Azitra Highlights Preclinical Results and P-Ib Clinical Design of ATR-12 for Netherton Syndrome at the ASGCT 2024
Shots:
- The in vitro data showed LEKTI protein secretion & KLK5 protease inhibition (IC50=26 nM) with ATR-12, human ex vivo Netherton syndrome models showed nearly 7-fold reduced protease activity & ex vivo human skin models showed increased LEKTI delivery to skin vs topical LEKTI alone (6.1µg/cm2 vs 2.3µg/cm2) post 24hrs. with deeper biodistribution. It reduced IL-36γ by 92% in human skin cell culture & by 69% in in vitro human skin treated with erlotinib
- The abraded skin study in minipigs showed 11.9ng/cm2 LEKTI on skin surface vs 2.6 ng/cm2 in the vehicle group at D14 & a safe & well-tolerated profile in GLP toxicology studies
- Furthermore, the planned P-Ib vehicle-controlled trial aims to assess the safety, efficacy, PK/PD & tolerability of ATR-12 (109 CFU/g, BID, 14 days) topical application in Netherton syndrome adults (n=12)
