Cocrystal Pharma extends Phase 2a flu study due to low infection rate, data uninterpretable
Cocrystal Pharma, Inc.
- No SAEs or drug-related discontinuations in Phase 2a study of oral PB2 inhibitor CC-42344.
- Low infectivity of H3N2 challenge strain made virology data uninterpretable; enrollment to be extended.
- Company plans to submit protocol amendment to UK MHRA to extend enrollment and ensure adequate infection rates.
- CC-42344 showed favorable safety/tolerability, but low infection rate hindered antiviral data analysis.
