WESTON, Fla., July 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ZyVersa Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZVSA, or “ZyVersa”), a clinical stage specialty biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class drugs for treatment of inflammatory and renal diseases, announces that obesity and its related metabolic complications has been selected as the lead indication for Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100.

“Obesity, a well-established risk factor for an array of different metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance, type 2 Diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, has reached pandemic proportions, affecting up to two-thirds of the adult population in developed countries,” stated Stephen C. Glover, ZyVersa’s Co-founder, Chairman, CEO and President. “Published research demonstrating that inflammasome activation in fat tissue triggers cell death and systemic release of proinflammatory IL-1β, and ASC specks, which can perpetuate and spread inflammation leading to metabolic disturbances associated with obesity provides support for Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100 as a potential therapeutic option. We are excited about progressing our development program in this area of high unmet needs.”

Following is the rationale behind selection of obesity and related metabolic complications, and an overview of the development program.

Why Obesity and Related Metabolic Complications as an Indication?

  • Large Growing Market: The global obesity drug market reached nearly $24 billion in 2023, more than a sevenfold growth in just three years, and it is forecasted by IQVIA t to reach up to $131 Billion by 2028 (24 – 27% CAGR).
  • Significant Health and Economic Impact: Obesity, which now affects over 40% of Americans (CDC), is associated with multiple chronic medical conditions, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and some forms of cancer, at an annual cost and economic impact exceeding 1.4 trillion in the United States including healthcare expenditures, loss of productivity (Milken Institute).
  • Need for Alternative Mechanisms of Action to Complement GLP-1 agonists: While GLIP-1 drugs deliver meaningful weight loss, improve glucose control, and help to mitigate cardiovascular disease, they do not address the chronic tissue inflammation observed in adipose tissue, liver, muscle, and pancreatic islet cells that has emerged as a key feature of obesity. This chronic tissue inflammation, termed, “immunometabolism,” leads to insulin resistance, beta cell dysfunction, and development of type 2 diabetes and long-term inflammatory complications including microvascular disease (retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy), macrovascular disease (stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral arterial disease), heart failure, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. As such, anti-inflammatory drugs have potential to provide additional benefits in obesity management (Immunity. 2022 Jan 11;55(1):31-55).

Rationale for Inflammasome Inhibitors as a Treatment for Obesity and Related Metabolic Complications

Inflammasomes, which are activated by nutrients, such as glucose and free fatty acids, trigger activation and stimulation of downstream inflammatory pathways, leading to chronic inflammation in obesity (Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2023 Aug 31;14:1232171).

  1. Nutrient overload triggers inflammasome-induced inflammation in the brain’s hypothalamus, causing increased appetite and food intake, increasing the number and size of fat cells associated with weight gain and obesity.
  2. The fat cells become hypoxic, resulting in cell death and macrophage recruitment. This leads to inflammasome activation, death of inflamed cells, and systemic release of proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-1β, and ASC specks, spreading inflammation throughout the body. If unresolved, sustained inflammation leads to the metabolic complications of obesity.

Why Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100?

  • Multiple types of inflammasomes, not just NLRP3, are activated in obesity and related metabolic complications (NLRP1, NLRP3, NLRC4, and AIM2). Because IC 100 targets the inflammasome ASC component, it inhibits each of these inflammasomes, including NLRP3, with potential to better attenuate the damaging inflammation associated with obesity and its complications (Immunology. 2021 Aug;163(4):348-362).
  • Inflammation is spread and perpetuated by systemic release of proinflammatory IL-1β and ASC specks during death of inflamed cells, leading to obesity-related complications. IC 100 disrupts the structure and function of ASC specks, thereby attenuating spread and perpetuation of inflammation (Transl Res. 2022 Jul 3:S1931-5244(22)00150-5).

ZyVersa believes that inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100 administered concurrently with GLIP-1 agonists will lead to incremental weight loss, and more importantly, attenuate the chronic tissue inflammation not addressed by GLIP-1 agonists to reduce the long-term micro- and macrovascular inflammatory complications.

Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100 Development Plans for Obesity and Related Complications

  • IC 100’s preclinical program is nearing completion, with a planned Investigational New Drug (IND) submission Q4-2024, and Phase 1 clinical trial initiation shortly thereafter.
  • Preclinical scientific collaboration to assess IC 100 as a potential treatment for atherosclerosis, a common obesity-related metabolic complication, is expected to conclude H2-2024.
  • Preclinical scientific collaboration with University of Miami Miller School of Medicine to assess IC 100 as a potential treatment for obesity and metabolic syndrome is expected to begin H2-2024, with a second study looking at concomitant treatment with IC 100 and a GLIP-1 agonist to begin shortly thereafter.
  • ZyVersa has recruited six top-tiered experts in obesity and related metabolic complications for a scientific advisory board to guide clinical development plans for IC 100, which will be announced in the next few weeks.

About Inflammasome ASC Inhibitor IC 100

IC 100 is a novel humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that inhibits the inflammasome adaptor protein ASC. IC 100 was designed to attenuate both initiation and perpetuation of the inflammatory response. It does so by binding to a specific region of the ASC component of multiple types of inflammasomes, including NLRP1, NLRP2, NLRP3, NLRC4, AIM2, and Pyrin. Intracellularly, IC 100 binds to ASC monomers, inhibiting inflammasome formation, thereby blocking activation of IL-1β early in the inflammatory cascade. IC 100 also binds to ASC in ASC Specks, both intracellularly and extracellularly, further blocking activation of IL-1β and the perpetuation of the inflammatory response that is pathogenic in inflammatory diseases. Because active cytokines amplify adaptive immunity through various mechanisms, IC 100, by attenuating cytokine activation, also attenuates the adaptive immune response. The lead indication for IC 100 is obesity and its associated metabolic complications. To review a white paper summarizing the mechanism of action and preclinical data for IC 100, Click Here.

Release – Ocugen, Inc. Announces Completion of Dosing In Subjects With Geographic Atrophy Secondary To dAMD In High-Dose Cohort Of Phase 1/2 ArMaDa Clinical Trial Of OCU410—A Novel Modifier Gene Therapy

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

July 25, 2024

PDF Version

• Initiated Phase 2 clinical trial

MALVERN, Pa., July 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ocugen, Inc. (“Ocugen” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: OCGN), a biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing, and commercializing novel gene and cell therapies and vaccines, today announced that dosing is complete in the third cohort of its Phase 1/2 ArMaDa clinical trial for OCU410 (AAV-hRORA)—a novel modifier gene therapy candidate being developed for geographic atrophy (GA), an advanced stage of dry age-related macular degeneration (dAMD). GA affects approximately 1 million people in the United States.

“Currently, there are two FDA approved anti-complement therapies for GA, which targets only one pathway for a disease that has a multifactorial and complex etiology,” said Majda Hadziahmetovic, MD, Associate Professor of Ophthalmology, Vitreoretinal Diseases and Surgery, Duke University Eye Center, and the lead investigator for the OCU410 Phase 1/2 trial. “Though these treatments are a significant milestone, they provide limited benefits and involve a continuous regimen of multiple intravitreal injections over several years. This modifier gene therapy could potentially transform the landscape of GA treatment.”

Three subjects received a single subretinal administration of the highest dose (200 µL of 1.5×1011 vg/mL) being tested, which completed the dosing for the Phase 1 stage of the trial. The ArMaDa clinical trial for OCU410 is being performed at 14 leading retinal surgery centers across the United States.

“We are very encouraged about the potential of OCU410 as a one-time treatment option for GA,” said Dr. Huma Qamar, Chief Medical Officer of Ocugen.

We have initiated a Phase 2 clinical trial that will assess the safety and efficacy of OCU410 in a larger group of patients who will be randomized into either of two treatment groups (medium- or high-dose) or a control group.

