Clene’s CNM-Au8 is an oral suspension of gold nanocrystals designed to improve cellular energy production and utilization, which is critical for maintaining neuronal health. The drug candidate has been shown to improve central nervous system cells’ survival and function via a mechanism that targets mitochondrial function and the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (“NAD”) pathway while reducing oxidative stress. By targeting mitochondrial dysfunction, CNM-Au8 can provide neuroprotection and promote remyelination, potentially altering the course of neurodegenerative conditions.
Following encouraging clinical trial results, Clene is seeking to bring CNM-Au8 to market as soon as possible. In two Phase 2 clinical trials, RESCUE-ALS and HEALEY ALS Platform Trials, participants who were administered CNM-Au8 saw significant improvement in survival rates, delayed clinical worsening, and improvements in a combined assessment of function and survival. The company is now organizing a confirmatory Phase 3 trial (“RESTORE-ALS”) to evaluate the survival benefit of CNM-Au8, while preparing for a potential accelerated approval pathway for the drug candidate as per the additional written guidance received from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in late 2024.
Clene is preparing a New Drug Application (“NDA”) to submit to the FDA in the second half of 2025 to secure accelerated approval for CNM-Au8 for ALS. Clene is currently conducting further analyses recommended by the FDA regarding neurofilament light chain (“NfL”) data, a key biomarker for ALS, in its NIH-sponsored Expanded Access Program (“EAP”). To strengthen this analysis, the company signed an agreement with APST Research GmbH (“APST”) to leverage its extensive dataset to compare NfL levels in NIH-sponsored EAP participants treated with CNM-Au8 against matched historical ALS controls. The goal is to determine if CNM-Au8 treatment reduces NfL decline, and to demonstrate that the rate of NfL change is associated with survival in the NIH-sponsored EAP ALS population.
