Teaneck, NJ, October 13, 2025 - GC Biopharma USA, Inc., a leader in plasma-derived products, participated as the exclusive Science to Solutions Partner at the 2025 Consortium of Independent Immunology Clinics (CIIC) Fall Conference, held September 26-28 in Tampa, Florida. The CIIC Fall Conference supports data-driven dialogue and collaboration among independent immunology practices, creating a forum to connect scientific advancement with real-world decision-making in IVIG and patient care.

As part of the program, Suzanne Strasters, MSN, FNP-C, IgCN, Head of Clinical Education, Medical Affairs, GC Biopharma USA, presented on the company’s product pipeline and its Investigator-Initiated Research (IIR) Program, highlighting GC Biopharma’s commitment to supporting independent research that expands medical and scientific knowledge in immunoglobulin therapies.

“Being the Science to Solutions partner at CIIC reflects GC Biopharma’s dedication to education, collaboration, and supporting clinicians in delivering high-quality patient care,” said Strasters. “Through initiatives like our IIR program, we aim to empower healthcare professionals and investigators to drive the next wave of insights in the treatment of primary immunodeficiencies.”

The CIIC Fall Conference is designed to foster meaningful scientific conversations in small-group settings, with limited sponsor presence, making it a unique venue for collaborative engagement between industry and practice leaders.

With more than 50 years of expertise in plasma protein manufacturing, GC Biopharma is committed to elevating standards in IVIG therapies. GC Biopharma manufactures ALYGLO^® with an additional step, G-XI™ Technology, a cation exchange (CEX) chromatography process, that has been shown to reduce coagulation factor XIa (FXIa) to undetectable limits.^1,2 It has been a longstanding goal within the immunoglobulin community to remove FXIa in manufacturing.

ALYGLO^® is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of primary humoral immunodeficiency (PI) in adults aged 17 and older. ALYGLO^® is supported by GC Biopharma’s 50-year legacy in plasma product manufacturing with immune globulin therapies distributed in more than 50 countries worldwide.

About ALYGLO^®
ALYGLO^® (immune globulin intravenous, human-stwk) is a glycine-stabilized 10% immunoglobulin G (100 mg/mL) for intravenous infusion, manufactured from pooled human plasma from US donors. The manufacturing process includes multiple steps to reduce the risk of virus transmission. These include solvent/detergent treatment and 20 nm nanofiltration. The ALYGLO manufacturing process also uses G-XI^™ Technology, its novel cation exchange (CEX) chromatography, that removes FXIa to undetectable levels (References ^1,2).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

• Contraindications: ALYGLO is contraindicated in patients who have a history of anaphylactic or severe systemic reaction to the administration of human immune globulin and in IgA-deficient patients with antibodies to IgA and a history of hypersensitivity.


• Hypersensitivity: In case of hypersensitivity, discontinue infusion immediately and institute appropriate treatment. Epinephrine should be available for immediate treatment of severe acute hypersensitivity reactions.


• Hyperproteinemia, Increased Serum Viscosity, and Hyponatremia: Hyperproteinemia, increased serum viscosity, and hyponatremia may occur.


• Aseptic Meningitis Syndrome (AMS): Aseptic meningitis syndrome (AMS) may occur, especially with high doses or rapid infusion. AMS usually begins within several hours to 2 days following ALYGLO treatment. Discontinuation of treatment has resulted in remission of AMS within several days without sequelae.


• Hemolysis: Delayed hemolytic anemia due to enhanced red blood cell (RBC) sequestration and acute hemolysis consistent with intravascular hemolysis have been reported. Cases of severe hemolysis-related renal dysfunction/failure or disseminated intravascular coagulation have occurred following infusion of IGIV. Closely monitor patients for clinical signs and symptoms of hemolysis, particularly patients with risk factors.


• Transfusion-Related Acute Lung Injury: Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema (transfusion-related acute lung injury [TRALI]) may occur. TRALI is characterized by severe respiratory distress, pulmonary edema, hypoxemia, normal left ventricular function, and fever. Patients with TRALI may be managed using oxygen therapy with adequate ventilator support. Monitor patients for pulmonary adverse reactions.


• Transmissible Infectious Agents: After infusion of immunoglobulin, the transitory rise of the various passively transferred antibodies in the patient’s blood may yield positive serological testing results, with the potential for a misleading interpretation.


• Interference with Laboratory Tests: After infusion of immunoglobulin, the transitory rise of the various passively transferred antibodies in the patient’s blood may yield positive serological testing results, with the potential for a misleading interpretation.


• Adverse reactions (observed in ≥ 5% of study subjects) were headache, nausea/vomiting, fatigue, nasal/sinus congestion, rash, arthralgia, diarrhea, muscle pain/aches, infusion site pain/swelling, abdominal pain/discomfort, cough, and dizziness.


• It is recommended that ALYGLO be administered separately from other drugs or medications.
