BOTHELL, Wash., July 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. (Nasdaq: COCP) (“Cocrystal” or the “Company”) today reported favorable safety and tolerability results from the single-ascending dose (SAD) cohorts of the Phase 1 study in healthy volunteers with CDI-988, its potent, oral, pan-viral protease inhibitor. CDI-988 was specifically designed and developed using Cocrystal’s proprietary structure-based drug discovery platform technology as a broad-spectrum antiviral inhibitor to a highly conserved region in the active site of 3CL viral proteases. It is being developed as the first dual, broad-spectrum antiviral for the treatment of norovirus and coronaviruses.

“Based on a novel mechanism of action and superior broad-spectrum antiviral activity, CDI-988 is a strong candidate for advancement as a first-in-class oral treatment for both noroviruses and coronaviruses. We are pleased with the encouraging safety and tolerability data from the CDI-988 Phase 1 study SAD cohorts,” said Sam Lee, Ph.D., Cocrystal’s President and co-CEO. “We are currently manufacturing drug product for the multiple-ascending dose (MAD) cohorts of this study, with subject enrollment planned to begin in the fourth quarter of this year.”

The single-center, randomized, double-blind Phase 1 study is evaluating the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics including a food-effect cohort of orally administered CDI-988 compared with placebo in healthy adults and is being conducted in Australia. Study participants in the SAD cohorts received CDI-988 in doses ranging from 100 mg to 600 mg. All participants completed the study with no discontinuations. There were no serious adverse events or severe treatment-emergent adverse events. No clinically significant observations were noted in laboratory assessments, physical exams or electrocardiograms.

About Norovirus
Human noroviruses are highly contagious, constantly evolving, extremely stable in the environment and associated with debilitating illness. Symptoms include vomiting and diarrhea, with or without nausea and abdominal cramps. Norovirus infection can be much more severe and prolonged in specific risk groups including infants, children, the elderly and people with immunodeficiency. In the U.S. alone, noroviruses are responsible for an estimated 21 million cases of acute gastroenteritis annually, including 109,000 hospitalizations, 465,000 emergency department visits and nearly 900 deaths, according to the CDC. The NIH estimates the annual burden of noroviruses to the U.S. at $10.6 billion. Outbreaks occur most commonly in semi-closed communities such as nursing homes, hospitals, cruise ships, schools, disaster relief sites and military settings. To date, no antiviral treatment or vaccine is approved for norovirus infections.

Coronaviruses Including COVID-19 and Variants
Coronaviruses (CoV) are a family of viruses that historically have been associated with a wide range of symptoms, ranging from no symptoms at all to more severe disease that includes pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), kidney failure and death. By targeting the viral replication enzymes and protease, Cocrystal believes it is possible to develop an effective treatment for all coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2 and its variants, ARDS and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS). The ability of an asymptomatic individual to transmit infection heightened the public health challenge of COVID-19.

About Cocrystal Pharma, Inc.
Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company discovering and developing novel antiviral therapeutics that target the replication process of influenza viruses, coronaviruses (including SARS-CoV-2), noroviruses, and hepatitis C viruses. Cocrystal employs unique structure-based technologies and Nobel Prize-winning expertise to create first- and best-in-class antiviral drugs.

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

Posted on by aweinsoff@channelchek.com

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).

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, nonrestorative sleep, fatigue, and morning stiffness. Other associated symptoms include cognitive dysfunction and mood disturbances, including anxiety and depression. 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.

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

Tonmya is a centrally acting, non-opioid, non-addictive, bedtime medication. 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.

*Tonmya™ is conditionally accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as the tradename for TNX-102 SL for the management of fibromyalgia. Tonmya has not been approved for any indication.

Treatment with Tonmya™ (TNX-102 SL, sublingual cyclobenzaprine HCl) in Phase 3 RESILIENT study significantly reduced daily pain and demonstrated broad fibromyalgia symptom improvement, as demonstrated by significant improvement on the primary pain endpoint and on all six key secondary endpoints

RESILIENT was the second Phase 3 study to reach statistical significance on the primary endpoint

New Drug Application (NDA) submission to the FDA on track for the second half of 2024

CHATHAM, N.J., June 17, 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, presented data from a poster presentation at the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology (EULAR) 2024, held June 12-15, 2024 at the Messe Wien Congress Center in Vienna, Austria. A copy of the Company’s poster presentation is available under the Scientific Presentations tab of the Tonix website at www.tonixpharma.com.

In the poster presentation titled, “Targeting Non-Restorative Sleep in Fibromyalgia with Bedtime TNX-102 SL (Sublingual Cyclobenzaprine HCl) Significantly Improves Pain in RESILIENT, a Confirmatory Phase 3 Randomized Clinical Trial”, Tonyma met the pre-specified primary endpoint in the Phase 3 RESILIENT trial, significantly reducing daily pain compared to placebo (p-value=0.00005) in participants with fibromyalgia while also demonstrating broad syndromal improvement. Tonmya demonstrated statistically significant improvement in all six pre-specified key secondary endpoints including those related to improving sleep quality, reducing fatigue, and improving patient global ratings and overall fibromyalgia symptoms and function. Tonmya was well tolerated with an adverse event (AE) profile comparable to prior studies and no new safety signals observed.

