ANI Pharmaceuticals Inc

Ionis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ions#NASDAQ">IONS</a>) announced that the FDA has granted a Fast Track designation to its investigational RNA-targeted therapy zilganersen for treating Alexander disease (AxD), an ultra-rare neurological disorder.
The Fast Track designation from the FDA facilitates rapid development and expedites the review of drug candidates to treat serious conditions for which clinical data demonstrate the potential to address unmet medical needs. The goal is to make these treatments rapidly available to patients in need.
AxD is a rare neurological disease that affects a type of cell in the brain called astrocytes, which has multiple roles in the brain to support neurons and oligodendrocytes. People living with this condition experience cognitive dysfunction and progressive neurologic deterioration, including swallowing and the ability to control muscles for large movements. Per Ionis, zilganersen is the first investigational medicine in clinical development for treating AxD. There are currently no approved therapies for AxD patients.
The FDA had previously granted Orphan Drug designation and Rare Pediatric Disease designation to zilganersen for treating AxD.
Shares of Ionis have declined 22.8% so far this year compared with the industry&#39;s 1.3% fall.

<h2>Recent Updates on IONS&#39; Zilganersen</h2>
Zilganersen is currently being evaluated in late-stage studies for treating adults and children living with AxD.
The company completed full patient enrollment in a pivotal phase III study on zilganersen for treating AxD in July. Top-line data from the same is expected in the second half of 2025.
The primary endpoint of the study is to check the percent change from baseline in gait speed as assessed by the 10-Meter Walk Test (10MWT) at the end of the 60-week treatment period.
Zilganersen is one of Ionis&#39; wholly-owned pipeline candidates. The company intends to launch it independently in the United States.
<h2>IONS&#39; Promising Wholly Owned Pipeline</h2>
Ionis has collaborations with leading drugmakers/biotech companies that provide it with funds in the form of license fees, upfront payments and milestone payments to invest in its internal pipeline development.
Besides zilganersen, some of its wholly-owned candidates include olezarsen for familial chylomicronemia syndrome&nbsp;and severe hypertriglyceridemia, donidalorsen for hereditary angioedema and ulefnersen for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which is in phase III study.
In April 2024, Ionis filed a new drug application (NDA) with the FDA seeking approval for olezarsen in the FCS indication. A decision from the regulatory body is due on Dec. 19, 2024.
If approved, olezarsen will be Ionis&#39; first medicine to be launched independently.
Also, Ionis is making preparations to file an NDA for donidalorsen with the FDA later in 2024. The company expects donidalorsen to be its second independent commercial launch upon potential approval.

Shares of Biohaven Ltd. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bhvn#NYSE">BHVN</a>) were up 13.7% on Sept. 23 after the company announced positive top-line data from the pivotal BHV4157-206-RWE study, which evaluated its pipeline candidate, troriluzole, for the treatment of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), a rare and debilitating neurodegenerative disease.
Currently, there are no FDA-approved therapy for the given indication.
The study showed the efficacy of troriluzole on the mean change from baseline in the modified functional Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (f-SARA) following three years of treatment.
Year to date, shares of Biohaven have gained 7.4% with no change for the industry.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/ee/78970.jpg?v=729085404" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
<h2>BHVN&#39;s Pivotal BHV4157-206-RWE Study Data</h2>
The study met the primary endpoint on the change from baseline in the f-SARA at three years in all study population genotypes following treatment with troriluzole (200 mg) in SCA patients.
Also, treatment with troriluzole led to statistically significant improvements in the f-SARA at years one and two. Data collected from multiple analyses showed a robust and clinically meaningful slowing of disease progression in SCA patients.
Importantly, treatment with troriluzole slowed disease progression by 50% to 70%, representing a 1.5-2.2 years delay in disease progression over three years compared to untreated patients.
Treatment with troriluzole demonstrated statistically significant superiority on nine consecutive, prespecified primary and secondary endpoints of the study.
Per management, troriluzole is the first treatment to show a delay in disease progression for SCA patients.
<h2>BHVN&#39;s Upcoming Plans for Troriluzole</h2>
Based on the positive data from the BHV4157-206-RWE study, along with previous safety and efficacy data, BHVN plans to submit a new drug application (NDA) for troriluzole in SCA with the FDA in the fourth quarter of 2024.
If approved, the company plans to launch troriluzole in the United States in 2025.
The FDA has granted Fast-Track and orphan drug designation to troriluzole for treating SCA. The European Medicines Agency has also granted orphan drug designation to troriluzole for treating SCA.
As a result of the orphan drug and fast-track designations granted by the FDA, the NDA for troriluzole is eligible for a priority review.
Troriluzole is also being evaluated in two late-stage studies for treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Interim analysis of the second phase III OCD study is expected later in 2024, while top-line data from the first phase III OCD study is anticipated in the first half of 2025.

Lisata Therapeutics, Inc.&#39;s (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lsta#NASDAQ">LSTA</a>) lead pipeline candidate is certepetide (formerly known as LSTA1), which is being developed for treating a range of solid tumors.
Earlier this month, the company announced upbeat data from a preclinical study evaluating certepetide for treating intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, an aggressive form of cancer, with a poor prognosis.
Data from the study showed that treatment with certepetide combined with standard-of-care (SoC) chemotherapy and immunotherapy improved survival in mice with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
Certepetide is an investigational drug candidate that allows co-administered or tethered anti-cancer drugs to better penetrate solid tumors by activating a novel uptake pathway. The candidate has exhibited the potential to improve the tumor environment, thereby making tumors more responsive to immunotherapy.
Notably, the phase IIa BOLSTER study is currently investigating certepetide in combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy as a first-line treatment for cholangiocarcinoma.
The positive preclinical data underlines the potential of certepetide in treating human patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
As a result, LSTA is now looking to add another arm to the BOLSTER study, which will evaluate certepetide in combination with SoC chemoimmunotherapy for treating intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
Shares of LSTA have rallied 33.7% year to date (YTD) against the industry&#39;s decline of 2.7%.
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/77/71467.jpg?v=633149196" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
Certepetide is currently being evaluated as a combination therapy with various anti-cancer regimens in several early-to-mid-stage studies for treating multiple cancer indications, including metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
The FDA granted an Orphan Drug designation to certepetide for treating osteosarcoma, a rare type of bone cancer, in April. The FDA also granted a Rare Pediatric Disease Designation to certepetide for treating osteosarcoma in March.
The FDA has previously granted Orphan Drug designation to certepetide for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The regulatory body has also granted a Fast Track designation to certepetide for pancreatic cancer.
Certepetide is also being studied for other forms of cancers, including pancreatic, esophageal, head and neck, appendiceal and colon cancers, as well as GBM.
Several clinical data readouts from various studies on certepetide are expected during the upcoming months, which, if successful, can significantly boost the company&#39;s growth prospect.
Progress with the ongoing studies and successful development of certepetide should continue the upward momentum for Lisata for the remainder of 2024.
