Release – Unicycive Therapeutics Announces Initial Positive Patient Satisfaction Findings From Pivotal Clinical Trial Of Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC)

Research News and Market Data on UNCY

July 10, 2024 7:03am EDT Download as PDF

– Patients preferred OLC more than 4 to 1 over their prior phosphate binder therapy –

– Median daily pill burden reduced by half after switch to OLC –

LOS ALTOS, Calif., July 10, 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 initial results from the patient reported outcome survey conducted during the UNI-OLC-201 pivotal clinical trial. The positive top-line results from the oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) trial in patients with hyperphosphatemia who have chronic kidney disease on dialysis were reported on June 25, 2024.

The patient reported outcomes are being evaluated from a satisfaction questionnaire that was a pre-specified exploratory objective of the study. The questionnaire surveyed patients in the UNI-OLC-201 trial to assess characteristics of their current phosphate binder as compared to OLC after switching medications. The questions included patient satisfaction, ease of use, and preferred therapy and were taken at the start and conclusion of the study. In the survey, OLC consistently outperformed the other phosphate binders in all categories: 79% of patients preferred OLC while 18% preferred their prior therapy, 98% of patients said that OLC was easy to take compared to 55% for their prior therapy, 89% of patients said they were satisfied with OLC while 49% were satisfied with their prior therapy.

“We are gratified by the encouraging patient reported findings from our pivotal trial that mirror the better-than-expected topline clinical results that we reported last month,” said, Shalabh Gupta, MD, Chief Executive Officer of Unicycive. “In the design of our pivotal clinical trial for OLC, we believed that it was important to consider the patient perspective and the personal challenges that they face in managing their hyperphosphatemia. Importantly, the results showed that patients preferred OLC greater than 4 to 1 over their prior phosphate binder therapy. Our focus is now directed toward filing our New Drug Application and making OLC available to patients who may benefit from its potential best-in-class profile, if approved.”

Pablo Pergola, MD, PhD, Research Director, Clinical Advancement Center, Renal Associates, P.A., and principal investigator for the UNI-OLC-201 trial, commented, “In this clinical study, our patients stated a clear preference for OLC over their prior phosphate lowering therapies. This positive patient reported experience with OLC is encouraging because hyperphosphatemia outcomes are often negatively impacted by non-adherence to phosphate lowering prescriptions due to side effects and high pill burden. At the end of the study, several of my patients asked not to be put back on their prior phosphate binder.”

Background

Patients screened to enter the trial were taking the following phosphate binder therapies (n=128): 52% Renvela® (sevelamer carbonate), 19% PhosLo® (calcium acetate, 15% Auryxia® (ferric citrate), 13% Velphoro® (sucroferric oxyhydroxide, and 1% Other. Once patients were enrolled into the trial, they went through a washout period for two weeks to clear their current phosphate binder from the body.

Key Findings

Preferred Therapy: In response to the question: Based on your experience in this clinical trial, do you prefer your current phosphate binder or OLC, 79% preferred OLC, 18% preferred their prior phosphate binder, and 3% preferred neither.

Ease of Use: In the trial, the median patient pill burden on OLC was reduced by half compared to their prior phosphate binder therapy. The pill burden on prior therapy at screening was a median of 6 (mean 6.5) pills per day. On OLC, the pill burden at the end of the study was a median of 3 (mean 3.9) pills per day.

In response to the question: My current phosphate binding medication is easy to take, 55% of patients agreed, 41% disagreed, and 4% neither agreed nor disagreed. In response to the question: Oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) is easy to take, 98% of patients agreed, 1% disagreed, and 1% neither agreed nor disagreed.

Patient Satisfaction: At screening, less than half of the patients in the study agreed with the statement, I am satisfied with my current phosphate binder medication. At the end of the study and after switching to OLC, 89% of patients agreed with the statement, I am satisfied with oxylanthanum carbonate. Only 6% expressed dissatisfaction with OLC.

The initial findings from the Oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC) pivotal trial satisfaction questionnaire are preliminary and subject to change based on further detailed analysis. Full survey results are expected to be presented at a future medical conference.

About Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC)

Oxylanthanum carbonate is a next-generation lanthanum-based phosphate binding agent utilizing proprietary nanoparticle technology being developed for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). OLC has over forty issued and granted patents globally. Its potential best-in-class profile may have meaningful patient adherence benefits over currently available treatment options as it requires a lower pill burden for patients in terms of number and size of pills per dose that are swallowed instead of chewed. Based on a survey conducted in 2022, Nephrologists stated that the greatest unmet need in the treatment of hyperphosphatemia with phosphate binders is a lower pill burden and better patient compliance.1 The global market opportunity for treating hyperphosphatemia is projected to be in excess of $2.5 billion in 2023, with the United States accounting for more than $1 billion of that total. Despite the availability of several FDA-cleared medications, 75 percent of U.S. dialysis patients fail to achieve the target phosphorus levels recommended by published medical guidelines.

Unicycive is seeking FDA approval of OLC via the 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway. As part of the clinical development program, two clinical studies were conducted in over 100 healthy volunteers. The first study was a dose-ranging Phase I study to determine safety and tolerability. The second study was a randomized, open-label, two-way crossover bioequivalence study to establish pharmacodynamic bioequivalence between OLC and Fosrenol. Based on the results of the bioequivalence study, pharmacodynamic (PD) bioequivalence of OLC to Fosrenol was established. A pivotal clinical trial was also conducted in CKD patients on hemodialysis that achieved the study objective and established favorable tolerability of OLC at clinically effective doses.

About Hyperphosphatemia

Hyperphosphatemia is a serious medical condition that occurs in nearly all patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). If left untreated, hyperphosphatemia leads to secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), which then results in renal osteodystrophy (a condition similar to osteoporosis and associated with significant bone disease, fractures and bone pain); cardiovascular disease with associated hardening of arteries and atherosclerosis (due to deposition of excess calcium-phosphorus complexes in soft tissue). Importantly, hyperphosphatemia is independently associated with increased mortality for patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis. Based on available clinical data to date, over 80% of patients show signs of cardiovascular calcification by the time they become dependent on dialysis.

Dialysis patients are already at an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (because of underlying diseases such as diabetes and hypertension), and hyperphosphatemia further exacerbates this. Treatment of hyperphosphatemia is aimed at lowering serum phosphate levels via two means: (1) restricting dietary phosphorus intake; and (2) using, on a daily basis, and with each meal, oral phosphate binding drugs that facilitate fecal elimination of dietary phosphate rather than its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract into the bloodstream.

About Unicycive Therapeutics

Unicycive Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing novel treatments for kidney diseases. Unicycive’s lead drug candidate, oxylanthanum carbonate (OLC), is a novel investigational phosphate binding agent being developed for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease patients on dialysis. UNI-494 is a patent-protected new chemical entity in clinical development for the treatment of conditions related to acute kidney injury. For more information, please visit Unicycive.com and follow us on LinkedInX, and YouTube.

Release – Fatburger and Round Table Pizza Announce Co-Branded Concept Headed to Utah

Research News and Market Data on FAT

Beloved California-Born Burger and Pizza Brands Set for Beehive State

LOS ANGELES, July 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc., parent company of FatburgerRound Table Pizza, and 16 other restaurant concepts, announces a new development deal set to bring the iconic California-based pizza and burger chains to Utah. In partnership with franchisee Blacksheep Hospitality Group, LLC, the new deal will bring a total of 12 co-branded Fatburger and Round Table Pizza franchised restaurants to the Beehive State over the next six years, with the first unit set to open in 2025.

“Since debuting the Fatburger and Round Table Pizza co-branded pairing last year, we now have over 50 plus units in the development pipeline,” said Taylor Wiederhorn, Chief Development Officer of FAT Brands. “This momentum can be attributed to the model’s success right out of the gate in Texas.

Ever since the first Fatburger opened in Los Angeles over 70 years ago, the chain has been known for its delicious, grilled-to-perfection and cooked-to-order burgers. Founder Lovie Yancey believed that a big burger with everything on it is a meal in itself. At Fatburger, “everything” is not just the usual lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, mustard, pickles and relish. Burgers can be customized with multiple patties and toppings including bacon and eggs. In addition to its famous burgers, the Fatburger menu also includes Fat and Skinny Fries, Turkeyburgers, hand-breaded Crispy Chicken Sandwiches, and hand-scooped Milkshakes made from 100% real ice cream.

