SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Dec. 14, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aligos Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALGS), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel therapeutics to address unmet medical needs in viral and liver diseases, reported today that dosing with ALG-125755, a small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting the production of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), was initiated in subjects with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in Study ALG-125755-501 (NCT05561530).
“siRNA drugs targeting HBsAg production have generally been well tolerated and have consistently lowered HBsAg levels, demonstrating the potential to become a cornerstone therapy to achieve functional cure in CHB,” said Lawrence Blatt, Ph.D., MBA, CEO and Chairman of the Board at Aligos. “The team has made excellent progress over the past two months advancing ALG-125755 through the single ascending dose (SAD) portion of the study in healthy volunteers, where doses up to 100 mg have been evaluated. This has enabled us to advance into CHB subjects ahead of schedule. We plan to evaluate additional CHB cohorts receiving single or multiple doses of ALG-125755 throughout the coming year to identify a dose regimen to advance into combination studies. Additionally, we plan to share available study data in healthy volunteers and CHB subjects at scientific conferences throughout 2023.” |
