Frequently asked questions about Allocetra

What is Allocetra used for?

Allocetra is an investigational small molecule being developed for knee osteoarthritis, including primary knee osteoarthritis. It is administered intra-articularly, meaning directly into the knee joint. The drug is currently in clinical trials for this condition and has not been approved by the FDA.

Who is developing Allocetra?

Allocetra is being developed by Enlivex Ltd., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the Nasdaq under the ticker ENLV. The company is conducting clinical trials of Allocetra for knee osteoarthritis in multiple countries, including the United States, Denmark, Israel, Poland, and Moldova.

What phase is Allocetra in?

Allocetra is in Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials for knee osteoarthritis. The Phase 1 trial is active but not recruiting, while the Phase 2 trial is currently recruiting participants. The drug has received a Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation from the FDA, but it remains investigational.

What clinical trials is Allocetra in?

Allocetra is being studied in two clinical trials. NCT06233474 is a Phase 1 study of intra-articular Allocetra in knee osteoarthritis, enrolling 160 participants in Denmark, Israel, and Moldova. NCT07580716 is a Phase 2 trial in patients with primary knee osteoarthritis, enrolling 270 participants in the United States, Denmark, and Poland.

Is Allocetra FDA approved?

Allocetra is not FDA approved. It is an investigational drug currently in Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials for knee osteoarthritis. The FDA has granted it a Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation, which is intended to expedite development and review of regenerative medicine therapies, but approval has not been granted.

What is the design of the Allocetra clinical trials?

The Allocetra clinical trials are randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled. This means participants are randomly assigned to receive either Allocetra or a placebo, and neither the participants nor the researchers know who receives which treatment. The trials enroll adults aged 45 years and older, with the Phase 2 trial requiring participants to be at least 64 years old.
