Frequently asked questions about CDI-988

What is CDI-988 used for?

CDI-988 is an investigational small molecule being developed by Cocrystal Pharma, Inc. (NASDAQ: COCP) for the prevention or treatment of norovirus infection. It is currently being evaluated in healthy volunteers in a Phase 1 human challenge study to assess its efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics after exposure to the Snow Mountain virus.

What does CDI-988 target?

CDI-988 targets the viral protease enzyme, which is essential for norovirus replication. By inhibiting this enzyme, the drug aims to block the virus's ability to multiply in the body. This mechanism is being studied in clinical trials for its potential to treat or prevent norovirus infection.

Who makes CDI-988?

CDI-988 is being developed by Cocrystal Pharma, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol COCP. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this investigational drug for norovirus infection.

What phase is CDI-988 in?

CDI-988 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It has completed a Phase 1 safety study in healthy participants and is currently recruiting for another Phase 1 trial that evaluates its efficacy in healthy adults challenged with Snow Mountain virus. It is not yet approved by the FDA and remains investigational.

What clinical trials is CDI-988 in?

CDI-988 has been studied in two Phase 1 trials. NCT05977140 was a completed safety study in 94 healthy participants in Australia. NCT07198139 is an ongoing, recruiting trial in the United States that will enroll 40 healthy adults to evaluate the drug's efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics after challenge with Snow Mountain virus.

Is CDI-988 the same as any other drug?

CDI-988 is a distinct investigational drug candidate developed by Cocrystal Pharma. It is not known to be the same as any other marketed or approved medication. Its unique protease inhibitor mechanism is being studied specifically for norovirus, and no alternative names have been reported.
