Polyrizon Ltd. ( (PLRZ) ) has shared an announcement.

On January 5, 2026, Polyrizon Ltd. reported positive in-vitro pre-clinical results showing that its PL-14 intranasal Allergy Blocker significantly outperformed hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), a standard nasal barrier comparator, in blocking Der p 1, a key house dust mite allergen associated with allergic rhinitis and asthma. Using a validated Transwell permeability model that mimics allergen transfer into nasal mucosa, PL-14 demonstrated markedly lower allergen penetration than HPMC at all measured time points (1, 2, 4, 6 and 24 hours), with p-values of 0.0042 or better; allergen levels with PL-14 remained very low, rising only to about 141.2 ng at their peak versus more than 5,200 ng with HPMC at 24 hours. Management said the data provide important confirmation of PL-14’s barrier performance and support continued progression of the program toward clinical studies, a step that could strengthen Polyrizon’s positioning in the preventive allergy treatment space and signal potential value for patients, clinicians and investors if similar efficacy is demonstrated in humans.
