SAN DIEGO, CA, June 9, 2025 -- (Investorideas.com
Newswire) Aethlon Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq:
AEMD), a medical
therapeutic company focused on developing products to treat cancer and life-threatening
infectious diseases, today announced that an
abstract has been accepted for poster presentation at the Keystone Symposium on
Long COVID and Other Post-Acute Infection Syndromes being held at Eldorado
Hotel & Spa, Santa Fe, NM, United States, August 10-13,2025 (https://www.keystonesymposia.org/conferences/conference-listing/meeting/program-highlights/F12026).
Long COVID refers to persistent symptoms
following acute SARs-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19). These symptoms - including
fatigue, post-exertional malaise, shortness of breath, chest pain and cognitive
difficulties such as “brain fog” - may last for weeks or months after the
initial illness. Long COVID is estimated to affect between 44 and 48 million people
in the United States alone with a projected economic burden of $2 billion for
those with symptoms lasting a year. Despite over $1 billion allocated to Long
COVID research funding, no treatment has proven effective.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nanoparticles
50-500nm in diameter, released from all cell types and involved in cell-to-cell
communication, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Long COVID. EVs have been found to contain viral particles
and other cargo associated with abnormal blood clotting and inflammation.
Aethlon Medical’s Hemopurifier® is an investigational
extracorporeal device designed to bind and remove harmful EVs from the blood
through a combination of plasma separation, size exclusion and binding to a
proprietary affinity resin containing the plant lectin Galanthus nivalis
agglutinin (GNA), previously found to bind to the sugar mannose.

The Hemopurifier has previously been shown to
remove EVs in a patient with severe acute COVID-19 infection. Aethlon Medical
collaborated with the University of California San Francisco Medical Center Long
COVID clinic to evaluate plasma samples from participants with Long COVID and
control participants who had fully recovered from COVID-19 in order to examine whether individuals with Long COVID would have EVs
with the mannose target on their surface that would bind to the affinity resin
in the device. The data to be presented will review the binding of both larger
and smaller EVs to GNA lectin and the lectin-based affinity resin, respectively.

About Aethlon and the Hemopurifier®
Aethlon Medical is a medical therapeutic company focused on developing
the Hemopurifier, a clinical stage immunotherapeutic device which is designed
to combat cancer and life-threatening viral infections and for use in organ
transplantation. In human studies, the Hemopurifier has demonstrated the
removal of life-threatening viruses and in pre-clinical studies, the
Hemopurifier has demonstrated the removal of harmful EVs from biological fluids, utilizing its
proprietary lectin-based technology. This action has potential applications in cancer,
where EVs may promote immune suppression and metastasis, and in
life-threatening infectious diseases. The Hemopurifier is a U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) designated Breakthrough Device indicated for the treatment
of individuals with advanced or metastatic cancer who are either unresponsive
to or intolerant of standard of care therapy, and with cancer types in which EVs
have been shown to participate in the development or severity of the disease.
The Hemopurifier also holds an FDA Breakthrough Device designation, and an open
Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) application related to the treatment of
life-threatening viruses that are not addressed with approved therapies.
