RedHill Announces New U.S. Coronavirus Patent for Opaganib, Valid Through 2041
New U.S. patent issued covering the identification of a novel biomarker of coronavirus pneumonia (≤60% fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2)) prognostic for potential opaganib efficacy in treating COVID-19, valid through 204

Published post-hoc data from opaganib's Phase2/3 study showed that patients with ≤60% FiO2 levels had better outcomes after 14 days' opaganib treatment (n=117) compared to placebo (n=134), including: increased number of patients no longer requiring supplemental oxygen by day 14 of opaganib treatment (76.9% vs. 63.4%; p-value =0.033), a 62.6% reduction in intubation/mechanical ventilation (6.84% vs. 17.91%; p-value=0.012) and a clinically meaningful 62% reduction in mortality (5.98% vs. 16.7%; p-value=0.019) by day 42[1]

With multiple U.S. government collaborations for medical countermeasure and pandemic preparedness, opaganib is a novel, host-directed, potentially broad acting, orally administered small molecule drug with demonstrated safety & efficacy profiles, being developed for various oncology, viral infections, inflammatory diseases and nuclear/radioprotection indications
