Frequently asked questions about HEC96719

What is HEC96719 used for?

HEC96719 is an investigational small molecule being developed for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It is in Phase 2 clinical development and is not approved for any indication. The program targets the metabolic therapeutic area, specifically liver disease associated with fat accumulation and inflammation.

Who makes HEC96719?

HEC96719 is being developed by Sunshine Biopharma Inc., which trades under the ticker SBFM. The company is the sponsor of the clinical program evaluating the drug in patients with non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and related fatty liver conditions.

What phase is HEC96719 in?

HEC96719 is in Phase 2 clinical development. The Phase 2 study in non-cirrhotic non-alcoholic steatohepatitis has been completed, and earlier Phase 1 studies have also been completed. The drug remains investigational and has not been approved by the FDA or any other regulatory agency.

What clinical trials is HEC96719 in?

HEC96719 has been studied in completed trials including NCT05397379, a Phase 2 safety, tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics study in non-cirrhotic NASH conducted in China with 68 participants. Earlier Phase 1 trials include NCT04546984, NCT04422496, and NCT04194242, which evaluated safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and food effects in healthy adult subjects.

Is HEC96719 the same as HEC96719 tablets?

Yes, HEC96719 tablets is an alternative name for HEC96719. The tablet formulation is the dosage form used in the clinical studies, including the Phase 1 trials conducted in Australia and China and the Phase 2 trial in non-cirrhotic NASH. Both names refer to the same investigational small molecule developed by Sunshine Biopharma.

How many patients have been enrolled in HEC96719 trials?

Across the completed clinical trials, 130 participants have been enrolled in studies of HEC96719. The Phase 2 trial in non-cirrhotic NASH enrolled 68 patients, while the Phase 1 studies enrolled 66, 73, and 64 healthy adult subjects respectively. The Phase 2 study was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled.
