BioVie Inc. (NASDAQ: BIVI) presented clinical data on bezisterim at the 11th Aging Research and Drug Discovery Meeting, revealing its potential to modulate inflammation and the biological aging process. Key findings include:
1. Patients treated with bezisterim experienced a 2-4 year age deceleration advantage compared to placebo.
2. Bezisterim modulated DNA methylation of proinflammatory genes and appeared to promote the transition of M1 proinflammatory to M2 anti-inflammatory macrophages.
3. The drug was associated with a 1.5 to 2.3 'fold enrichment' on gene control for hundreds of genes in pathways linked to neurodegenerative disorders and biological processes.
These results suggest bezisterim's potential to impact various age-related diseases and inflammation-related conditions.
