NetworkNewsBreaks – NanoViricides (NYSE American: NNVC) Receives DRC Approval to Advance Proposed Phase II Ebola Trial
NanoViricides, Inc. (NYSE American: NNVC) announced that the Pillar Committee in Charge in the Democratic Republic of Congo has approved the company’s proposal to conduct a Phase II clinical trial evaluating NV-387 Oral Gummies as a treatment for the current Bundibugyo ebolavirus outbreak. The company said NV-387 is a broad-spectrum antiviral designed to target host-cell features required by viruses and is the only orally administered Ebola treatment candidate currently under consideration for clinical testing, to its knowledge.
NanoViricides said the next steps include obtaining approvals from the DRC National Ethics Committee and regulatory agency ACOREP before initiating the study. The company noted that NV-387 Oral Gummies have already received authorization in the DRC for a Phase II mpox trial and are ready for shipment. Management believes the oral formulation could offer significant advantages in resource-limited outbreak settings, where intravenous treatments can be difficult to deploy and scale.