The Company will continue to provide clinical updates on a periodic basis.

About the Phase 1/2 ArMaDa clinical trial
The ArMaDa Phase 1/2 clinical trial will assess the safety of unilateral subretinal administration of OCU410 in subjects with geographic atrophy and will be conducted in two phases. Phase 1 is a multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation study consisting of three dose levels [low dose (2.5×1010 vg/mL), medium dose (5×1010 vg/mL), and high dose (1.5 ×1011 vg/mL)]. Phase 2 is a randomized, outcome accessor-blinded, dose-expansion study in which subjects will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to either one of two OCU410 treatment groups or to an untreated control group.

About dry age-related macular degeneration (dAMD) and geographic atrophy (GA)
Dry age-related macular degeneration (dAMD) affects approximately 10 million Americans and more than 266 million people worldwide. It is characterized by the thinning of the macula, the portion of the retina responsible for clear vision in one’s direct line of sight. dAMD involves the slow deterioration of the retina with submacular drusen (small white or yellow dots on the retina), atrophy, loss of macular function, and central vision impairment. dAMD accounts for 85-90% of all AMD cases.

About OCU410
OCU410 utilizes an adeno-associated virus (AAV) platform for the retinal delivery of the RORA (ROR Related Orphan Receptor A) gene. The RORA protein plays an important role in lipid metabolism, reducing lipofuscin deposits and oxidative stress, and demonstrates an anti-inflammatory role as well as inhibiting the complement system in both in vitro and in vivo (animal model) studies. These results demonstrate the ability of OCU410 to target multiple pathways linked with dAMD pathophysiology. Ocugen is developing AAV-RORA as a one-time gene therapy for the treatment of geographic atrophy.

About Ocugen, Inc.
Ocugen, Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on discovering, developing, and commercializing novel gene and cell therapies and vaccines that improve health and offer hope for patients across the globe. We are making an impact on patients’ lives through courageous innovation—forging new scientific paths that harness our unique intellectual and human capital. Our breakthrough modifier gene therapy platform has the potential to treat multiple retinal diseases with a single product, and we are advancing research in infectious diseases to support public health and orthopedic diseases to address unmet medical needs.

Viking’s Surprise Move in the $150 Billion Weight Loss Race

Posted on by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com
Key Points:
– Viking Therapeutics stock surges 20% after announcing early advancement to late-stage trials for weight loss drug
– Company’s experimental injection VK2735 shows promising results, potentially rivaling industry giants
– Decision to skip additional mid-stage trial could accelerate drug’s market entry by a year
– Viking also developing a convenient monthly injection and oral version of the drug

In a stunning turn of events, the relatively unknown biotech company Viking Therapeutics has suddenly become the talk of Wall Street. The San Diego-based firm saw its stock price soar by over 20% on Thursday, following a game-changing announcement that has investors and health enthusiasts alike sitting up and taking notice.

The catalyst for this dramatic surge? Viking Therapeutics revealed its plans to fast-track its experimental weight loss injection, VK2735, directly into late-stage trials. This bold move, which comes earlier than expected, has positioned the company as a potential dark horse in the fiercely competitive GLP-1 market, currently dominated by pharmaceutical giants Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly.

The GLP-1 market, projected to balloon to a staggering $150 billion by the end of the decade, has been a battlefield for drug companies seeking to capitalize on the growing demand for effective weight loss solutions. Viking’s unexpected leap forward has not only caught the attention of investors but also sent ripples through the industry, with shares of both Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly dipping more than 1% in response.

What makes Viking’s VK2735 so promising? In a phase two trial, patients receiving weekly doses of the injection lost up to 14.7% of their body weight over just 13 weeks – an impressive figure that puts it in the same league as its more established competitors. But Viking isn’t stopping there. The company is also developing a monthly injection version of VK2735, which could offer a more convenient option for patients compared to the weekly regimens of current market leaders.

