Release – Tonix Pharmaceuticals, Set to File an NDA for Tonmya for the Management of Fibromyalgia, is Planning Expected Launch in 2H 2025

Research News and Market Data on TNXP

July 17, 2024 8:00am EDTDownload as PDF

CHATHAM, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / July 17, 2024 / With the completion of its final pre-NDA meeting with the FDA, Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:TNXP) announced it is filing an NDA submission in 2H 2024 and laying plans for the commercial launch of Tonmya™* for the management of fibromyalgia, assuming approval by the FDA in 2H 2025.

The fibromyalgia market has not seen a new FDA-approved drug in over 15 years. And now with two drugs making their way through the FDA – Tonix’s Tonmya and one from another U.S. company – there could be the prospect of a two-drug rivalry reminiscent of the 2010s when two blockbuster fibromyalgia drugs together created $10 billion in peak sales.

Fibromyalgia Landscape

According to an opportunity analysis commissioned by Tonix and carried out by Eversana for Tonix’s drug, Tonmya™, fibromyalgia affects around 2.7 million diagnosed and treated patients in the United States. Despite the high prevalence of this condition, the treatment landscape has remained largely stagnant for over 15 years. The last approved medication was approved in 2009, and two earlier ones were approved in 2008 and 2007.

Despite widely reported side effects and tolerability issues, the two biggest selling fibromyalgia drugs generated combined peak sales of approximately $5 billion each. Both are now generic. A big difference about the fibromyalgia market today is that the condition is widely accepted. Before the heydays of the two blockbusters, many doctors doubted the existence of fibromyalgia due to the lack of visible physical signs and specific diagnostic tests. Many believe that fibromyalgia was overlooked because it affects mostly women.

Tonix will be competing for a slice of a global market that was valued at over $3 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 3.8% from 2024 to 2030.

Tonix Enters the Ring with Tonmya

Tonmya is a new therapeutic class and unlike the three currently approved fibromyalgia drugs, which are involved in the uptake of both serotonin and norepinephrine or are more specific for norepinephrine than serotonin. The other new drug candidate heading for FDA approval is very specific for norepinephrine and does not affect serotonin.

Tonmya (also known as TNX-102 SL) is a non-opioid, non-addictive sublingual tablet designed for bedtime use. Tonmya is a sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride, which has improved sleep quality in clinical studies. Sleep quality is different than sleep quantity – or the amount of time spent asleep. By focusing on sleep quality, Tonmya is different from conventional sleep drugs. Traditional sleep aids like Ambien® fail to manage the type of sleep disturbances that exacerbate fibromyalgia symptoms.

In the latest Phase 3 trial, Tonmya showed a statistically significant improvement in fibromyalgia pain with a p-value of 0.00005. Tonix reports that statistically significant results were also seen in improving sleep quality, reducing depression and fatigue and improving overall fibromyalgia symptoms and function. Tonmya was well tolerated and the most common adverse events were transient sensations in the mouth corresponding with the disintegration of the tablets under the tongue.

Tonmya has been conditionally accepted by FDA as a trade name for the management of fibromyalgia. Tonix says it will file a new drug application (NDA) with the FDA in the second half of this year and has completed both manufacturing and multi-disciplinary-focused pre-NDA meetings with FDA.

As the anticipated NDA filing and FDA approval dates for Tonmya and a second new drug draw near, a battle in the fibromyalgia market heats up. Tonix Pharmaceuticals, with its innovative approach and promising clinical trial results, could be well positioned to disrupt a market long dominated by a few large players.

ENSURES INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION UNTIL 2040

LOS ALTOS, Calif., July 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Unicycive Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: UNCY), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies for patients with kidney disease (the “Company” or “Unicycive”), today announced the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 12,036,211 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for UNI-494.

The patent, valid until 2040, secures protection of a method of treating a disease or a condition selected from acute kidney injury or contrast induced nephropathy by administering the UNI-494 compound. The UNI-494 compound covered in the method of use claims is not limited to a particular salt, dose or type of administration. UNI-494 is a novel nicotinamide ester derivative and a selective ATP-sensitive mitochondrial potassium channel activator. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a critical role in the progression of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease.

“We are pleased to receive this patent from the USPTO, which ensures intellectual property protection for many years to come,” said Shalabh Gupta, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Unicycive. “This Method of Use patent for UNI-494 is an important component of our strategy to become a leader in the development of drugs that target kidney disease. UNI-494 is currently in an ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial and recently received Orphan Drug Designation in Delayed Graft Function, a form of acute kidney injury. This patent helps protect our approach and expands our portfolio as we look to develop novel treatments for kidney diseases.”

About UNI-494

UNI-494 is a novel nicotinamide ester derivative and a selective ATP-sensitive mitochondrial potassium channel activator. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a critical role in the progression of acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. UNI-494 has a novel mechanism of action that restores mitochondrial function and may be beneficial for the treatment of several diseases including kidney disease. Unicycive is currently conducting a Phase 1 dose-ranging safety study in healthy volunteers in the United Kingdom that is expected to complete in the second half of 2024. UNI-494 is protected by issued patent(s) in the U.S. and Europe and a wide range of patent applications worldwide. UNI-494 has been granted orphan drug designation (ODD) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the prevention of Delayed Graft Function (DGF) in kidney transplant patients.

