Summary

NanoViricides, Inc. reports promising results for its lead drug candidate, NV-387, in treating Measles, showing a significant increase in survival rates in humanized animal studies without toxicity, highlighting its potential as the first therapeutic option for Measles.

What is NV-387?

NV-387 is NanoViricides’ lead drug candidate, a broad-spectrum antiviral drug designed to treat Measles by mimicking human cell features to bind and neutralize viruses.

Why is NV-387’s success significant?

With global Measles cases surging and vaccine coverage declining, NV-387’s success in increasing survival rates in humanized animal studies without toxicity marks a potential first therapeutic option for Measles.

How does NV-387 work?

NV-387 mimics human cell features to bind and neutralize viruses, targeting over 90% of human pathogens, demonstrating dose-dependent efficacy in studies.

Who is involved in the development of NV-387?

NanoViricides, Inc., a clinical-stage developer of broad-spectrum antivirals, is advancing NV-387, with technology licensed from TheraCour Pharma, Inc.

What were the results of the NV-387 study?

In a lethal respiratory infection model using humanized mice, NV-387 increased survival by 130%—from 7.4 to 17 days—with no observed toxicity.

When can NV-387 be available for human use?

NanoViricides is currently focused on advancing NV-387 into Phase II human clinical trials, but an exact date for filing an IND cannot be projected due to dependence on external collaborators.
