Exenatide Once Weekly in the Treatment of Patients with Multiple System Atrophy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Exenatide, a glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonist, has neuroprotective effects in preclinical models of multiple system atrophy (MSA). We investigated these effects in a proof‐of‐concept clinical trial. Methods In this single‐center, randomized, open label trial, participants with MSA were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive ...

Adverse immunostimulation in early phase clinical trials: Key findings and recommendations based on the investigator's clinical experience

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Problem setting The emergence of therapeutic proteins has coincided with an increase of acute adverse immunostimulation (AIS). AIS has occured in clinical trials despite compliance with regulatory guidelines on preclinical evaluation and its incidence is anticipated to increase even further.

Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Multiple Ascending Doses and Dose Titration of Bexicaserin in Healthy Participants in a Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Study

Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development, EarlyView.
Abstract Bexicaserin (LP352) is a selective superagonist of the 5‐hydroxytryptamine 2C (5‐HT2C) receptor currently in development for the treatment of seizures that arise from developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. This phase 1, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled multiple ascending dose (MAD) study assessed the safety, tolerability, and ...
