Clene Inc. (Nasdaq: CLNN) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company leading the forefront of innovative treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. Utilizing their patented clean-surfaced nanotechnology (CSN), Clene has developed a groundbreaking electro-crystal-chemistry drug development platform, which produces stable, clean-surfaced nanocrystal suspensions. This cutting-edge technology allows for the creation of therapeutic nanoparticles designed to treat conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson’s disease, and multiple sclerosis (MS).
Headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, Clene operates with additional research and development facilities in Maryland. Their flagship product, CNM-Au8®, is a first-in-class investigational therapy that enhances mitochondrial health, thus protecting neuronal function. CNM-Au8® targets the central nervous system, facilitating improved cellular survival and function through mechanisms involving the NAD pathway and reduction of oxidative stress.
Recent significant achievements include:
- VISIONARY-MS Trial: Clene reported sustained improvement in vision and cognitive function in patients with stable relapsing MS during the long-term extension phase of the trial, demonstrating the potential of CNM-Au8® to improve neurological outcomes.
- ALS Expanded Access Program (EAP): Clene's EAP has shown promising survival benefits for individuals with advanced ALS, highlighting the robust efficacy and safety of CNM-Au8®.
- NIH Funding: Clene secured a substantial four-year grant from the National Institutes of Health to support an expanded access program for ALS, emphasizing the recognition and support from the broader medical and scientific community.
- Financial Position: As of the end of 2023, Clene reported $35 million in cash and equivalents, ensuring sufficient funding to advance their operations through 2024.
Clene continues to build on its promising clinical data, aiming to move CNM-Au8® into Phase 3 trials and potentially bring new hope to patients suffering from neurodegenerative diseases.
