A family of international standards for testing whether materials and medical devices are safe to touch or put into the human body, covering chemical, biological and toxicological tests. Investors should care because meeting these standards is often required for regulatory approval and market access; think of it as a safety passport that reduces the risk of product recalls, delays, or extra testing that can affect costs and sales timelines.
seasonal allergic rhinitis medical
"intended to help reduce exposure to airborne allergens associated with seasonal allergic rhinitis"
Seasonal allergic rhinitis, commonly called hay fever, is an immune reaction that causes sneezing, runny or blocked nose, itchy eyes and throat when a person inhales seasonal airborne allergens like pollen. For investors it matters because it drives predictable demand for allergy medicines, over‑the‑counter products and clinical trials, affects workforce productivity and healthcare spending, and can influence sales seasonality the same way an annual weather pattern shapes retail demand.

Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Polyrizon Announces Successful Results for NASARIX™ Biocompatibility Program, Supporting Advancement Towards First in Human Clinical Trial 

 

Raanana, Israel, July 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Polyrizon Ltd. (Nasdaq: PLRZ) (the “Company” or “Polyrizon”), a development-stage biotech company specializing in the development of innovative intranasal hydrogels, today announced successful results from its biocompatibility evaluation program for its proprietary NASARIXTM Allergy Blocker nasal spray, with all required biological safety tests meeting their predetermined acceptance criteria.

 

The comprehensive evaluation program was designed in accordance with internationally recognized standards for biological safety assessment of medical devices, including the ISO 10993 series, FDA guidance, and applicable European regulatory requirements. The program was developed to assess the safety and biocompatibility profile of NASARIXTM, a drug-free mucoadhesive nasal spray intended to help reduce exposure to airborne allergens associated with seasonal allergic rhinitis.

 

The completed testing program evaluated key biological safety endpoints identified for the device, including:

 

Cytotoxicity

 

Sensitization

 

Irritation / Intracutaneous Reactivity

 

Material-Mediated Pyrogenicity

 

Acute Systemic Toxicity

 

In addition, long-term systemic toxicity was assessed through a toxicological risk assessment conducted in accordance with ISO 10993-17, demonstrating substantial safety margins across the product’s constituent materials under intended conditions of use.

 

The biocompatibility evaluation was based on the final NASARIXTM product configuration and supported by extensive toxicological assessments of the formulation components, manufacturing processes, packaging materials, and intended patient exposure. According to the Biological Evaluation Plan, the product consists of well-characterized materials with established safety profiles and utilizes a manufacturing process designed to minimize biological risk.

 

“We are pleased to report the successful completion of the NASARIXTM biocompatibility program,” said Tomer Izraeli, CEO of Polyrizon. “Achieving positive results across all required biological safety assessments represents a significant milestone in our development program and further supports the biocompatibility safety profile of NASARIXTM as we continue advancing its clinical and regulatory pathway.”

 

The biocompatibility evaluation program was developed under a risk-management framework consistent with ISO 10993-1 and ISO 14971 and included assessment of physical and chemical characteristics, material safety data, toxicological literature, manufacturing controls, and endpoint-specific biological testing.

 

The successful completion of the biocompatibility program further strengthens the non-clinical package supporting NASARIXTM and represents an important step toward potential commercialization of the product as a novel nasal barrier technology designed to help individuals suffering from seasonal allergies.

 

About NASARIXTM

 

NASARIXTM is Polyrizon’s proprietary nasal spray designed to create a protective barrier within the nasal cavity, helping to prevent contact between inhaled allergens and the nasal mucosa. The product is being developed as a non-drug approach for the management of seasonal allergic rhinitis.

 

 

 

 

About Polyrizon

 

Polyrizon is a development stage biotech company specializing in the development of innovative medical device hydrogels delivered in the form of nasal sprays, which form a thin hydrogel-based shield containment barrier in the nasal cavity that can provide a barrier against viruses and allergens from contacting the nasal epithelial tissue. Polyrizon’s proprietary Capture and Contain TM, or C&C, hydrogel technology, comprised of a mixture of naturally occurring building blocks, is delivered in the form of nasal sprays, and potentially functions as a “biological mask” with a thin shield containment barrier in the nasal cavity. Polyrizon are further developing certain aspects of our C&C hydrogel technology such as the bioadhesion and prolonged retention at the nasal deposition site for intranasal delivery of drugs. Polyrizon refers to its additional technology, which is in an earlier stage of pre-clinical development, that is focused on nasal delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients, or APIs, as Trap and Target, or T&T.