Since its founding in 1959, Round Table Pizza has been recognized as “Pizza Royalty” for its homemade dough made from scratch and rolled fresh daily as well as for its dedication to using gold-standard ingredients like hand-sliced vegetables, high-quality meats, and the brand’s signature three cheese blend.

Release – MustGrow Joins Industry Consortium “Global Alliance Against TR4” to defeat Banana Fungal Disease Fusarium wilt TR4

Research News and Market Data on MGROF

Jul 9, 2024 

  • MustGrow joins alliance of international banana leaders, including Bayer, Chiquita, Del Monte, Dole, and Fyffes.
  • MustGrow is collaborating to bring its uniquely effective technologies to help address this global issue.
  • MustGrow’s mustard-derived biofungicide has shown efficacy versus TR4.

SASKATOON, Saskatchewan, Canada, July 9, 2024 – MustGrow Biologics Corp. (TSXV:MGRO) (OTC:MGROF) (FRA:0C0) (the “Company” or “MustGrow”) is pleased to accept membership into the Global Alliance Against TR4 (https://iica.int/en/global-alliance), an international consortium of world-leading banana players committed to defeat Fusarium wilt TR4 (“TR4”), a fungal disease jeopardizing the future of bananas.  MustGrow is collaborating to bring its uniquely effective technologies to help address this global issue, joining international banana leaders, including Bayer, Chiquita, Del Monte, Dole, and Fyffes.

“I celebrate the willingness of MustGrow to join forces in this endeavor to put an end to this hazard, and contribute in this manner to the food security and the economy of several families involved in the banana value chain,” Gabriel Rodríguez Marqués, IICA Representative in Paraguay Executive Secretariat of the Global Alliance Against TR4. “I extend my gratitude and underscore the assurances of my highest consideration.”

The deadly disease pathogen TR4 has been wreaking havoc and ravaging the $25 billion global banana industry – with infected plantations experiencing 100% loss and being quarantined for decades.  A flurry of apocalyptic media accounts are revealing a race to save bananas from extinction after the disease has left a trail of scorched banana plantations in its wake.

MustGrow vs. TR4

Under commercial partnership with Bayer, Bayer has the option to continue to build on MustGrow’s work in treating TR4.  MustGrow’s approach harnesses the natural defense mechanism of the mustard plant to develop organic, safe, and effective biofungicides and biopesticides to treat a variety of pests, fungus, and disease, including TR4.

MustGrow’s previously-disclosed work has demonstrated 100% control of TR4 in a laboratory setting of five different plate samples at five different application rates.  All 25 plates showed 100% disease control utilizing MustGrow’s biofungicide technology after a five-day period. In field trial settings, application of MustGrow’s biofungicide demonstrated positive dose response with reduced incidence and severity of TR4 symptoms in banana plants after 21 days. Importantly, even at higher application rates there was no damage or phytotoxic effects to the banana plants, allowing MustGrow to explore treating the banana plants directly, in addition to soil applications.

Sustainable innovations and green technologies are necessary to ensure agricultural production continues to address food safety and security as well as soil health. MustGrow’s rapidly developing solutions are focused on sustainable, safe, and effective, organic plant-based crop protection solutions that harness the mustard seed’s natural defense mechanism to treat diseases, pests and weeds.  MustGrow’s technology has shown consistent efficacy in multiple global regions, in multiple crops, in multiple applications, over multiple years.  The commercial development collaboration between Bayer and MustGrow demonstrates the importance of innovation in sustainable technologies in agricultural regions around the world.

Release – Tonix Pharmaceuticals Reports Final Positive Pre-NDA Meeting with FDA for Tonmya™ for the Management of Fibromyalgia

Research News and Market Data on TNXP

July 08, 2024 8:00am EDT

Tonmya is a potential new first-line, centrally acting non-opioid analgesic for the management of fibromyalgia

Approximately 10 million adults in the U.S. are affected by fibromyalgia, predominantly women

NDA submission target confirmed for second half 2024, with potential for FDA approval in second half 2025

CHATHAM, N.J., July 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced receipt of the formal minutes from a recent pre-New Drug Application (NDA) meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for Tonmya™ (cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) for the management of fibromyalgia. At the meeting, the Company and the FDA agreed that the proposed data package is sufficient to support the NDA submission. The Company reaffirmed its guidance to submit the NDA for Tonmya to the FDA in the second half of 2024 which would allow for a potential FDA approval in the second half of 2025.

