SPI Pharma is a New Castle, DE-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Tobira Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing cenicriviroc (CVC), an oral potent dual inhibitor of chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR5. Tobira is initiating a Phase 2 clinical trial of cenicriviroc for the treatment of Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH), a leading cause of cirrhosis and liver transplant. The company has also completed a Phase 2b clinical trial of cenicriviroc in 143 HIV-infected subjects, and the compound is positioned for Phase 3 studies as a novel, once daily, fixed-dose cenicriviroc/lamivudine backbone as part of combination HIV therapy. Tobira is backed by a syndicate of leading life science investors including Domain Associates, Frazier Healthcare Ventures, Montreux Equity Partners, Novo Ventures and Canaan Partners.
HealthChem Contract Services is a San Francisco, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Madrigal Pharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pursuing novel therapeutics that target a specific thyroid hormone receptor pathway in the liver, which is a key regulatory mechanism common to a spectrum of cardio-metabolic and fatty liver diseases with high unmet medical need. The Company has advanced its lead candidate, resmetirom, also known as MGL-3196, a first-in-class, orally administered, small-molecule, liver-directed, thyroid hormone receptor (THR) β-selective agonist, through Phase 2 clinical trials in NASH. Primary and key secondary endpoints were achieved including reduction of liver fat on a sensitive non-invasive imaging test, lowering of multiple atherogenic lipids including LDL-cholesterol and triglycerides, and resolution of NASH on liver biopsy. Based on evidence of broad activity and a favorable safety profile, Madrigal has initiated a Phase 3 clinical study in NASH patients with advanced liver fibrosis, MAESTRO-NASH, in which the primary endpoint after one year of dosing is resolution of NASH and key secondary endpoints include LDL-cholesterol lowering and reduction in liver fibrosis. Clinical benefit in reducing progression to more advanced liver disease, including cirrhosis, is a long-term goal of this trial. A second Phase 3 clinical study, MAESTRO-NAFLD-1, has also been initiated. This 52-week non-invasive study in a broader segment of NASH patients will provide additional safety information to support the NASH indication and will include key efficacy endpoints: LDL-cholesterol lowering, triglyceride lowering, reduction of liver fat as determined by MRI-PDFF, as well as reduction of elevated liver enzymes and reduction in fibrosis biomarkers. This is a non-biopsy study in people with NASH, as documented using non-invasive techniques or historical liver biopsy.
