PainReform Advances Pain Relief Solution, PRF-110, in Phase 3 Trial to Combat Opioid Crisis

PainReform Ltd

PainReform CEO Ilan Hadar joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company at the forefront of addressing the opioid crisis in the United States, is developing PRF-110, an innovative post-operative pain treatment designed as an alternative to traditional opioids. PRF-110 is applied directly by surgeons during procedures, offering patients up to 72 hours of continuous pain relief, potentially eliminating the need for additional pain medications post-surgery. The company is currently advancing a Phase III study in Texas to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of PRF-110. The study, which began in October 2023, has already seen significant progress with more than 50% of the target 400 patients enrolled. Completion of patient enrollment is expected by mid-year, and the study results are anticipated in the third quarter of the same year. A successful outcome from this study could pave the way for another Phase III trial focusing on soft tissue applications, slated to start in early 2025, with results expected by 2026. Should the upcoming trials confirm PRF-110’s efficacy and safety, PainReform plans to submit a New Drug Application in 2026. The company recognizes the significant market potential for non-opioid post-operative pain treatments, an area currently underexplored, and is positioning PRF-110 as a key player in transforming pain management practices post-surgery.

Shedding Light on Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month

YourUpdateTV

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rare, progressive, and genetic disease that currently affects about 40,000 people in the United States. CF is the result of a defective gene, inherited from each parent, and the disease can impact people of all races and ethnicities. Recently, KC White, Board Chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the disease, her personal journey, and how the Foundation is helping progress care and treatment options. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/8wj8u0JEqLU CF is a life-shortening disease that prevents our bodies from clearing mucus. This can lead to lung infections, poor nutrition, lung disease, and a host of unique challenges that can impact every aspect of a person’s life. When it was first discovered, it was considered a fatal pediatric disease. But due to transformative advancements in treatments and high-quality care, the life-expectancy for someone born with CF today is 56. While that number is climbing there is still a long way to go and unfortunately, not all people with CF equally benefit from this progress. KC White was elected chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Board of Trustees in 2022 after serving on the Board since 2005. Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at age 3, White has been a committed volunteer and inspiring advocate for the Foundation since childhood and is the first person with CF to serve as board chair. When she was diagnosed, she wasn’t expected to live past high school age, but her family refused to accept that fate, which prompted their dedication to the Foundation’s work. Because of recent treatments known as modulators, about 90% of the CF population (including KC) experienced an incredible transformation in their health. With this though, comes navigating unplanned challenges including careers, finances, family, and more. In addition to fueling the research, particularly in genetic therapies, that will lead to transformative treatments for the entire CF population, the CF Foundation works to support the CF community in all aspects of their lives through support programs and fostering connection opportunities. Every May, the cystic fibrosis community comes together for CF Awareness Month to educate the public about the rare disease, share personal stories, and encourage people to get involved and unite behind a shared mission: finding a cure for all people with CF. The CF Foundation is committed to finding a cure and providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives. The Foundation is aggressively funding research and drug development, advancing high-quality, specialized care, and partnering with and advocating for the CF community. For more information, visit CFF.ORG/CFMONTH About KC White KC White was elected chair of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation’s Board of Trustees in 2022 after serving on the Board since 2005. Diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at age 3, White has been a committed volunteer and inspiring advocate for the Foundation since childhood, speaking at her first Foundation event when she was only 9 years old. She is the first person with CF to serve as board chair. White received her Master of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2022 and currently serves as an assistant instructor in the program. She is also the Head Varsity Women’s Lacrosse coach for the Chagrin Falls, Ohio, Tigers. She and her husband, Justin, have one son, Mac. About the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a donor-supported nonprofit organization leading the relentless pursuit of a cure for cystic fibrosis. The Foundation is committed to providing all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives by funding research and drug development, advancing high-quality, specialized care, and partnering with and advocating for the CF community. The Foundation funds more CF research than any other organization, and nearly every CF drug available today was made possible because of Foundation support. The organization supports and accredits a national network of over 130 CF care centers recognized by the National Institutes of Health as a model of care for a chronic disease. Also, the Foundation manages support programs and fosters connection opportunities for the CF community. Based in Bethesda, Md., the Foundation’s impact is made possible by the work of nearly 70 local chapters across the country. Contact Details YourUpdateTV +1 212-736-2727 yourupdatetv@gmail.com

Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals outlines significant progress with HEMO-CAR-T in 2023

HemoGenyx Pharmaceuticals

Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals PLC CEO Dr Vladislav Sandler tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that 2023 was a significant year for the company, marked by notable progress with its HEMO-CAR-T product candidate. The key achievement for the year was the submission of a new Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to commence a phase one clinical trial for the treatment of relapsed refractory acute myeloid leukemia. However, the process faced a setback due to issues with lentivirus purity, resulting in a clinical hold. After re-manufacturing the lentivirus, Hemogenyx successfully addressed the FDA's concerns and received approval to proceed with the clinical trials. Furthermore, Sandler reported a successful fundraising which will support the upcoming clinical studies. The company also entered a service agreement with Prevail Infoworks for the clinical trials. In addition to its advancements in HEMO-CAR-T, Hemogenyx continued developing other programs, such as its proprietary Chimeric Bait Receptor (CBR) platform, showing promise in treating non-Hodgkin lymphoma and exploring applications in solid rare tumors. For 2024, the primary focus remains on advancing these clinical trials, particularly the phase one studies, with an immediate goal to initiate patient treatment.
