Tevogen Commends HHS for Addressing Long COVID, Emphasizes TVGN 489’s Potential Impact for 20 Million Americans

WARREN, N.J., Sept. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tevogen (“Tevogen Bio Holdings Inc.” or “Company”) (Nasdaq: TVGN), today expressed its gratitude to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and the Trump Administration for convening two Long COVID roundtables focused on patient experiences and research.

Long COVID continues to affect millions of Americans; according to Yale Medicine, approximately 20 million adults in the U.S. are living with Long COVID, a condition that not only impacts individual health but also carries major economic consequences by keeping people out of the workforce and contributing to significant productivity losses across the nation.

Tevogen believes its investigational drug, TVGN 489, which has demonstrated promising results in a Proof-of-Concept clinical trial, could potentially play an important role in addressing this ongoing public health crisis.

Ryan Saadi, M.D., M.P.H., Chief Executive Officer of Tevogen stated, “I have always prioritized SARS-CoV-2 and its lasting consequences. Long COVID has disrupted the lives of millions of patients and families, and I am highly optimistic that our investigational therapy, TVGN 489, could make a meaningful difference in restoring health and hope for these individuals.”

Curtis L. Patton, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus of Epidemiology, Yale School of Public Health, and member of Tevogen Board of Directors, added, “The Long COVID crisis is not only a medical challenge but also a societal one, with far-reaching impacts on economic productivity and quality of life. I commend the leadership of HHS in addressing this pressing issue, and I believe innovative therapies like TVGN 489 may hold the key to meaningful progress for patients who have been suffering far too long.”

Tevogen remains committed to developing accessible and affordable personalized therapeutics through its proprietary ExacTcell™ platform, which enables the rapid and scalable development of genetically unmodified precision T cell therapies.
