Frequently asked questions about hMaxi-K

What is hMaxi-K used for?

hMaxi-K is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of overactive bladder. It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development and has completed one clinical trial in the United States.

What does hMaxi-K target?

hMaxi-K is a gene transfer therapy that delivers the gene for the large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel, also known as Maxi-K or BK channel. This channel helps regulate smooth muscle contraction, which is relevant to overactive bladder.

Who is developing hMaxi-K?

hMaxi-K is being developed by Channel Therapeutics Corporation, a biopharmaceutical company. The company is publicly traded under the ticker symbol PTHS.

What phase is hMaxi-K in?

hMaxi-K is in Phase 1 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 1 trial, which was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The drug is investigational and not yet approved.

What clinical trials has hMaxi-K been in?

hMaxi-K has been studied in one completed clinical trial, NCT01870037, titled 'Phase 1 Study With OAB Assessing the Safety and Activity of hMaxi-K Gene Transfer.' This trial enrolled 13 female participants with overactive bladder in the United States.

Is hMaxi-K the same as Maxi-K?

hMaxi-K is a gene transfer therapy that delivers the gene for the Maxi-K potassium channel. It is sometimes referred to by the name hMaxi-K, which stands for human Maxi-K. The drug itself is distinct from the endogenous channel it encodes.
