(NASDAQ: LEXX) Receives Approval to Commence Human Pilot Study Evaluating GLP-1, DehydraTECH By: Investor Brand Network April 16, 2024 at 15:45 PM EDT Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, has received approval to begin a new human pilot study. The approval, which was granted by an independent third-party ethics review board, enables Lexaria to move forward with its plan to conduct a GLP-1 study investigating GLP-1 drugs and DehydraTECH(TM). According to the announcement, subject recruitment will begin immediately with the first dosing expected within the next month; the company plans to complete the study this summer. The study will be comprised of two study arms and will include up to nine healthy volunteers. The study is designed to compare a single 7 mg dose of Rybelsus(R) (semaglutide) against two different, concentration-matched 7 mg DehydraTECH-enabled semaglutide formulations from crushed Rybelsus. “I am excited about this study,” said Lexaria CEO Chris Bunka in the press release. “The Lexaria scientific team believes that a dissolvable oral tablet that delivers an effective fraction of semaglutide along with reduced side effects could potentially offer valuable benefits to the pharmaceutical industry that might lead to a higher likelihood of favorable strategic partnering with leading industry players in GLP-1. Most GLP-1 drugs sold today are administered by painful and expensive injection devices. More effective and tolerable oral delivery of GLP-1 drugs could be extremely valuable to patients and to industry.” To view the full press release, visit https://ibn.fm/dRnIK About Lexaria Bioscience Corp. Lexaria Bioscience’s patented drug-delivery formulation and processing platform technology, DehydraTECH(TM), improves the way active pharmaceutical ingredients (“APIs”) enter the bloodstream through oral delivery. Since 2016, Lexaria has developed and investigated DehydraTECH with a variety of beneficial molecules in oral and topical formats. DehydraTECH has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to increase bioabsorption and has also evidenced an ability to deliver some drugs more effectively across the blood brain barrier, which Lexaria believes to be of particular importance for centrally active compounds. Lexaria operates a licensed, in-house research laboratory and holds a robust intellectual property portfolio with 41 patents granted and many patents pending worldwide.