Adding another layer of intrigue, Viking is simultaneously working on an oral version of VK2735. In early-stage trials, this pill form demonstrated a 3.3% weight loss compared to placebo, opening up the possibility of a non-injectable alternative in the future.

The decision to skip an additional mid-stage trial and move directly to phase three could shave off a significant amount of time from Viking’s development timeline. Analysts now estimate that this strategic move could accelerate the drug’s market entry by as much as a year, potentially launching in 2028 instead of the previously projected 2029.

Viking’s CEO, Brian Lian, expressed confidence in the company’s direction during a recent earnings call, citing positive feedback from the Food and Drug Administration as a key factor in their decision to expedite the development process. The company is now preparing for a crucial meeting with the FDA in the fourth quarter to discuss the design and timing of the phase three trial.

As Viking Therapeutics gears up for this next critical phase, the biotech world watches with bated breath. Could this underdog company be on the verge of disrupting the weight loss drug market? With its promising results and aggressive development strategy, Viking is certainly positioning itself as a formidable contender in the race to capture a slice of the lucrative GLP-1 pie.

For investors and health-conscious individuals alike, the message is clear: keep a close eye on Viking Therapeutics. This small biotech firm might just be holding the key to the next big breakthrough in weight loss treatment.

Tech Giants’ Earnings Disappoint, Causing Stock Market Decline

Posted on by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com
Key Points:
– Nasdaq falls nearly 3% after disappointing earnings from Alphabet and Tesla
– Tech sector leads market decline, potentially signaling a shift in investor sentiment
– Economic data adds to concerns about U.S. economic health

The U.S. stock market experienced a significant downturn on Wednesday, primarily driven by underwhelming earnings reports from major technology companies. This event highlights the influential role these firms play in overall market performance.

The Nasdaq Composite, which is heavily weighted towards technology stocks, dropped by almost 3%, marking its largest single-day decline since late 2022. The broader S&P 500 index also fell by 1.7%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average decreased by 0.8%.

Two key players in the tech sector, Alphabet (Google’s parent company) and Tesla, reported earnings that fell short of investor expectations. Alphabet’s shares declined despite beating overall revenue and profit forecasts, as YouTube advertising revenue underperformed. Tesla’s stock price fell more sharply, following weaker-than-anticipated results and a decrease in automotive revenue compared to the previous year.

The disappointing performance of these tech giants had a ripple effect across the sector. Other major technology companies, including Nvidia, Meta Platforms, and Microsoft, also saw their stock prices decline in sympathy.

It’s worth noting that these large technology companies have been the primary drivers of market gains this year. Their outsized influence means that when they underperform, it can have a significant impact on overall market indices.

Interestingly, while large-cap tech stocks struggled, smaller companies showed resilience. The Russell 2000 small-cap index has performed well this month, potentially indicating a shift in investor focus towards a broader range of stocks.

Adding to market concerns, recent economic data painted a mixed picture of the U.S. economy. A report showed manufacturing activity unexpectedly contracting, while new home sales came in below expectations. These indicators raised questions about the overall health of the economy.

However, it’s important to maintain perspective. Despite the disappointing results from some tech giants, the broader earnings season has started positively. Over 25% of S&P 500 companies have reported second-quarter earnings, with about 80% exceeding expectations.

For investors, particularly those new to the market, this event serves as a reminder of the importance of diversification. Relying too heavily on a small group of high-performing stocks can increase risk. It also demonstrates that even the most successful companies can face challenges.

As we move forward, market participants will be closely monitoring upcoming earnings reports and economic data. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether this is a temporary setback or the beginning of a more significant market shift.

In conclusion, while days like this can be unsettling, they are a normal part of market dynamics. Understanding these fluctuations and maintaining a balanced, long-term perspective is key to navigating the complexities of the stock market.

