Description
Belnacasan, also known as VX-765, is designed to inhibit Caspase, which is an enzyme that controls the generation of two cytokines, IL-1b and IL-18. VX-765 has been shown to inhibit acute seizures in preclinical models. In addition, VX-765 has shown activity in preclinical models of chronic epilepsy. VX-765 had been dosed in over 100 patients in phase-I and phase-IIa clinical trials relating to other diseases, including a 28-day phase-IIa clinical trial in patients with psoriasis. It has completed the treatment phase of a phase-IIa clinical trial of VX-765 that enrolled approximately 75 patients with treatment-resistant epilepsy. The double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial was designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability and clinical activity of VX-765.