“We are delighted with the results of this critical milestone meeting with the FDA to discuss our NDA, and we are appreciative of the FDA’s guidance throughout this process. We believe Tonmya has the potential to greatly benefit fibromyalgia patients, many of whom remain dissatisfied with the current treatment options, and many of whom turn to addictive, detrimental opioids as off-label treatments,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “The positive results from this pre-NDA meeting underscore the completeness of our data package in support of registration of Tonmya for the management of fibromyalgia.”

On June 20, 2024, Tonix announced receipt of formal minutes of a pre-NDA Type-B Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) meeting confirming alignment with the FDA on key CMC topics to support the NDA submission. Today’s announcement confirms alignment with the nonclinical, clinical pharmacology and clinical features of the NDA submission, following completion of Tonix’s second and final pre-NDA meeting.

About Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic pain disorder that is understood to result from amplified sensory and pain signaling within the central nervous system. Fibromyalgia afflicts an estimated 6 million to 12 million adults in the U.S., the majority of whom are women. Symptoms of fibromyalgia include chronic widespread pain, non-restorative sleep, fatigue, and brain fog (or cognitive dysfunction). Other associated symptoms include mood disturbances, including anxiety and depression, headaches, and abdominal pain or cramps. Individuals suffering from fibromyalgia struggle with their daily activities, have impaired quality of life, and frequently are disabled. Physicians and patients report common dissatisfaction with currently marketed products. According to the recent report from the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, fibromyalgia is a diagnosable condition that may also occur in the context of Long COVID.1

About Tonmya* (also known as TNX-102 SL)

Tonmya is a centrally acting, non-opioid, non-addictive, bedtime investigational drug. The tablet is a patented sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride developed for the management of fibromyalgia. In December 2023, the company announced highly statistically significant and clinically meaningful topline results in RESILIENT, the second pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial of Tonmya for the management of fibromyalgia. In the study, Tonmya met its pre-specified primary endpoint, significantly reducing daily pain compared to placebo (p=0.00005) in participants with fibromyalgia. Statistically significant and clinically meaningful results were also seen in all six key secondary endpoints related to improving sleep quality, reducing fatigue and improving overall fibromyalgia symptoms and function. RELIEF, the first statistically significant Phase 3 trial of Tonmya in fibromyalgia, was completed in December 2020. It met its pre-specified primary endpoint of daily pain reduction compared to placebo (p=0.010) and showed activity in key secondary endpoints. In both pivotal studies, the most common treatment-emergent adverse event was tongue or mouth numbness at the administration site, which was temporally related to dosing, self-limited, never rated as severe, and rarely led to study discontinuation (one participant in each study).

Release – Conduent Transportation Launches EMV Contactless Open Payment System on Venice Public Transportation Network

Research News and Market Data on CNDT

JULY 02, 2024

In time for summer, Venice public transportation network users can now pay for fares using contactless credit and debit cards

MILAN & FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — Conduent Transportation, a global provider of smart mobility technology solutions and business unit of Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT), today announced the launch of a contactless open payment system on the Venice transportation network managed by Azienda Veneziana della Mobilità (AVM).

The new EMV (Europay, Mastercard and Visa) open payment system allows passengers to pay with contactless credit and debit cards, offering easier access to AVM’s local public transport service in the metropolitan area of Venice, as well as the integrated mobility services in the urban area. The Conduent system also enables travelers to use NFC-enabled devices such as smartphones and smartwatches with digital wallets.

To support AVM’s transportation modernization initiative, Conduent supplied over 2,200 validators, which enable fare payment on Venice’s fleet of 149 vessels (water buses, speedboats, motorboats and ferries), more than 150 wharfs, 540 buses, 20 trams and two people movers. The validators offer a single point of validation not only for credit and debit cards but for all other media, such as Venezia Unica cards and electronic tickets. Approximately 180 million passengers travel on the Venice public transport network every year.

