/i>MSC therapy in the study show improvement in critical parameters, such as improved oxygenation, less systemic shock, and reduced lung injury, compared to the control group. The study was conducted in a widely accepted large animal model.<\/p>\n<p>As previously announced, Citius signed an exclusive worldwide licensing agreement with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3002919-1&amp;h=1079632621&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fnovellustx.com%2F&amp;a=Novellus+Therapeutics+Limited\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Novellus Therapeutics Limited<\/a>\u00a0to develop and commercialize iPSC-derived <i>i<\/i>-MSCs. In conjunction with the licensing agreement, the Company established a new subsidiary, NoveCite, Inc., to develop, manufacture and commercialize these induced mesenchymal stem cells. NoveCite has already filed a Pre-Investigational New Drug Application (Pre-IND) with the FDA and has received guidance on the requirements for the proposed trials. <\/p>\n<p>Citius believes that the NoveCite <i>i<\/i>-MSCs overcome some of the challenges of human donor-derived MSCs which are often associated with limited supply, batch inconsistencies, lower potency, and expensive manufacturing. <i>i<\/i>-MSCs are derived from engineered iPSCs (induced pluripotent stem cells), a process that facilitates the robust expansion\u00a0of uniform MSCs that have higher potency, secrete higher levels of immunomodulatory proteins, and offer practically unlimited supply. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We believe Novellus&#8217;s patented, non-immunogenic mRNA cell reprogramming is clearly a superior methodology to generating MSCs compared to the donor-derived model,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Myron Holubiak<\/span>, Chief Executive Officer of Citius. &#8220;The Novellus process provides a consistent cell bank source, near unlimited supply, greater expansion potential with comparatively less senescent cells. These early results from our proof of concept study are encouraging and indicate potent action which could lead to a treatment candidate for COVID-19 related ARDS.&#8221; Mr. Holubiak continued, &#8220;The development opportunities are significant, and we believe our breakthrough <i>i<\/i>-MSC therapy has the potential to be a strong catalyst for the advancement of our business strategy.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About Citius Pharmaceuticals, Inc.<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Citius is a late-stage specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to the development and commercialization of critical care products, with a focus on anti-infectives and cancer care.

The NC-<i>i<\/i>-MSCs produced from this clonal technique are differentiated from human donor-derived MSCs (bone marrow, placenta, umbilical cord, adipose tissue, or dental pulp) by providing genetic homogeneity. In\u00a0<i>in vitro<\/i>\u00a0studies, <i>i<\/i>-MSCs exhibit superior potency and high cell viability. <i>i<\/i>-MSCs secrete immunomodulatory proteins that may reduce or prevent pulmonary symptoms associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in patients with COVID-19. The NoveCite <i>i<\/i>-MSC is an allogeneic (unrelated donor) mesenchymal stem-cell product manufactured by expanding material from a master cell bank.<\/p>\n<p>First generation (human donor-derived) MSCs are isolated from donated tissue followed by culture expansion. Since only a relatively small number of cells are isolated from each donation, first generation MSCs are increased by growing the cells in culture. Unfortunately, these type of MSCs start to lose potency, and ultimately become senescent. Each donation produces a limited number of MSCs, so a continuous supply of new donors is needed to produce commercial scale. The number and quality of MSCs that can be isolated from different donors can vary substantially.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>About Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>ARDS is an inflammatory process leading to build-up of fluid in the lungs and respiratory failure. It can occur due to infection, trauma and inhalation of noxious substances. ARDS accounts for approximately 10% of all ICU admissions and almost 25% of patients requiring mechanical ventilation. Survivors of ARDS are often left with severe long-term illness and disability.\u00a0 ARDS is a frequent complication of patients with COVID-19. ARDS is sometimes initially diagnosed as pneumonia or pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs from heart disease). Symptoms of ARDS include shortness of breath, rapid breathing and heart rate, chest pain (particularly while inhaling), and bluish skin coloration. Among those who survive ARDS, a decreased quality of life is relatively common.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Safe Harbor<\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>This press release may contain &#8220;forward-looking statements&#8221; within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
