AdrenoMed is now preparing a confirmatory Phase IIb/III clinical trial to confirm the reduced septic shock mortality under enibarcimab treatment employing a precision medicine approach.

Key Points: 
  • AdrenoMed is now preparing a confirmatory Phase IIb/III clinical trial to confirm the reduced septic shock mortality under enibarcimab treatment employing a precision medicine approach.
  • AdrenoMed’s CEO Dr. Richard Jones commented: “We are very pleased that enibarcimab has received Fast Track designation from the FDA, recognizing its potential as an innovative biomarker-guided treatment against septic shock to fill the unmet medical need in this very serious condition with a high death toll.
  • With a mortality rate of 20-30% for sepsis [1] and 30%-50% for septic shock in developed countries, [2] sepsis represents an enormous public health burden and is responsible for almost 20% of all deaths worldwide.
  • Dr. Stephan Witte, CMO of AdrenoMed, said: “We are very confident that the use of enibarcimab in combination with two biomarkers, Adrenomedullin (bio-ADM) and circulating dipeptidyl peptidase 3 (cDPP3), holds the promise to become the first effective targeted treatment against septic shock.

Four units at the University Hospital Heidelberg and Heidelberg Kidney Center implement Proenkephalin (penKid) in a pilot biomarker-based treatment approach to diagnose AKI faster and monitor it more accurately across departments.

Key Points: 
  • Four units at the University Hospital Heidelberg and Heidelberg Kidney Center implement Proenkephalin (penKid) in a pilot biomarker-based treatment approach to diagnose AKI faster and monitor it more accurately across departments.
  • PenKid is a proposed biomarker for real-time kidney function that potentially closes on the gaps of the standard diagnostic procedures.
  • This includes the normal, the intermediate care (IMC), the nephrology, and the intensive care units (ICU) of both clinics in Heidelberg.
  • This routine use of penKid on a centralized level in the hospital drives innovation on multiple wards such as nephrology, ICU and IMC.