About Acute Kidney Injury

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is defined as a sudden loss of kidney function that is determined on the basis of increased serum creatinine levels and decreased urine output and is limited to a duration of 7 days. The primary causes of AKI include sepsis, ischemia, hypoxia, and drug-induced nephrotoxicity. Delayed Graft Function is a type of acute kidney injury that occurs in the first week after kidney transplantation. AKI is estimated to occur in 20-200 per million population in the community, 7-18% of patients in the hospital, and approximately 50% of patients admitted to the intensive care unit. Importantly AKI is associated with morbidity and mortality; an estimated 2 million people die of AKI worldwide every year whereas survivors of AKI are at increased risk of chronic kidney disease and end stage renal disease.

About Unicycive Therapeutics

“We’re grateful for the opportunity to serve Wisconsin, supporting DCF as it facilitates the modernization of the state’s child support program,” said Kim Newsom Bridges, Senior Director, Child Support Solutions at Conduent. “We applaud DCF for taking the steps necessary to better serve constituents, and we appreciate the trust placed in Conduent to help the department achieve its vision in the years to come.”

The planned modernization for Wisconsin follows Conduent’s success in developing and deploying two federally certified, statewide child support system projects, supporting Delaware and South Carolina . In 2023, Conduent also announced the implementation of an advanced cloud-based system for New Hampshire’s Department of Health and Human Services.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – July 11, 2024) – Hemisphere Energy Corporation (TSXV: HME) (OTCQX: HMENF) (“Hemisphere” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) has accepted the Company’s Notice of Intention to renew of its Normal Course Issuer Bid (the “NCIB”) to purchase for cancellation, from time to time, as Hemisphere considers advisable, up to 8,255,766 common shares (“Common Shares”) of the Company, representing approximately 10% of the current public float of the Common Shares.

Purchases of Common Shares will be made on the open market through the facilities of the TSXV. For any Common Shares purchased, Hemisphere will pay the prevailing market price of the Common Shares. The actual number of Common Shares that may be purchased for cancellation and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by the Company and dependent on market conditions.

The Company is commencing the NCIB because it believes that, from time to time, the market price of its Common Shares may not properly reflect the underlying, intrinsic value of the Company, and that, at such times, the purchase of Common Shares for cancellation will increase the proportionate interest of, and be advantageous to, all remaining shareholders.

The NCIB will commence on July 14, 2024 and will terminate on July 13, 2025 or at such earlier time as the NCIB is completed or terminated at the option of Hemisphere. The Company has retained Canaccord Genuity Corp. as its broker to conduct the NCIB on its behalf.

Under the Company’s previous notice of intention to conduct a normal course issuer bid, the Company sought and received approval of the TSXV to purchase 8,670,636 Common Shares for the period from July 14, 2023 to July 13, 2024. During that period, the Company purchased 4,074,400 Common Shares on the open market at a weighted-average price of $1.425 per Common Share.

Release – Comtech Completes First Province-wide Migration to NG9-1-1 Infrastructure in Canada

Research News and Market Data on CMTL

BY THE COMTECH EDITORIAL TEAM – JUL 11, 2024 | 2 MIN READ

CHANDLER, Ariz. – July 11, 2024– Comtech (NASDAQ: CMTL) (the “Company”), a global technology leader, today announced it recently completed the full migration and deployment of a Next Generation 9-1-1 (“NG9-1-1”) system in Saskatchewan-marking a significant milestone for the Company and Canada’s NG9-1-1 infrastructure.

In October 2023, Comtech helped Strathcona County in Alberta become Canada’s first Public Safety Answering Point (“PSAP”) to transition to NG9-1-1 services. With the Saskatchewan NG9-1-1 deployment, Comtech is now the first company, in partnership with leading Emergency Services IP Network (“ESInet”) provider SaskTel, to deploy a province-wide NG9-1-1 system in Canada.

“We are honored to build on our longstanding partnership with SaskTel to complete this critical NG9-1-1 transition in Saskatchewan,” said Aaron King, General Manager of Comtech’s Solacom Technologies Division. “With a government mandate to transition to NG9-1-1 services by March 2025, Comtech is partnering with Canada’s public safety agencies to lead the way in building one of the first national transitions to a NG9-1-1 infrastructure. This province-wide NG9-1-1 deployment paves the way for other NG9-1-1 migrations across Canada that will empower PSAPs throughout the country with the ability to leverage new technologies that can significantly enhance safety, reliability, and response in a wide range of emergency situations.”

In addition to the Saskatchewan NG9-1-1 deployment, Comtech also recently completed a local NG9-1-1 PSAP migration in Ontario, Canada. With these NG9-1-1 migrations complete, Comtech is the first public safety provider in Canada to partner with all three major ESInet suppliers in the country-SaskTel, Bell, and Telus-to build out the nation’s NG9-1-1 infrastructure.

As one of the most trusted providers of public safety technologies, Comtech is continuing to expand its NG9-1-1 call routing and call handling solutions, including the Company’s Guardian Call Management platform, for governments and emergency response providers across the globe. The Company’s NG9-1-1 offerings are designed to adapt and continuously evolve over time to meet the needs of emerging use cases as well as future applications.
