Altimmune (NASDAQ: ALT) has initiated the RECLAIM Phase 2 trial for pemvidutide in Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). The trial will evaluate the drug's efficacy and safety across approximately 15 U.S. sites, enrolling about 100 subjects in a 1:1 randomization to receive either 2.4 mg pemvidutide or placebo weekly for 24 weeks.
The trial's primary endpoint focuses on changes in alcohol consumption, measured by heavy drinking days per week at Week 24. Pemvidutide, a novel GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist, is also being studied for MASH, obesity, and alcohol liver disease (ALD). The company expects topline data from the IMPACT Phase 2b trial in MASH in Q2 2025 and plans to initiate a Phase 2 trial in ALD in Q3 2025.
The study addresses a significant market opportunity, with over 28 million individuals in the U.S. affected by AUD, where less than 10% receive treatment and 2% or less use approved medications.
