NEW YORK, Sept. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SIGA Technologies, Inc. (SIGA) (NASDAQ: SIGA), a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the health security market, today announced that Dr. Jay K. Varma has joined SIGA as Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer (CMO). He will also continue to serve as a director of the SIGA Board of Directors.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs SIGA has worked to support the global response to the MPOX outbreak and as we continue to expand our role in planning for the prevention and treatment of smallpox diseases around the world, Jay Varma\u2019s experience as a director of our Board has been an invaluable asset to our company,\u201d said Phil Gomez, CEO of SIGA. \u201cIn his new additional role as EVP and Chief Medical Officer, he will be positioned to apply even more of his outstanding insight and experience to support our advocacy efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n

As EVP and CMO, Dr. Varma will lead medical affairs. He will provide support and planning for SIGA efforts to build broader awareness of the risk and public health impact of smallpox, MPOX and other orthopox virus outbreaks and promote strategies in procurement and treatment that can support the highest levels of public and individual safety. He will represent SIGA in engagement with leaders from patient advocacy, medical organizations, professional societies, global and regional health agencies and other public health and defense organizations around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my work at the CDC and supporting the COVID-19 pandemic response in Africa and New York City, I am encouraged that more countries and health agencies understand that public safety requires investing in preparedness and response to emerging infectious diseases. SIGA plays a central role in helping countries around the world understand and respond to potential outbreaks of smallpox, MPOX and other orthopox viruses,\u201d said Dr. Varma. \u201cI am excited to expand my role at the company at a pivotal time as we build momentum in our clinical research programs and continue to meet global demand for TPOXX.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Varma joined the SIGA Board of Directors in November 2022. He was previously a Professor of Population Health Sciences and Director of the Cornell Center for Pandemic Prevention and Response at Weill Cornell Medicine, a new center at the university focused on pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response. From 2001-2021, he worked for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Thailand, China, Ethiopia, and New York City. Recruited by the Mayor of New York at the peak of the COVID epidemic, Dr. Varma served from April 2020 to May 2021 as the principal scientific spokesperson and architect for New York City\u2019s COVID-19 pandemic response, including management of the largest diagnostic testing and contact tracing programs in the country. He earned his undergraduate degree with highest honors from Harvard College and completed medical school and his internal medicine and chief residencies at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine.<\/p>\n

\n ABOUT SIGA TECHNOLOGIES, INC. and TPOXX\u00ae<\/strong><\/p>\n

SIGA Technologies, Inc. is a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the health security market. Health security comprises countermeasures for biological, chemical, radiological and nuclear attacks (biodefense market), vaccines and therapies for emerging infectious diseases, and health preparedness. Our lead product is TPOXX\u00ae, also known as tecovirimat and ST-246\u00ae, an orally administered and IV formulation antiviral drug for the treatment of human smallpox disease caused by variola virus. TPOXX is a novel small-molecule drug and the US maintains a supply of TPOXX under Project BioShield. The oral formulation of TPOXX was approved by the FDA for the treatment of smallpox in 2018, and the IV formulation was approved for the same indication in 2022. The full label is available by clicking here<\/a>. Oral tecovirimat received approval from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the United Kingdom in 2022. The EMA and UK approvals include labeling for oral tecovirimat indicating its use for the treatment of smallpox, monkeypox, cowpox, and vaccinia complications following vaccination against smallpox. The full label is available by clicking here<\/a>. In September 2018, SIGA signed a contract with the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA), part of the office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, for additional procurement and development related to both oral and intravenous formulations of TPOXX.

\n About Smallpox<\/strong><\/p>\n

Smallpox is a contagious, disfiguring and often deadly disease that has affected humans for thousands of years. Naturally-occurring smallpox was eradicated worldwide by 1980, the result of an unprecedented global immunization campaign. Samples of smallpox virus have been kept for research purposes. This has led to concerns that smallpox could someday be used as a biological warfare agent. A vaccine can prevent smallpox, but the risk of the current vaccine’s side effects is too high to justify routine vaccination for people at low risk of exposure to the smallpox virus.<\/p>\n
