Rhea-AI Summary

Jaguar Health (NASDAQ:JAGX) announced that preliminary results from an ongoing pediatric trial of crofelemer, their plant-based anti-secretory drug, will be presented at the April 2025 ELITE PED-GI Congress in Abu Dhabi. The study focuses on treating microvillus inclusion disease (MVID) and short bowel syndrome with intestinal failure (SBS-IF).

Crofelemer has received Orphan Drug Designation from both FDA and EMA for these conditions. The proof-of-concept study evaluates crofelemer's potential to improve stool formation, enhance nutrient absorption, and reduce total parenteral nutrition (TPN) needs in patients. Currently, there are no approved drug treatments for MVID, an ultrarare pediatric disease characterized by severe diarrhea.

Positive results could potentially qualify crofelemer for the EMA's PRIME program and FDA's Breakthrough Therapies program, expediting development and review processes. The study is being conducted at Sheikh Khalifa Medical City under Dr. Mohamad Miqdady's leadership.
