LISCure Gets Clearance to Start Phase 2 Trial for LB-P8

LISCure Biosciences Announces FDA Clearance of IND Application to Initiate a Phase 2 Study of LB-P8 for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis (PSC)

Overview

Represents first ever live biotherapeutic product to receive IND clearance for PSC
Phase 2 clinical trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy, including clinical endpoints of LB-P8 LISCure Biosciences a leading clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing innovative microbiome-based therapies, announces the clearance of its Investigational New Drug (IND) application by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for LB-P8, a live biotherapeutic product (LBP) intended to treat primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). LISCure anticipates treating the first patient in the upcoming months and expects topline results for Part 1 in the first half of 2025.

About PSC

• PSC is a rare, chronic, cholestatic liver disease with very high unmet medical needs where there are no approved drugs. 
• PSC can benefit from microbiome drugs because PSC is linked to the ""gut-liver"" axis and is strongly associated with total gastrointestinal risk and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). 
• LB-P8, designed to treat inflammation and fibrosis and to modulate bile acids, is expected to perform significantly well in clinical trials and hold a high position of success rate in drug development.

Safety Confirmation

LISCure confirmed the safety, tolerability, and key biomarkers of LB-P8 in a Phase 1 study and received Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) for the treatment of PSC from the U.S. FDA. LB-P8 was presented in oral presentations at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) every year for the past two years.

Words from LISCure

""LB-P8 is receiving considerable attention from patient advocacy, physicians, companies, and other stakeholders. To meet their expectations, we will expedite development and offer new treatment opportunities to patients expeditiously."