Release – Beyond “One Bug, One Drug” – Tonix Pharmaceuticals Secures Up To $34 Million In Funding From The U.S. Department Of Defense To Develop a Broad-Spectrum Antiviral

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

Research News and Market Data on TNXP

July 24, 2024 7:45am EDT

CHATHAM, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / July 24, 2024 / From anthrax to the plague, biological warfare is a real threat to U.S. forces and civilians, so much so the Pentagon budgeted about $2 billion for the country’s biological defense for the coming fiscal year. It’s also why the U.S. Department of Defense is seeking broad-spectrum antiviral drugs and teaming up with the biotech companies developing them.

That’s the case with Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:TNXP), a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company. The DoD’s Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) recently inked a five-year deal with Tonix Pharmaceuticals 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. Through the Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) contracting vehicle, Tonix could get as much as $34 million in funding over five years.

“Through our agreement with DTRA, our broad-spectrum antiviral research program will address the DoD’s goal of protecting U.S. forces in the event biological weapons are introduced onto the battlefield,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Tonix. “This funding provides important validation for our ongoing research and current in-house capabilities and will enable Tonix to advance its antiviral discovery program.”

Stop Viruses In Their Tracks

Antiviral drugs are designed to stop a virus in its tracks by either attacking it or preventing it from spreading. In the case of Tonix’s program, the goal is to fortify the immune system so that it can protect against a range of viruses. Demand for antiviral drugs is rising along with the concerns about viruses on the battlefield. Viruses are changing, jumping back and forth between humans and animals and there’s the new risk that synthetic biology can be used maliciously, to make new viruses or to make existing viruses more virulent in what’s called “gain of function”. On the battlefield, the DoD is looking for antiviral drugs that can protect soldiers regardless of the agent. It is pouring money into different initiatives designed to react in the event of a biological attack.

Take DTRA’s Chemical and Biological Technologies Department which is sponsoring Tonix’s research. The department, which is funded out of DTRA’s approximately $1.9 billion budget for fiscal 2024, invests in medical countermeasure projects to fulfill its mission to anticipate future threats and equip the warfighter to survive, fight and win in chemical and biological contested environments.

Across the U.S. government, chemical and biological countermeasures programs have approximately $1.26 billion budgeted for fiscal 2024 and includes programs to reduce the risks to both U.S. troops and the global community from bacteria or viruses. The need to slow the spread of viruses and protect troops from biowarfare is just part of an over-all antiviral market estimated to reach $74.75 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 6.19%.

Attacking The CD45 Protein

Tonix Pharmaceuticals’ program will focus on optimizing and developing TNX-4200, the company’s oral CD45 antagonist program, which is designed to have broad-spectrum efficacy against a range of viral pathogens. This broad-spectrum capability is a move beyond the previous “one bug, one drug” approach and seeks to target a broad range of deadly agents through just a single drug. Reduction of CD45 activity, a protein tyrosine phosphatase, protects animals against many viruses, including the Ebola virus. Through this funding, Tonix expects to establish the treatment’s biological activity and safety in animals and then submit an Investigational New Drug application (IND) to conduct a first-in-human phase 1 clinical study.

Tonix said it plans to leverage previous research on phosphatase inhibitors – specifically compounds that target CD45 – to optimize compounds for therapeutic intervention of biothreat agents and provide the government with a broad-spectrum medical countermeasure. The idea behind Tonix’s compound is that partial inhibition of CD45 will provide optimal antiviral protection with an acceptable safety profile. The $34 million, five-year contract will help bankroll and accelerate the development of Tonix’s host-directed antivirals which have 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, reports the company.

Leveraging R&D Capabilities

To develop its program, Tonix plans to rely on what it says are 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 in Frederick, Maryland. The research center is located in Maryland’s I-270 biotech corridor and is close to the center of the U.S. biodefense research community. The research facilities will help to accelerate the development of vaccines and antiviral drugs against infectious diseases.

The threat of viruses, pandemics and biochemical attacks is increasing, driving demand for antivirals that can stop pathogens in their tracks. Tonix is betting it can deliver a single remedy to cover several viruses – and has up to $34 million to prove it.
