Rezolute Reports Validation of the Potential Use of RZ358 for Treatment of Non-Islet Cell Tumor Hypoglycemia (NICTH)

水曜日, 3月 6, 2024

Tumor hyperinsulinism (HI) may be caused by a variety of different tumor types, resulting in islet cell tumor hypoglycemia (ICTH) and NICTH.

Key Points: 
  • Tumor hyperinsulinism (HI) may be caused by a variety of different tumor types, resulting in islet cell tumor hypoglycemia (ICTH) and NICTH.
  • The Company previously reported on the successful use of RZ358 under its Expanded Access Program (EAP) to treat patients with insulin-producing pancreatic islet cell tumors (ICTs), or insulinomas, causing severe and uncontrolled hypoglycemia.
  • The therapeutic potential of RZ358 in this setting was anticipated given that ICTH is mediated by insulin and that RZ358 is known to work at the insulin receptor to decrease excess insulin binding and activity.
  • The inclusion of NICTH patients in a potential addressable market for RZ358 in tumor HI would more than double the population.
