Today we reached another exciting clinical milestone in our journey to deliver a paradigm shift in the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases, announcing positive data from a Phase Ib/IIa #cardiovascular risk study of our lead brain-penetrant #NLRP3 #inflammasone inhibitor candidate, NT-0796. The trial met its primary endpoint, demonstrating a highly statistically significant and rapid reduction of C-reactive protein (CRP), a key biomarker of chronic #cardiometabolic inflammatory diseases, in inflamed obese subjects dosed with NT-0796 compared to placebo. The study also saw reductions in body weight, the most pronounced among high-risk subgroups, supporting the anti-obesity potential of the molecule. Preparations are now underway for a Phase II #obesity study alongside other Phase IIa studies in additional cardiometabolic diseases and #ParkinsonsDisease.

We are pleased to share NodThera’s latest research publication detailing preclinical pharmacology of our clinical-stage drug candidate, NT-0249, establishing its potency and selectivity as an #NLRP3 inhibitor: https://lnkd.in/daSUf7Kb NT-0249 has been evaluated in animal models demonstrating dose-dependent PK/PD relationships and efficacy in a mouse model of cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS) where it significantly reduced levels of inflammatory biomarkers including IL-1β, thus confirming in vivo target engagement. Our findings not only underscore the pharmacological potential of NT-0249 but also shed light on the level of target suppression needed for clinical benefit. Stay tuned for further developments as we continue to innovate for a healthier future!

We're thrilled to announce that our recent publication, "Reversal of High Fat Diet-Induced Obesity, Systemic Inflammation, and Astrogliosis by the #NLRP3 #Inflammasome Inhibitors NT-0249 and NT-0796," has been selected as the Editor's Choice in March's issue of the Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (JPET) as well as ranked as the most read article! These recognitions underscore our commitment to groundbreaking research in combating chronic diseases linked to inflammation. Our findings pave the way for new therapeutic strategies in addressing chronic systemic #inflammation, showcasing the potential of our investigational drugs, NT-0249 and NT-0796 , as pivotal in the fight against these conditions. A heartfelt thank you to our dedicated team and the scientific community for acknowledging our work. Together, we're making strides toward a healthier future. Stay tuned for further updates as we continue to advance in our mission to revolutionize inflammatory disease treatment. The link to the publication: https://lnkd.in/d28K3d6D

This April, as we observe #Parkinson's Awareness Month, we at NodThera are more committed than ever to our mission of advancing the fight against neuroinflammatory conditions, including Parkinson's disease. Our dedicated team is at the forefront of developing innovative anti-inflammatory therapeutics designed to modulate #NLRP3 #inflammasome activity. We aim not only to alleviate symptoms but also to address the underlying mechanisms of the disease, offering hope for more effective treatments. You can read more about our work here: https://lnkd.in/dGDSYNSC As we mark this important month, we're reminded of the urgency of our mission and the impact it has on individuals and families affected by Parkinson's. We're inspired by their strength and resilience and motivated by the possibility of making a significant difference in their lives. Join us in raising awareness about Parkinson's disease and the critical need for innovative treatments. Together, we can make a profound impact.

Following the publication of our #obesity research last month, NodThera features in a new piece in BioCentury Inc., in which Stephen Hansen explores the potential of #NLRP3 #inflammasome inhibitors to enhance cardiometabolic benefits: https://lnkd.in/e8b9VFfG In a landmark study, our compounds, NT-0796 and NT-0249, delivered significant weight loss and extensive cardiometabolic improvements in preclinical models of obesity. NT-0796 is currently progressing in a Phase Ib/IIa #cardiovascular risk trial, targeting CRP levels, a crucial inflammatory marker of #atherosclerotic #cardiovascularDisease risk. #ICYMI #Pharma #DrugDiscovery #Neuroinflammation #Biotech
