AIM ImmunoTech Announces Charles Lapp, MD, as a Consulting Medical Officer for its ME/CFS and Long COVID Programs

OCALA, Fla., April 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NYSE American: AIM) (“AIM”) today announced that Charles Lapp, MD, is joining the company to help lead its efforts to develop Ampligen (rintatolimod) as a potential treatment for Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and Long COVID.

Dr. Lapp has played a key role in AIM’s long-standing AMP-511 Expanded Access Program for the treatment of ME/CFS and Long COVID, having founded one of the clinical trial’s key sites, the Hunter-Hopkins Center in Charlotte, N.C., from which he recently retired. As a Consulting Medical Officer and an independent contractor, he will help manage the company’s research programs related to ME/CFS and Long COVID, including the development of protocols and new clinical trials.

Dr. Lapp states: “I’m eager and excited for the opportunity to continue working with Ampligen. Ampligen is the only treatment for people with ME/CFS that has shown efficacy in clinical trials and I believe this will be confirmed in further trials requested by the FDA in ME/CFS and also potential further trials in Long COVID. I am devoted to doing whatever I can to get Ampligen FDA-approved and available for commercial use.”

Dr. Lapp is a graduate of Albany Medical College. He has been the medical advisor to the Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Association of America, the American Fibromyalgia Syndrome Association, and the National Fibromyalgia Association; and a board member of the International Association for CFS and FM.
