Algernon Pharmaceuticals Inc. has received a Notice of Allowance from the USPTO for its patent application 17/258,402, which pertains to the treatment of Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) using its lead drug, NP-251 (Repirinast). This significant allowance covers compositions and methods for treating non-alcohol fatty liver disease, supported by data showing Repirinast reduced hepatic fibrosis by 57% and NAFLD scores significantly. The company emphasizes that Repirinast is also a candidate for chronic kidney disease due to its efficacy in reducing fibrosis. In addition, Algernon aims to protect its intellectual property through international patent applications. This is a milestone for Algernon's drug repurposing program, according to CEO Christopher J. Moreau.
Algernon Pharmaceuticals has completed dosing the second cohort in its Phase 1 clinical study of an intravenous DMT formulation, AP-188. The study aims to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of DMT when administered via prolonged infusion. Following safety review committee approval, the final cohort will begin dosing soon. The study plans to include up to 60 volunteers, both experienced and inexperienced with psychedelics. The company is also collaborating with experts to prepare for Phase 2 trials aimed at treating brain injuries. Algernon has patented new formulations of DMT for potential stroke-related applications.
