Frequently asked questions about SCY-635

What is SCY-635 used for?

SCY-635 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C and hepatitis C infection. It has been evaluated in clinical trials as a potential therapy for patients with hepatitis C, but it is not approved for any indication and remains in clinical development.

What does SCY-635 target?

SCY-635 targets cyclophilin A, also known as PPIA (peptidylprolyl isomerase A). It acts as an inhibitor of this protein. By inhibiting PPIA, SCY-635 interferes with the hepatitis C virus life cycle, which is the basis for its investigation as an antiviral treatment for chronic hepatitis C.

Who is developing SCY-635?

SCY-635 is being developed by SCYNEXIS, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol SCYX. SCYNEXIS is the sponsor of the clinical trials evaluating SCY-635 in patients with hepatitis C.

What phase is SCY-635 in?

SCY-635 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It has completed a Phase 1 trial and a Phase 2 trial, but it is not FDA approved and remains an investigational drug. No active trials are currently listed for SCY-635.

What clinical trials is SCY-635 in?

SCY-635 has been studied in two completed clinical trials: NCT01290965, a Phase 1 trial titled 'Safety, PK and Efficacy of 15 Days of SCY-635 Treatment in Hepatitis C Patients' with 57 participants, and NCT01265511, a Phase 2 trial titled 'Study of SCY-635, Pegasys and Copegus in Hepatitis C' with 10 participants.
