Frequently asked questions about Ozarelix

What is Ozarelix used for?

Ozarelix is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of prostate cancer and benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH), a condition involving enlargement of the prostate. It is in Phase 2 clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What does Ozarelix target?

Ozarelix is a small molecule that targets the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) receptor, also known as the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor. By acting on this target, it is intended to modulate hormone signaling relevant to prostate conditions.

Who is developing Ozarelix?

Ozarelix is being developed by Assertio Holdings, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company. The company's stock is traded under the ticker symbol ASRT on the NASDAQ exchange.

What phase is Ozarelix in?

Ozarelix is currently in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed two Phase 2 trials, one in benign prostatic hypertrophy and one in prostate cancer. It is not yet approved and remains an investigational drug.

What clinical trials is Ozarelix in?

Ozarelix has been studied in two completed Phase 2 trials. NCT00427219 evaluated its safety and efficacy in 74 men with benign prostatic hypertrophy. NCT01252693 assessed a monthly dosing regimen versus goserelin depot in 203 men with prostate cancer.

Is Ozarelix the same as goserelin?

No, Ozarelix is not the same as goserelin. In a clinical trial, Ozarelix was compared against goserelin depot, which is a different drug used as an active comparator in men with prostate cancer. Ozarelix is a distinct investigational compound.
