About Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy (IIM)

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a group of conditions characterized by inflammation of muscles (myositis) and other body systems. Polymyositis and dermatomyositis are subtypes of IIM. Polymyositis causes inflammation and weakness of the skeletal muscles responsible for movement. Dermatomyositis is a form of polymyositis that is associated with skin rash, in addition to muscle inflammation. Both disorders can significantly compromise the quality of life and are very challenging to treat. Currently, the only treatment for these disorders is immunosuppressive drugs, which can be associated with significant toxicity and other side effects.

About RESTEM

RESTEM is a leading clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing off-the-shelf, next-generation cell therapies designed to modulate the immune system. Leveraging our proprietary products, robust clinical development expertise, and cutting-edge-manufacturing capabilities, we are advancing two potentially groundbreaking programs, Restem-L, our umbilical-lining modified progenitor cells (UMPC) program for autoimmune diseases; and our activated natural killer cell (aNK) therapeutics targeting senescence and age-associated disorders. Our therapies are uniquely positioned to redefine the standard of care for patients with limited options, by suggesting an immune system remodeling-rather than mere symptom suppression-offering a potential path to true disease resolution. RESTEM is headquartered in Miami, Florida. For more information, please visit and follow us on X and LinkedIn .