In addition, the system enables AVM to offer best fare pricing for the first time. Best fare pricing ensures that customers are automatically charged the lowest available price for the journeys taken each day.

“It’s been a few busy months of work that has made EMV technology a reality on the whole transport network managed by AVM,” said Giovanni Seno, General Manager of Gruppo AVM. “I thank all the company teams who have worked hard to achieve this important result, putting professionalism, competence and the desire to improve into their daily work. We have progressively improved the customer experience of the new validators – also listening to feedback received from passengers – and we are looking forward to the summer season with an innovation that has enormous potential, both in terms of market penetration and in terms of impact on our organization.”

“Conduent is honored to be part of AVM’s modernization program to enhance and elevate the network and experience for their passengers,” said Jean-Charles Zaia, President, Transit Solutions at Conduent. “Conduent contactless open payment systems, deployed around the world, are enhancing the services that transportation networks provide to benefit the passengers who use them.”

With Venice, Conduent has further expanded its deployment of EMV contactless open payment systems in the Veneto region, after implementing similar systems in Belluno and Verona . Conduent has also deployed contactless open payment systems in many cities in the Lombardy and Liguria regions.

Conduent Transportation and Elavon, as well as Visa, were selected by AVM in December 2022 to provide a convenient EMV payment system across its public transportation network.

Conduent Transportation is a leading provider of streamlined, high-volume mobility services and solutions, spanning road usage charging and advanced transit systems, that enhance the services provided by transportation agencies to benefit the citizens who use them. For over 50 years, the company has helped clients advance transportation solutions in more than 20 countries.

Release – Tonix Pharmaceuticals Awarded Up to $34 Million U.S. Department of Defense Contract for Accelerated Development of Broad-Spectrum Antiviral Program

Research News and Market Data on TNXP

Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) contract is expected to advance development of Tonix’s broad-spectrum oral antiviral program TNX-4200 for medical countermeasures

CHATHAM, N.J., July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced it has been awarded an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) with a potential for up to $34 million over five years by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), an agency within the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). The objective of the contract is to develop small molecule broad-spectrum antiviral agents for the prevention or treatment of infections to improve the medical readiness of military personnel in biological threat environments.

Tonix’s program will focus on optimization and development of its TNX-4200 program, to develop an orally available CD45 antagonist, with broad-spectrum efficacy against a range of viral families through preclinical evaluation. The program is expected to establish physicochemical properties, pharmacokinetics, and safety attributes to support an Investigational New Drug (IND) submission and to fund a first-in-human Phase 1 clinical study.

“Through our agreement with DTRA, our broad-spectrum antiviral research program will address the DoD’s goal of protecting U.S. Joint Forces in the event biological weapons are introduced onto the battlefield,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., President, and Chief Executive Officer of Tonix. “The DoD announced in December 2022 that they are moving beyond a ‘one bug, one drug’ approach and are seeking broad-spectrum drugs since one cannot predict which or how many viruses may be deployed.1 This funding provides important validation for our ongoing research and current in-house capabilities, and will enable Tonix to advance its antiviral discovery program.”

The $34 million five-year contract will help fund and accelerate the development of the Company’s broad-spectrum antiviral program, which has the potential to reduce viral load and allow the adaptive immune system to alert the other arms of the immune system to mount a protective response. Tonix plans to leverage previous research on phosphatase inhibitors, specifically compounds that target CD45, to optimize lead compounds for therapeutic intervention of biothreat agents and provide the government with a complete and cost-effective solution for a broad-spectrum medical countermeasure. Tonix’s premise is that partial inhibition of CD45 will provide optimal antiviral protection while requiring lower plasma drug concentrations, a lower dose, and a better safety profile.

Tonix will utilize its state-of-the-art research laboratory capabilities, including a Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3) lab and an Animal Biosafety Level 3 (ABSL-3) facility at its research and development center (RDC) located in Frederick, Md., as well as experienced personnel in-house. The RDC is located in Maryland’s ‘I-270 biotech corridor’ and is close to the center of the U.S. biodefense research community.
