Phase 1 trial to test under-the-skin injection of sevuparin in sickle cell patients
Modus Therapeutics is going to launch a Phase 1 clinical study in the United States to evaluate the potential of its lead candidate sevuparin for the treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD).
In the trial, the company will broaden the clinical scope and usefulness of sevuparin to treat sickle cell disease by testing its safety when administrated subcutaneously (under the skin).
This follows the acceptance by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of an investigational new drug (IND) application for sevuparin.
Modus Therapeutics is currently evaluating the therapeutic activity of sevuparin to manage painful crisis, also known as acute vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC), in patients with sickle cell disease in an ongoing Phase 2 study (NCT02515838).
