Aspire Biopharma Holdings, Inc., Announces Last Patient Dosed in Phase 1 Clinical Trial of its Oral Transmucosal Fast-Acting High-Dose Aspirin Formulation
Aspire Biopharma Holdings (NASDAQ:ASBP) has completed patient dosing in its Phase 1 clinical trial for its oral transmucosal fast-acting high-dose aspirin formulation. The study compares the company's sublingual 162.5 mg aspirin powder against traditional oral aspirin in healthy adult volunteers.
The trial evaluates plasma acetylsalicylic acid concentration, Arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation, and Serum thromboxane B2 measurements to assess the formulation's rapid impact on cardiac events. Topline results are expected by mid-Q3 2025, after which Aspire plans to pursue a section 505(b)(2) NDA and explore potential partnership opportunities.
Aspire Biopharma Holdings (NASDAQ:ASBP) ha completato la somministrazione ai pazienti nella sua sperimentazione clinica di Fase 1 per la formulazione orale transmucosa ad azione rapida di aspirina ad alto dosaggio. Lo studio confronta la polvere sublinguale di aspirina da 162,5 mg dell'azienda con l'aspirina orale tradizionale in volontari adulti sani.
La sperimentazione valuta la concentrazione plasmatica di acido acetilsalicilico, l'aggregazione piastrinica indotta da acido arachidonico e le misurazioni del trombossano B2 nel siero per analizzare l'impatto rapido della formulazione sugli eventi cardiaci. I risultati principali sono attesi entro la metà del terzo trimestre 2025, dopo di che Aspire prevede di presentare una NDA ai sensi della sezione 505(b)(2) ed esplorare potenziali opportunità di partnership.

Insights
Aspire Biopharma completes Phase 1 dosing on schedule; key efficacy data for fast-acting aspirin formulation expected Q3 2025.
Aspire Biopharma has achieved a noteworthy operational milestone with the completion of patient dosing in their Phase 1 trial for a novel sublingual high-dose aspirin formulation. The study's design focuses on comparing their 162.5 mg sublingual powder against traditional oral aspirin, with primary endpoints examining plasma concentration kinetics over 24 hours post-administration.
The trial includes critical secondary measurements of platelet aggregation and serum thromboxane B2 levels over 8 hours—biomarkers that will directly demonstrate if their formulation achieves the rapid onset needed for acute cardiac events. This speed-of-action advantage would be the key differentiator for their product.
From a regulatory perspective, Aspire's planned 505(b)(2) NDA pathway is strategically sound for reformulated products, potentially enabling a more streamlined approval process by leveraging established safety data for aspirin. This approach balances efficiency with lower development costs compared to novel compounds.
While meeting enrollment timelines demonstrates operational competence, investors should recognize that as a Phase 1 study, this trial primarily establishes basic pharmacokinetics and safety rather than definitive efficacy. The true inflection point will come with the Q3 data readout, which will determine whether the formulation achieves the rapid absorption profile necessary to support its value proposition in emergency cardiac care.
The management's mention of potential partnership discussions signals confidence in their preliminary data and recognition that commercializing an emergency cardiac medication would benefit from established distribution channels and sales infrastructure that strategic partners could provide.
Enrollment Completed on Schedule; Topline Results Expected Mid Q3 2025
ESTERO, FL AND NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / June 24, 2025 / Aspire Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:ASBP) ("Aspire" or the "Company"), developer of a multi-faceted patent-pending drug delivery technology, today announced the last patient was dosed in its Phase 1 single-center clinical study of its oral transmucosal fast-acting high-dose aspirin formulation.
Topline results from the study are anticipated by the middle of third quarter of 2025.
"The successful completion of patient dosing in our Phase 1 trial is a noteworthy accomplishment. We are extremely grateful to the investigator and patients who participated in this study. Achieving this milestone on time and as planned per protocol also demonstrates the operational excellence of our team and clinical partners," said Michael Howe, Chief Executive Officer of Aspire. "We look forward to reporting initial safety and efficacy data in the third quarter, which will provide key insights into our formulation of high-dose aspirin and its potential as a fast-acting treatment option for suspected acute myocardial infarction. Following the receipt of the topline results, we plan to continue discussions with the FDA to ensure our path forward is well-aligned with regulatory expectations."
Howe added, "We are eager to integrate the insights from this trial into our comprehensive development plan. We believe these trial results will also play a key role in our strategy to pursue potential partnership opportunities."
Phase 1 Study Design
The Phase 1 clinical trial, which is being conducted in the United States, compares the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of normal healthy adult volunteers after the administration of our sublingual dose of 162.5 mg aspirin powder with control healthy subjects given 162.5 mg oral aspirin (approximately two 81 mg aspirin tablets). The primary outcome measure will be plasma acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) concentration versus time data (pre-dose and up to 24 hours post-dose). The trial also measures Arachidonic acid (AA)-induced platelet aggregation over 8 hours after dosing and Serum thromboxane B2 (TxB2) over 8 hours after dosing, both of which are valuable for documenting Aspire's sublingual high-dose aspirin's rapid impact on cardiac events.
Following completion of this trial, Aspire plans to submit a section 505(b)(2) NDA seeking approval to market the high-dose aspirin product.
