Brensocatib--
Insmed said its experimental drug to treat a type of chronic lung disease helped significantly reduce respiratory symptoms such as chronic cough in a late-stage study.
The drug candidate, brensocatib, is being developed to treat patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, a chronic lung condition where the walls of the airways are widened due to inflammation and infection.
The company said it plans to file a marketing application for brensocatib with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the fourth quarter of this year, and it expects to launch the drug in mid-2025.
Thanks for posting! Curious how you read this? Does "late stage" seem less than what they set out to do?
Hi Scoop! They are on target with the study and excited about the topline results!
This is very interesting. The lower dose was more effective. Should take maybe 6-10 months for FDA approval...then wait a bit and see if there is any bad consequence of the drug.
"Side effects included Covid, inflammation of the nasal passages, cough and headache."
We will have to see!
you can't get covid out of the blue. you have to have been exposed. Maybe they mean you are more "susceptible" to covid but then why not other viruses?
Yes.. very interesting side effects!
Already had those 4 side effects the last 6 months and a few others to boot 🙁
Hi becleartoday. OK, my need for clarification is, what is topline results? Thanks.
Topline results in a clinical trial refer to the high-level summary of the key findings from the trial. They typically include the primary efficacy and safety data points, without providing the full detailed results or analysis.
