Medicilon congratulates - Treatable and Accessible! Adult and adolescent Type A and Type B influenza! AnDiCon Bio's pill cures influenza with the new drug Madoxanavir - Phase III successful research

On April 29th, AnDiCon Bio (AnDiCon) announced that the Phase III clinical trial of the new influenza drug Madoxanavir tablets (ADC189), which cures Type A and Type B influenza in adults and adolescents, has reached its primary endpoint, demonstrating excellent safety and efficacy."

Medicilon, as a partner of AnDiCon, provided formulation research services for the 'pediatric version' of the anti-influenza Class 1 Madoxanavir granules for influenza, assisting in its rapid advancement in preclinical research and development processes. This progress of Madoxanavir tablets not only validates its effectiveness and safety in treating influenza in adults and adolescents, but also indicates its enormous potential in the field of influenza treatment in children.

About AnDiCon Bio

The AnDiCon Bio Innovation Team, led by several academicians, focuses on the fields of respiratory anti-infection and pain. The company has gathered a group of academic professionals and highly efficient and pragmatic senior talents at different stages of new drug development, including innovative drug design and synthesis, DMPK technology research and application, and research and development of high-end formulations suitable for special populations. AnDiCon Bio relies on the company's DMPK platform to establish a new drug R&D system based on metabolic differentiation. In addition to the anti-influenza new drug pipeline ADC189, the company's product pipeline also includes a variety of innovative drugs for respiratory pathogens, such as the anti-respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) drug ADC789 suspension, the novel anti-chlamydia super antibiotic ADC101 suspension, and innovative drugs like ADC308 tablets expected to fill the domestic gap in the treatment of endometriosis and uterine fibroids. In 2022, the company completed a Pre-A round financing of RMB 100 million. In 2023, the company received strategic investment of tens of millions of RMB from Simcere Pharmaceutical (2096.HK). Since 2024, the company has completed a Series A financing of several hundred million RMB. Looking forward, the company hopes to obtain more support and empowerment from investment institutions, accelerate the progress of innovative drug research and development, bring new treatment options to patients as soon as possible, and bring Chinese wisdom and solutions that are "healable" and accessible to China's public health security.

What is preclinical testing?

In the process of preclinical testing of a compound or biological agent into a drug, the compound involved must go through the testing phase. First, we need to identify potential targets that can treat the disease. Then, a variety of compounds or preparations are screened out. Any compound that has shown potential as a drug for the treatment of this disease needs to be tested for toxicity before clinical testing to reduce the possibility of injury. preclinical testing What is the basis of preclinical testing? According to US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, a series of tests are required before a new drug is approved for use. In the first stage, basic research determines a hypothetical target for the treatment of a certain disease, and then screens small molecules or biological compounds to discover any substance with the potential to treat the disease. Then, a preclinical research phase followed, before which, as described above, the potential toxicity of the compou

Inventory of the three major in vitro pharmacokinetic research methods

The metabolic properties of a compound are an essential factor in whether or not it can be used as a drug in the clinical setting, so pharmacokinetic studies of newly synthesized compounds are required in drug development. In vitro incubation with liver microsomes, recombinant CYP450 enzyme lines, and in vitro incubation with hepatocytes are some of the more common in vitro drug metabolism methods. 1. In vitro incubation method with liver microsomes The metabolic stability and metabolic phenotypes of candidate compounds in different species of liver microsomes are good predictors of the metabolic properties of compounds in vivo. They are practical tools for evaluating candidate compounds in the pre-development phase of drug development. Liver microsomes include rat liver microsomes, human liver microsomes, canine liver microsomes, monkey liver microsomes, and mouse liver microsomes. In in vitro incubation of the liver, microsomes are the "gold standard" for in vitro d

Novel Parkinson’s Therapies Possible with New Mouse Model

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that is marked by the accumulation of the protein, α-synuclein (αS), into clumps known as Lewy bodies, which diminish neural health. Now, researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) report the development of a mouse model to induce PD-like αS aggregation, leading to resting tremor and abnormal movement control. The mouse responds to L-DOPA, similarly to patients with PD. The team's study (“Abrogating Native α-Synuclein Tetramers in Mice Causes a L-DOPA-Responsive Motor Syndrome Closely Resembling Parkinson’s Disease”) on the use of this transgenic mouse model appears in Neuron . “α-Synuclein (αS) regulates vesicle exocytosis but forms insoluble deposits in PD. Developing disease-modifying therapies requires animal models that reproduce cardinal features of PD. We recently described a previously unrecognized physiological form of αS, α-helical tetramers, and showed that familial PD-causing missense mutati
