SR-02 is the first reprogrammed stem cell-derived pancreatic product candidate allowed by FDA for testing in humans as a potential functional cure for insulin-requiring diabetes.

Arthrosi Therapeutics and ApicHope Pharmaceutical Co-developed Gout Treatment AR882 Achieves Promising Phase II Clinical Results in China and Granted Fast Track Designation by the FDA
According to ApicHope Pharmaceutical, Arthrosi Therapeutics, Inc. ("Arthrosi"), a portfolio company incubated by Viva Biotech, has achieved outstanding results in a Phase II clinical trial for the investigational gout treatment AR882. Developed in collaboration with ApicHope Pharmaceutical, this Class I novel drug showed promising outcomes for treating primary gout with hyperuricemia and has now entered Phase II clinical trials in China.

The Phase II clinical trial primarily aimed to explore the optimal dosing of AR882 capsules for treating primary gout with hyperuricemia and to preliminarily assess the drug's efficacy and safety. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients with serum uric acid levels below 360 μmol/L after eight weeks of treatment. By week six, AR882 demonstrated significant efficacy, with the 75mg dose of AR882 showing superiority over Febuxostat (P<0.001). AR882 exhibited an excellent safety profile, with no severe adverse events reported. Mild to moderate side effects observed included diarrhea, headache, and upper respiratory infections. Importantly, AR882 did not interfere with the management of patients' comorbidities, which remained stable throughout the trial.

On August 19, Arthrosi Therapeutics announced that it received FDA Fast Track Designation for AR882 in Tophaceous Gout.

Antag Therapeutics Announces FDA Clearance of Investigational New Drug (IND) Application for Lead Molecule, AT-7687
