(NASDAQ:ADMA), a late-stage biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures, and intends to commercialize specialty plasma-based biologics for the treatment and prevention of certain infectious diseases, announced that it will present at the 2016 JMP Securities Life Sciences Conference on June 21, 2016 at The St. Regis New York.

Adam Grossman, President and Chief Executive Officer will provide a corporate overview, which is scheduled for Tuesday, June 21st at 12:00PM ET.

About ADMA Biologics, Inc.  (ADMA)
ADMA is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures and intends to commercialize specialty plasma-based biologics for the treatment and prevention of Primary Immune Deficiency Disease (PIDD) and certain infectious diseases. ADMA’s mission is to develop and commercialize plasma-derived, human immune globulins targeted to niche patient populations for the treatment and prevention of certain infectious diseases. The target patient populations include immune-compromised individuals who suffer from an underlying immune deficiency disease, or who may be immune-compromised for medical reasons. ADMA’s lead product candidate, RI-002, has completed a Phase III clinical trial in patients with PIDD and has met the primary endpoint, and a Biologics License Application (BLA) for RI-002 was accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on September 18, 2015.  The company has received U.S. Patent 9,107,906 relating to certain aspects of its product candidate.  For more information, please visit www.admabiologics.com.

About RI-002 
ADMA’s lead product candidate, RI-002, is a specialty plasma-derived, polyclonal, intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) derived from human plasma containing naturally occurring polyclonal antibodies (e.g., Streptococcus pneumoniae, H. influenza type B, cytomegalovirus (CMV), measles, tetanus, etc.) as well as standardized levels of antibodies to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). ADMA is pursuing an indication for the use of this specialty IVIG product for treatment of patients diagnosed with PIDD. Polyclonal antibodies are the primary active component of IVIG products. Polyclonal antibodies are proteins that are used by the body’s immune system to neutralize microbes, such as bacteria and viruses. Data review indicates that the polyclonal antibodies present in RI-002 support its ability to prevent infections in immune-compromised patients. ADMA’s analysis demonstrated that the Phase III trial met the primary endpoint with no serious bacterial infections (SBI) reported. These results more than meet the requirement specified by the FDA guidance of ≤ 1 SBI per patient-year. 

About Primary Immune Deficiency Disease (PIDD)
PIDD is a class of inherited genetic disorders that causes an individual to have a deficient or absent immune system due to either a lack of necessary antibodies or a failure of these antibodies to function properly. PIDD patients are more vulnerable to infections and more likely to suffer complications from these infections. According to the World Health Organization, there are over 150 different presentations of PIDD. As patients suffering from PIDD lack a properly functioning immune system, they typically receive monthly, outpatient infusions of IVIG therapy. Without this exogenous antibody immune support, these patients would be susceptible to a wide variety of infectious diseases. PIDD has an estimated prevalence of 1:1,200 in the United States, or approximately 250,000 people.
