https://scrip.pharmamedtechbi.com/SC097980/Xigens-PhII-Success-In-Ocular-Inflammation-Opens-Doors Xigen’s Brimapitide, an innovative JNK inhibitor, delivers positive Phase II results in inflammatory eye disease. (PDF, 268 Kb) Auris Medical Achieves Midpoint for Enrollment in Phase 3 Trial of AM-111 in Sudden DeafnessZUG, Switzerland, Sept. 9, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
Dual kinase inhibition affords extended in vitro neuroprotection in Aβ toxicityGourmaud et al, Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, 2016, PMID: 27636848
The present study show that PKR (double-stranded RNA dependent kinase) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathways are actively activated in Aβ-induced neurotoxicity in neuronal cultures and that the dual inhibition of PKR and JNK (using XG-102 and XG-104) nearly completely blocked neuronal death in vitro. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27636848 Sub-conjunctival injection of XG-102, a JNK inhibitor peptide, in patients with intraocular inflammation: A safety and tolerability studyBeydoun et al, Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2015, PMID: 25347151
In this clinical trial, XG-102 administered as a single subconjunctival injection as adjunct therapy in patients with recent post-surgery or post-trauma intraocular inflammation is safe and well tolerated.

The present clinical trial concluded that XG-102 single IV doses of 10-80 μg/kg administered over 1 h to healthy male subjects were safe and well tolerated.

The clinical study established proof of concept for AM-111 in the treatment of severe-to-profound acute sensorineural hearing loss (ASNHL). Control for spontaneous hearing recovery is essential for ASNHL studies https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24979398 Sub-conjunctival injection of XG-102, a c-Jun N-Terminal Kinase inhibitor peptide in the treatment of endotoxin-induced uveitis in ratsEl Zaoui et al, Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2014, PMID: 25313830
The study determined optimal XG-102 dose and route of administration in endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU) in rats with the purpose of clinical study design. The results confirm that XG-102 peptide has potential for treating intraocular inflammation. Sub-conjunctival injection appears as a good compromise to provide a therapeutic effect while limiting side effects.

Molecular mechanisms involved in programmed cell death of hair cells [HCs] are different than the ones involved in programmed cell death of supporting cells [SCs]. Local delivery of AM-111 provided a significant level of protection against electrode insertion trauma [EIT]-induced hearing losses, HC losses, and damage to neural elements. Protection against ischemic cochlear damage by intratympanic administration of AM-111Omotehara et al, Otology Neurology, 2011, PMID: 22089955
Direct application of AM-111 in gel formulation on the round window was effective in preventing acute hearing loss because of transient cochlear ischemia. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22089955 Auris Medical secures CHF 47.1 mn Series C financing from Sofinnova Ventures and Sofinnova Partners to advance ground-breaking inner ear therapies through Phase III clinical developmentD-JNKI-1 treatment prevents the progression of hearing loss in a model of cochlear implantation traumaEshraghi et al, Otology Neurology, 2006, PMID: 16791042
Hearing loss caused by cochlear implant electrode insertion trauma in guinea pigs has both acute and delayed components. The delayed component can be prevented by treating the cochlea with D-JNKI-1. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16791042 |
