PARIJS–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Pharnext SA (Paris:ALPHA) (FR00111911287 – ALPHA), a French biopharmaceutical company developing an advanced portfolio of products in the field of neurodegenerative diseases, today announced that Phase 2 clinical trial data related to PXT864, a PLEODRUG® developed for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), will be presented at the 9 th Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) conference, December 8-10, 2016 in San Diego (United States). Details are as follows:
Safety and clinical efficacy of PXT864 were assessed in 45 treatment-naïve patients with mild AD in a multicenter, exploratory, single blind Phase 2 study (PLEODIAL-I). Three doses of PXT864 were administered for 4 weeks followed by 4 weeks of placebo and then a 4-week re-challenge with PXT864. Subjects were then invited to continue study treatment (same dose received in PLEODIAL-I) for a further 24 weeks in the PLEODIAL-II extension study. Patients were treated with PXT864 for 32 out of 36 weeks in the PLEODIAL-I and II studies, and were allowed to use donepezil 5 mg, if their condition warranted treatment with a symptomatic agent, during the last 12 weeks of the study. PXT864 is a novel synergic fixed combination of baclofen and acamprosate given orally as a capsule twice a day. PXT864 was developed to restore the disrupted excitatory – inhibitory balance in the brain of patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases (disrupted by toxic factors such as Aβ oligomeric peptides in Alzheimer’s disease). PXT864’s most advanced target indication is Alzheimer’s disease. Development in other neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson’s disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are also planned.
