USA-based Nventa Pharmaceuticals has announced positive safety and tolerability results in the final cohort of its Phase I trials for lead candidate HspE7, indicated to treat cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
In total, four cohorts were administered escalating doses of adjuvant and the candidate was well tolerated in each. Additionally, the treatment showed a promising immune response, boding well for the potential application of the compound.
HspE7 is a novel therapeutic candidate for the treatment of precancerous and cancerous lesions caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). The firm believes the product can treat CIN by enhancing the body's natural immune system. It is currently being evaluated to treat other HPV-associated cancers.
