Latest progress from PharmNovo at EFIC
PharmNovo will participate in the 13th Congress of the European Pain Federation, EFIC, in Budapest from 20-22 September. The EFIC Congress is the largest international congress on pain.
“We are very much looking forward to the congress and to describe our latest progress. PharmNovo is at the forefront of the field, pioneering the development of a delta opioid agonist. At this stage, we are more than ready to present our successful outcomes to the meeting, and to share these with our peers, investors, and collaborators”, says PharmNovo's Founder and Scientific Advisor, Bengt von Mentzer.
Bengt von Mentzer will be presenting two posters on PharmNovo's PN6047, our innovative drug candidate for neuropathic pain:
- Toxicity and safety testing of PN6047 – a delta agonist
In preclinical studies, PN6047 is shown to be safe and well tolerated with a wide estimated therapeutic window and lacking abuse potential. Preliminary results from the human phase I study show a similar profile and strongly indicate that PN6047 will be safe and tolerable and able to enter phase II efficacy studies in neuropathic pain patients.
- Antitussive activity of delta opioid receptor agonists
New data indicate that delta opioid agonists could provide a potential novel therapy for chronic cough without the unwanted effects, such as reduced respiration, of conventional non-selective opioids.
“Our successful phase I study was executed with professionalism and speed. We have now passed several important milestones and are well on our way in our mission to launch PN6047 as a compound for treating neuropathic pain and other conditions involving hypersensitivity in the nervous system. We are excited to enter the next, phase 2, stage of clinical testing with the potential of providing a new therapy to the millions of people suffering from neuropathic pain” says Bengt von Mentzer.
