Axcella Announces Presentations at the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) The Liver Meeting
October 01, 2019 04:11 PM Eastern Daylight Time
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Axcella Health Inc. (Nasdaq: AXLA), a biotechnology company pioneering the research and development of novel multifactorial interventions to address dysregulated metabolism and support health, today announced that the company will present two posters for two of its liver health-focused AXA candidates, AXA1665 and AXA1125 at the American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) conference taking place November 8 - 12, 2019 in Boston, MA. The continued selection of abstracts at major international conferences represents Axcella’s progress in developing endogenous metabolic modulators (EMMs).
AXA1665, Axcella’s lead AXA candidate for the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy (HE), currently in a Non-IND, IRB-Approved Clinical Study in subjects with mild-moderate hepatic insufficiency, is a novel composition of endogenous metabolic modulators designed to target multiple metabolic pathways intersecting key organ systems, including liver, muscle and gut that play key roles in liver health. AXA1125, currently in a Non-IND, IRB-Approved Clinical Study in adult subjects with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is a novel composition of EMMs designed to simultaneously support metabolic, inflammatory and fibrotic pathways associated with liver health.
Abstracts to be presented:
Abstract Number/Title: #0432 AXA1665, A defined composition of endogenous metabolic modulators, but not dietary protein improved the dysregulated amino acid metabolism and ammonia disposal in Child-Pugh A and B subjects
Location: Hynes Convention Center, Hall B
Abstract Number/Title: #2134 AXA1125, Mechanistic insights into the multimodal effects of AXA1125 inT2D Subjects with NAFLD
Location: Hynes Convention Center, Hall B
About Endogenous Metabolic Modulators
Endogenous metabolic modulators, or EMMs, are a broad family of molecules, including amino acids, which fundamentally impact and regulate human metabolism. Our AXA Candidates are anchored by EMMs that have a history of safe use as food. We believe that, unlike conventional targeted interventions currently used to address dysregulated metabolism, EMM compositions have the potential to directly and simultaneously support and modulate multiple metabolic pathways implicated both in complex diseases and overall health.
About Non-IND, IRB-Approved Clinical Studies
Axcella conducts non-investigational new drug application (Non-IND), Institutional Review Board (IRB)-approved clinical studies in humans with its AXA Candidates under U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations and guidance supporting research with food outside of an IND. In these studies, Axcella evaluates in humans, including in individuals with disease, AXA Candidates for safety, tolerability and effects on the normal structures and functions of the body. Non-IND, IRB-Approved Clinical Studies are not designed or intended to evaluate an AXA Candidate’s ability to diagnose, cure, mitigate, treat or prevent a disease. If Axcella decides to further develop an AXA Candidate as a potential therapeutic, subsequent studies will be conducted under an IND.
About Axcella Health
Axcella is designing and developing AXA Candidates, compositions of endogenous metabolic modulators, or EMMs, engineered in distinct ratios, designed to target and maximize the fundamental role that EMMs play in regulating multiple metabolic functions. Axcella’s AXA Candidates are generated from its proprietary, human-focused AXA Development Platform. Axcella believes its expertise and capabilities in EMMs position it to become a preeminent biotechnology company reprogramming metabolism to address a diverse set of complex diseases and support health. Axcella’s AXA Development Platform has already produced a pipeline of product candidates in programs targeting liver, muscle and blood. Axcella was founded by Flagship Pioneering.
