Post# of 110
Clene (NASDAQ: CLNN) and its wholly owned subsidiary Clene Nanomedicine Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on improving mitochondrial health and protecting neuronal function to treat neurodegenerative diseases, recently reported new results from a long-term open-label extension (“LTE”) of the VISIONARY-MS trial in participants with stable relapsing multiple sclerosis (“RMS”) totaling nearly three years of follow up. Data from the study show clear overall improvements in vision and cognition for participants treated for nearly three years from randomization, with these results robust and consistent, according to Professor Michael Barnett, Professor of Neurology, Brain and Mind Centre, University of Sydney, and one of the trial’s key clinical advisors. “Clene is closely studying CNM-Au8(R) because a drug that may halt MS disease progression and may even improve function on top of standard-of-care MS therapies would represent a milestone achievement in drug development for this disease,” a recent article reads. “These data continue to build a strong case in favor of pursuing CNM-Au8 in upcoming Phase 3 studies. Clinically significant improvement is rarely seen in MS patients, and this trial provides evidence of CNM-Au8’s potential to improve function in this population,” Dr. Benjamin Greenberg, M.D., Head of Medicine at Clene, is quoted as saying.
