(RTTNews) – Dogwood Therapeutics, Inc. (DWTX), a development-stage biotechnology firm, introduced on Monday the top-line information from the just lately accomplished BHC IMC-2 Lengthy-COVID research.
In keeping with the corporate, IMC-2 therapy, dosed as valacyclovir 750 mg + celecoxib 200 mg twice day by day, demonstrated a clinically significant discount in long-term COVID-related fatigue and sleep disturbance as in comparison with placebo.
The research was carried out by way of an investigator-initiated, investigational analysis grant offered to the Bateman Horne Heart.
“Thus far, there aren’t any FDA-approved medicines to deal with Lengthy-COVID signs,” mentioned Lucinda Bateman, MD, Founder and Chief Medical Officer of the Bateman Horne Heart and the research’s principal investigator. “This trial supplies proof that IMC-2 has the potential to enhance fatigue and sleep signs related to Lengthy-COVID sickness on a scale not beforehand noticed in Lengthy-COVID analysis. I imagine this discovering warrants additional investigation of IMC-2 in bigger scale, multi-center Lengthy-COVID research.”
“The first objectives of this trial have been to find out the IMC-2 therapy impact dimension versus placebo and the related affected person pattern dimension to design our deliberate IMC-2 Section 2 Lengthy-COVID research in a way that maximizes likelihood of success,” mentioned R. Michael Gendreau, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Dogwood Therapeutics, Inc. “IMC-2 demonstrated a strong discount in fatigue, the first endpoint agreed with the Meals & Drug Administration to advance IMC-2 into Section 2 growth.
