Frequently asked questions about GZ389988

What is GZ389988 used for?

GZ389988 is an investigational small molecule developed by Sanofi for the treatment of osteoarthritis, specifically painful osteoarthritis of the knee. It is administered as a single intra-articular dose directly into the knee joint. It remains in clinical development and is not approved for any indication.

What does GZ389988 target?

GZ389988 targets NTRK1, also known as tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA). It is an inhibitor of this receptor. NTRK1 is a neurotrophin receptor involved in pain signaling, which is the rationale for testing the compound in painful knee osteoarthritis.

Who is developing GZ389988?

GZ389988 is being developed by Sanofi, the French multinational pharmaceutical company listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker SNY. Sanofi sponsored both clinical trials of the compound conducted to date.

What phase is GZ389988 in?

GZ389988 has completed Phase 2 development. Its Phase 2 proof-of-concept trial evaluated a single intra-articular dose versus placebo in patients with painful osteoarthritis of the knee. The drug is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA or any other regulatory authority.

What clinical trials is GZ389988 in?

GZ389988 has been studied in two completed trials: NCT02424942, a first-in-human Phase 1 study of ascending single intra-articular doses, and NCT02845271, a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study comparing a single intra-articular dose against placebo. Both enrolled patients with painful osteoarthritis of the knee in Germany, with 28 and 104 participants respectively.
