The results from these in vitro studies subsequently informed the design of a Phase 1 drug-drug interaction study in 24 healthy volunteers.

Key Points: 
  • The results from these in vitro studies subsequently informed the design of a Phase 1 drug-drug interaction study in 24 healthy volunteers.
  • “Opelconazole was specifically designed to be administered via inhalation in order to achieve high lung concentrations and low systemic uptake.
  • These low systemic levels, now observed in multiple clinical trials and in the UK Special Needs provision, have been estimated to be too low to have an inhibition or induction of a drug-drug interaction effect.
  • We are encouraged that these clinical trial results confirm this low potential for Cytochrome P450 drug-drug interactions for opelconazole.”

The cell clone used to produce the CypCaps product has been augmented to produce the cytochrome P450 enzyme.

Key Points: 
  • The cell clone used to produce the CypCaps product has been augmented to produce the cytochrome P450 enzyme.
  • The FDA has now asked PharmaCyte to provide the exact DNA sequence and configuration of the genetic augmentation responsible for the production of cytochrome P450 in the cells.
  • This requires additional studies that necessitates a multi-prong approach, including the employment of a new, state of the art, technique.
  • Thus, these new studies will add to the data that PharmaCyte already has on the long-term stability and shelf life of the final CypCaps product.