In pre-specified exploratory analyses, Tonmya treatment also improved depressive symptoms measured by the Beck Depression Inventory and improved female sexual function by the Changes in Sexual Function Questionnaire in the RESILIENT trial.

“People suffering with fibromyalgia tend to struggle with daily activities, have impaired quality of life and are frequently disabled”, said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “We believe the activity of Tonmya on pain, sleep quality, fatigue cognitive dysfunction, and depression are indicative of the broad-spectrum activity of Tonmya, suggesting Tonmya treats fibromyalgia at a syndromal level. We are excited by the prospect of offering this patient population its potential first new therapy option in more than a decade.”

Tonix remains on track to submit an NDA to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the second half of 2024 for Tonmya for the management of fibromyalgia.

In the Phase 2 PREVAIL trial in fibromyalgia-type Long COVID, bedtime TNX-102 SL resulted in a signal in fatigue, sleep and cognitive function

Phase 2, investigator-initiated OASIS trial is designed to examine the safety and efficacy of TNX-102 SL in treating Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) after motor vehicle collision

First patient in OASIS expected to enroll in second quarter 2024

CHATHAM, N.J., May 30, 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 two poster presentations at the American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology (ASCP) Annual Meeting being held May 28-31, 2024 in Miami Beach, Fla. Copies of the presentations are available under the Scientific Presentations tab of the Tonix website at www.tonixpharma.com.

In the poster presentation titled, “Effect of Bedtime Sublingual Cyclobenzaprine (TNX-102 SL) on Pain, Sleep, Fatigue, and Cognition in Fibromyalgia-Type Long COVID: Results of a Double-Blind Randomized Proof-of-Concept Phase 2 Study,” TNX-102 SL showed a robust effect size of 0.5 in improving fatigue and showed consistent activity across secondary measures of sleep quality, cognitive function, disability and Patient Global Impression of Change, but did not meet the primary endpoint of multi-site pain reduction at Week 14. Prior to the trial, Tonix had pre-specified that any effect size greater than 0.2 would be considered of interest for further study and, even given a substantial placebo response in pain magnitude measurements, key endpoints such as sleep quality diary (ES = 0.23), PROMIS Sleep Disturbance (ES = 0.32), PROMIS Fatigue (ES = 0.50), PROMIS Cognitive Function (ES = 0.21), the Insomnia Severity Index (ES = 0.24) and the Sheehan Disability Scale (ES = 0.26) all matched the criterion for further evaluation. TNX-102 SL was well tolerated with an adverse event profile comparable to prior studies and no new safety signals observed.

“These results further support the growing evidence that for most Long COVID patients, symptoms are at least partly driven by central nervous system mechanisms rather than persistent exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 virus,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “While Tonix is preparing for submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) for TNX-102 SL for the management of fibromyalgia (branded “Tonmya”), we believe that these results demonstrate it may also be effective in managing pain and aiding in sleep quality for patients with fibromyalgia-type Long COVID, further indicating that for many patients Long COVID should be viewed in the context of a chronic overlapping pain condition like fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis framework.”

In the poster presentation titled, “Optimizing Acute Stress Reaction (ASR) Interventions with TNX-102 SL* (Sublingual Cyclobenzaprine HCl) – The OASIS Trial: Sustaining Civilian Performance Post-Trauma by Reduction of ASR and Prevention of ASD/PTSD,” TNX-102 SL will be evaluated for the reduction in severity of acute stress reaction (ASR) and the frequency of acute stress disorder (ASD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in civilians after a motor vehicle collision. To reduce the persistence of ASR symptoms and the rate and severity of ASD and PTSD, it may be critical to intervene in the immediate aftermath of trauma. Currently, there are no medications available at or near the point of care to treat patients suffering from acute trauma and support long-term health. Previous trials of TNX-102 SL showed that it reduced military PTSD symptoms in as early as two weeks with favorable tolerability. The first participant for the OASIS trial is expected to enroll in the second quarter of 2024.

“Previous trials of TNX-102 SL in PTSD suggested activity on sleep and stress related symptoms in the first several weeks of treatment,”1,2 said Dr. Lederman. “The study is motivated by the observation that the symptoms of ASR and PTSD are similar and by the hypothesis that TNX-102 SL’s effect on sleep quality may reduce ASR symptoms, possibly providing military personnel, veterans, and civilians with a new treatment option that, when administered in the early aftermath of a traumatic event, improves recovery, job performance, and quality of life.”

TNX-102 SL is a centrally acting, non-opioid medication, and, under the trade name Tonmya™, Tonix remains on track to submit an NDA to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the second half of 2024 for the management of fibromyalgia. Tonix has scheduled a Type B pre-NDA meeting with FDA for the second quarter of 2024.

The financing is expected to close the week of May 6, 2024, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The oversubscribed financing was led by BVF Partners LP and includes participation from new and existing investors.

Concurrently with the execution of the securities purchase agreement, Eledon and the investors entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the resale of the securities issued in the private placement.
