MIAMI, Dec. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SAB Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SABS), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing human anti-thymocyte immunoglobulin (hATG) for type 1 diabetes (T1D) and other autoimmune diseases, today announced that the Company will give several oral presentations at the 2nd Asian Conference on Innovative Therapies for Diabetes Management (ATTD-Asia) being held December 9-11, 2025, in Singapore.
Data to be presented will highlight the progress of SAB BIO’s lead program, SAB-142, a potentially best-in-class, disease-modifying, redosable immunotherapy in clinical development for delaying the progression of T1D in new-onset, Stage 3 patients, including:
- Phase 1 study data showcasing the clinically validated, multi-specific mechanism of action of SAB-142.
- Phase 1 study data demonstrating immunomodulation without sustained lymphodepletion following dosing of SAB-142.
- Phase 1 study data demonstrating a favorable safety profile for SAB-142, characterized as not causing serum sickness or anti-drug antibodies at the target dose.
“We are excited to share data at another major international conference to highlight the robust multi-specific mechanism of action of our lead program, SAB-142. Our presentations at ATTD-Asia continue to support the development of SAB-142 as a potential best-in-class immunotherapy, currently in Phase 2b clinical development for delaying the progression of T1D in new-onset, Stage 3 patients,” said Alexandra Kropotova, M.D., MBA, Chief Medical Officer, SAB BIO. “We look forward to sharing additional Phase 1 data and dosing the first patient in the Phase 2b SAFEGUARD clinical trial later this year.”

About SAB-142
SAB-142 is a potentially disease-modifying, redosable immunotherapy in clinical development for the treatment of autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D). SAB-142 is a multi-specific, fully human anti-thymocyte globulin (hATG) with a mechanism of action analogous to that of rabbit ATG (rATG). rATG has demonstrated in multiple clinical trials the ability to slow disease progression in patients with new- or recent-onset of Stage 3 T1D. SAB-142, like rATG, directly targets multiple immune cells involved in destroying pancreatic beta cells, including modulation of “bad acting” T-lymphocytes like cytotoxic T-cells. By stopping immune cells from attacking beta cells, this treatment has the potential to preserve insulin-producing beta cells.
About SAB BIO
SAB BIO is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing multi-specific, high-potency, human immunoglobulin G (hIgG) to treat and prevent immune and autoimmune disorders. The Company’s lead candidate, SAB-142, targets autoimmune T1D with a disease-modifying therapeutic approach that aims to change the T1D treatment paradigm by delaying onset and potentially preventing disease progression of Stage 3 T1D patients. Using advanced genetic engineering and antibody science, SAB BIO developed a proprietary technology which holds the potential to generate additional novel therapeutic candidates utilizing the human immune response, without the need for human donors or convalescent plasma. SAB BIO has optimized genetic engineering in the development of transchromosomic cattle, or Tc-Bovine™, to produce hIgG. SAB BIO’s drug development production system is able to generate a diverse repertoire of specifically targeted, high-potency, hIgGs that can address a wide range of serious unmet needs in human diseases.
