(NASDAQ: TFFP) (“the Company”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing innovative drug products based on its patented Thin Film Freezing (TFF) technology platform, today provided an update from the Company’s ongoing Phase 2 trial of Tacrolimus Inhalation Powder (TFF TAC) for the prevention of lung transplant rejection.

Key Points: 
  • “I am pleased to report that patient enrollment has accelerated due to positive physician enthusiasm based on emerging data, and we have now enrolled 10 patients in the TFF TAC Phase 2 study,” said Dr. Harlan Weisman, Chief Executive Officer of TFF Pharmaceuticals.
  • “Furthermore, initial PK data from the first patient cohort indicate that dosing with TFF TAC results in less variability in the levels of systemic tacrolimus.
  • By reducing systemic tacrolimus trough and peak concentration swings through more targeted delivery, we believe TFF TAC has the potential to reduce the incidence of acute rejection and kidney toxicity, respectively.
  • In addition, we have received positive feedback on the ease of use of the TFF TAC inhalation device, which is a small portable inhaler that requires no priming or spacer, making it easy for patients to inhale drug and likely leading to improved compliance.”
