PA-KNOPP-BIOSCIENCES-LLC
Knopp Biosciences LLC today announced it will present detailed results of its positive Phase 2 dose-ranging EXHALE trial of the novel oral eosinophil-lowering drug dexpramipexole in patients with moderate-to-severe asthma in a virtual poster session at the ATS 2021 International Conference.
“We look forward to sharing comprehensive results of the EXHALE trial, which underscore the readiness of dexpramipexole for further development in eosinophilic asthma,” said Michael Bozik, M.D., president and CEO of Knopp. “Monoclonal antibody treatments approved for asthma demonstrate that reduction in eosinophils is associated with significantly improved outcomes, but the need remains for an oral alternative in the eosinophilic asthma treatment paradigm.”

ABOUT DEXPRAMIPEXOLE
Dexpramipexole, a selective inhibitor of eosinophil maturation, is an oral small molecule drug in development by Knopp for asthma and other eosinophil-associated diseases. In hypereosinophilic syndrome, dexpramipexole has previously been shown in a Phase 2 trial to significantly reduce requirements for oral corticosteroids and in a subset of patients to produce durable disease remission. In its earlier development in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, dexpramipexole was shown to be well tolerated in Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 trials comprising approximately 1,200 patients.
