RDHL reported data from the study
On Monday, RDHL reported new data from opaganib global Phase 2/3 study. The study was carried out in hospitalized patients with severe Covid-19. The study showed that the treatment with oral opaganib (ABC294640) as compared to placebo-controlled arm caused a reduction of 62% in mortality. Besides that, there was a significant improvement in time to room air and median time to hospital discharge in a group of 251 hospitalized. They were all moderately severe Covid-19 patients and comprised 53% of 475 study participants. The company said that the results were from a post-hoc analysis of data from 251 of the study participants; it required a fraction of inspired Oxygen up to 60% at the baseline. The patients having a fraction of inspired oxygen less than or equal to 60% were considered to be severely affected. They required oxygen supplementation. Mark L. Levitt, MD, PhD, Medical Director at RedHill, said that the findings support the potential for opaganib’s use in hospitalized, moderately severe COVID-19 patients.
