Archimedes announces positive Ph I results for T3 heart candidate

15 June 2008

UK drug development firm Archimedes and USA-based T3 therapeutics have released positive Phase I study data of their oral formulation of T3 (lithyronine sodium).

The open-label, single-dose, randomized, crossover, pharmacokinetic, proof-of-concept trial evaluated the bioavailability of oral modified T3 versus immediate-release T3. The candidate exhibited lowered Cmax and prolonged Tmax compared to the existing formulation. The firm claims this shows the drug has great potential in treating hypothyroidism and is expanding its indication to congestive heart failure.
