BioVie Inc. (NASDAQ: BIVI) recently reported significant advancements with its drug candidate NE3107 for treating Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). In a trial, PD patients using NE3107 experienced a meaningful increase in motor control after 28 days. Additional data indicated that NE3107 improved cognition in mild cognitive impairment and mild AD patients. Notably, NE3107 reduced biomarkers of aging-related disease by approximately 3.3 years after 3 months of treatment. The company is moving toward Phase 3 trials based on promising results.
BioVie Inc. (NASDAQ: BIVI), a clinical-stage company, announced positive findings from its Phase 2 trial for NE3107, aimed at improving cognitive functions in Alzheimer's patients. The study revealed NE3107 may reduce Horvath DNA methylation SkinBlood clock by 3.3 years after 3 months of treatment. Among 23 patients, results indicated significant cognitive enhancement, with 2.2 point improvement on the modified ADAS-Cog12 scale and a reduction in CSF phospho-tau levels. No adverse events were reported, suggesting NE3107's potential in addressing aging-related diseases.
BioVie Inc. (BIVI) announced positive results from two Phase 2 trials evaluating NE3107 for Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. In the Parkinson's trial, patients receiving NE3107 with levodopa achieved a clinically meaningful improvement of over 3 points in motor function compared to levodopa alone. Notably, those under 70 saw a 6-point enhancement. In the Alzheimer's trial, NE3107 improved cognition, showing a 2.1-point gain on the ADAS-Cog12 scale. Additionally, biomarkers related to neuroinflammation decreased without any adverse effects reported.
BioVie Inc. (BIVI) has increased the enrollment target for its Phase 3 trial evaluating NE3107 in Alzheimer’s patients from 316 to 400 due to rapid recruitment and favorable safety data. Over 316 patients are already enrolled, and the company anticipates completing enrollment in two months, with topline results expected by 3Q2023. The trial aims to assess cognition and functional improvement in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. The decision to expand enrollment is based on positive early findings and the absence of serious adverse events.
