electroCore, Inc. Announces Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Study of Non-Invasive Vagus Nerve Stimulation (nVNS) for Symptomatic Exacerbation of Nausea in Patients with Gastroparesis and Related Disorders

ROCKAWAY, NJ, 
April 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —  — 
electroCore, Inc. (Nasdaq: ECOR), a commercial-stage bioelectronic medicine company, today announced that 
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine is starting an investigator-initiated trial of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) using the Company’s proprietary gammaCore device to treat symptomatic exacerbation of nausea in patients with gastroparesis and related disorders (NCT04857281).

Many gastrointestinal disorders can cause nausea and vomiting, of which the most well-known is gastroparesis, a digestive disorder in which the stomach empties slowly.¹ The symptoms of gastroparesis can range from mild to severe, requiring prolonged hospitalizations and interventions, and causing life-threatening complications which can significantly affect the quality of life in affected individuals. It is estimated that close to 6 million Americans suffer from gastroparesis which is more common in women than men.² The economic impact of gastroparesis can be substantial, with studies reporting 11% of patients disabled due to their gastroparesis symptoms, while another 28.5% reported a loss of yearly income. ³

Nausea without slow gastric emptying may be even more common and has been referred to by many names, including chronic unexplained nausea and vomiting (CUNV), gastroparesis-like syndrome (GLS), functional vomiting, and vomiting of unexplained etiology (VUE). Many of these patients can be classified as having functional dyspepsia (FD) which is a disorder that may affect 10% of the US population.⁴

“The vagus nerve plays a key role in the regulation of nausea and vomiting,” commented Dr. Jay Pasricha, Professor of Medicine and Neurosciences and Director of the 
Johns Hopkins Center for Neurogastroenterology and principal investigator of the study. “Vagal modulation is currently thought to be a major component of the treatment benefit from an implanted gastric electrical stimulation (GES) device in patients with symptoms of gastroparesis and the planned proof of concept study explores whether a non-invasive hand-held device for vagal modulation can also be effective in reducing the need for traditional rescue medications for patients with unexplained nausea and vomiting.”

“We appreciate  Dr. Pasricha and his team selecting gammaCore (nVNS) for their study,” said  Eric Liebler, Senior Vice President of Neurology at electroCore, Inc. “gammaCore (nVNS) is the first non-invasive, handheld medical device proven to activate the vagus nerve by providing a patented mild electrical stimulation through the skin, and offers a potential alternative to GES that could eliminate significant risks of injury or illness associated with implantation.”

Avivagen Inc. (VIVXF)(VIV:CA)
Receives Largest Single Purchase Order

Avivagen Inc is a Canadian based company operating in the healthcare sector. It develops science-based, natural health products for animals. It develops and commercializes products for livestock feeds to replace antibiotics for growth promotion and to help prevent disease by supporting the animal’s own health defenses. Its product range includes OxC-beta, Vivamune health chews, Oximunol chewable tablets, and Carotenoid Oxidation products.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Order. On Friday, Avivagen announced it had received a purchase order for a single shipment of 4.4 metric tonnes of OxC-beta Livestock. This represents the largest single shipment purchase order of OxC-beta to date and represents a 10% increase in size over the previous record single shipment order. This one order represents more than 40% of the previous year’s total volume. The order continues the momentum seen by Avivagen in the acceptance of OxC-beta as an alternative to antibiotics in animal feed, in our view.


UNAHCO.  Friday’s order was placed by UNAHCO, one of the earliest adopters of OxC-beta. Since UNAHCO’s first order in November 2016 of 150 kilograms for use in swine feed, UNAHCO’s demand for the product has grown significantly. In April 2020, UNAHCO placed a three tonne order, which was 50% larger than any previous order, only to top that with a four tonne order In October of last year. Including …

Avivagen Announces First Purchase Order from Large Integrated Producer in Asia

Ottawa, ON / Business Wire/ April 26, 2021 / – Avivagen Inc.  (TSXV:VIV, OTCQB:VIVXF) (“Avivagen”), a life sciences corporation focused on developing and commercializing products for livestock, companion animal and human applications that safely enhances food production and supports immune function, thereby supporting general health and performance, is pleased to announce it has received its first purchase order from a large, integrated livestock producer in Thailand. The customer is a very large, well-known and respected swine and poultry producer in the region. This first purchase order from this customer, while modest in size, comes on the heels of several trials conducted by the customer with sows and piglets over the last nine months, whereby Avivagen’s OxC-beta^TM Livestock consistently outperformed any and all competitive alternatives.

“We are very excited about this purchase from a very large and established market leading livestock producer in Thailand,” said Kym Anthony, Avivagen’s CEO.  “It is our belief that this first purchase, similar to our experience with UNAHCO, will lead to a growing rollout over the coming quarters and years by the customer and is likely to influence other producers in the region to adopt our product. The real world evidence of the benefits of our product are leading to more customer wins and growing adoption of our OxC-beta™ Livestock product.”

With annual livestock feed production in 2020 of 21million tonnes[i] Thailand is an important market opportunity for Avivagen, not only due to its size but the fact that Thailand’s largest livestock export market remains the European Union, where AGPs (Antibiotics as Growth Promoters) have been banned since 2010

About OxC-beta™ Technology and OxC-beta™ Livestock

Avivagen’s OxC-beta™ technology is derived from Avivagen discoveries about ?-carotene and other carotenoids, compounds that give certain fruits and vegetables their bright colours. Through support of immune function the technology provides a non-antibiotic means of promoting health and growth. OxC-beta™ Livestock is a proprietary product shown to be an effective and economic alternative to the antibiotics commonly added to livestock feeds. The product is currently available for sale in the United States, Philippines, Mexico, Taiwan, New Zealand, Thailand, Brazil, Australia and Malaysia.

Avivagen’s OxC-beta™ Livestock product is safe, effective and could fulfill the global mandate to remove all in-feed antibiotics as growth promoters. Numerous international livestock trials with poultry and swine using OxC-beta™ Livestock have proven that the product performs as well as, and, sometimes, in some aspects, better than in-feed antibiotics.

About Avivagen

Avivagen is a life sciences corporation focused on developing and commercializing products for livestock, companion animal and human applications that, by safely supporting immune function, promote general health and performance.  It is a public corporation traded on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol VIV and is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada, based in partnership facilities of the National Research Council of Canada.
