Crystagen

Bioregulator

Also known as: EDP, Glu-Asp-Pro

Tier 3, Preclinical only

Evidence is limited to animal or in-vitro work. No human pharmacokinetics. Any human dose in circulation is extrapolated, and extrapolation across species routinely fails.

Half-life
Not established

No pharmacokinetic data found on allowed hosts.

Dosing
No established dose

A Thymalin review (PMC8365293) cites an oral Crystagen study in elderly people with impaired immunity, but dose/frequency/duration are not given in the accessible text, and the claim traces to a Russian patent, not a peer-reviewed trial, no verifiable dose could be extracted.

Regulatory status
Not approved by FDA/EMA. Sold in Russia as a registered peptide bioregulator/parapharmaceutical, not equivalent to drug approval.
Evidence base
mixed · confidence: low

Single Russian lineage. Allowed-host evidence: an aged/gamma-irradiated-rat organotypic spleen-culture study (PMID 28976144) reporting increased explant growth and reduced apoptosis; and a human immunogram-normalization claim relayed in a review (PMC8365293) that itself traces to a patent filing, not a transparent clinical trial. No independent replication; sample sizes/blinding not stated. Sequence Glu-Asp-Pro and MW 359.33 Da confirmed on PubChem (CID 23624313).

Safety

No independently verifiable human safety/toxicology data found on allowed hosts, the one human efficacy claim traces to a patent rather than a peer-reviewed trial with safety monitoring. Absence of reported harm is not evidence of safety.
