$INNV nnovus Pharma Announces Initiation of a Clinical Study to Evaluate the Tolerance and the Effect of Musclin™ on Muscle Health in Adults in the United StatesPress Release | 12/10/2018
Innovus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Innovus Pharma” or the “Company”) (OTCQB Venture Market: INNV), an emerging commercial-stage pharmaceutical company that delivers safe, innovative and effective over-the-counter medicine and consumer care products to improve men’s and women's health and respiratory diseases, today announced the enrollment of the first participant in the clinical study to evaluate the effect and tolerance of Musclin™ dietary supplement. The study is being conducted at a single site in the United States and is expected to enroll up to 20 healthy subjects.
The study is designed as an open-label, uncontrolled, ascending dose study. Eligible participants will receive a daily dose of two capsules of Musclin™, containing thymol as a dietary supplement, for thirty days followed by an increase to four capsules of Musclin™ for an additional thirty days. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate the tolerance of individuals to Musclin™ over the course of the study period. In addition to evaluating tolerability of Musclin™, the study will observe the effect of Musclin™ in the measurements of creatinine kinase and myostatin levels which are signs of muscle breakdown, as well as additional assessments including self-reported changes in energy and stamina levels. Data from this trial is expected in the first half of 2019 following full enrollment and after all participants have completed their last dose.
“This study represents part of Innovus Pharma's strategy to leverage cutting-edge technologies that have been developed by pioneers in the field of muscle health and introduce clinically-tested and proven products to consumers,” said Bassam Damaj, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Innovus Pharma. “As a result of its unique mechanism of action on muscle fibers, we believe Musclin™ is one of the few products targeting the muscle fibers specifically and not the whole body protein synthesis pathways. We are hoping results from this study and potentially others to come will help to support individuals who want to maintain optimal muscle health as they age or suffer from muscle weaknesses,” he continued.
About Musclin™
Musclin™ is a patent-pending dietary supplement containing thymol and BioPerine® intended to support muscle mass, muscle recovery time, and enhance endurance levels in adults.
Thymol, a phenol obtained from thyme oil, is generally recognized by the FDA to be a safe (“GRAS”) food ingredient and food additive shown to increase the size of muscle fibers. In vivo, results have suggested thymol improves exercise capacity and supports increased muscle mass. BioPerine® is a clinically studied, patented extract obtained from black pepper fruits (piper nigrum) used as a bioavailability enhancer in dietary supplements and recognized as GRAS by an independent expert panel. BioPerine® is also commercially available as a stand-alone dietary supplement.
