NanoViricides (NYSE: NNVC) discusses multiple viral threats and their lead drug candidate NV-387. The company highlights concerns about two H5N1 bird flu genotypes: the severe D1.1 form and the less severe B3.13 variant affecting dairy cattle. The first U.S. H5N1 fatality was reported on January 6, 2025, in Louisiana.
NV-387 has shown superior activity compared to existing treatments in animal models against multiple viruses, including Influenza A H3N2, coronavirus, orthopoxvirus, and RSV. The drug's broad-spectrum capability and unique mechanism targeting host-side features make viral escape unlikely, even as viruses evolve.
The company emphasizes that current seasonal outbreaks of COVID-19, RSV, hMPV, and Norovirus, along with emerging H5N1 mutations that can escape vaccines and antibodies, demonstrate the need for broad-spectrum antivirals like NV-387.
NanoViricides (NYSE:NNVC) announces its broad-spectrum antiviral drug candidate NV-387 as a potential solution against H5N1 bird flu pandemic. The company claims the virus is unlikely to develop resistance to NV-387 as it mimics essential host-side features that H5N1 continues to use despite mutations.
In animal studies, NV-387 demonstrated 88% increased survival compared to existing treatments like oseltamivir (25%), peramivir (38%), and baloxivir (38%). The drug has completed Phase I clinical trials with no adverse events and is preparing for Phase II trials for MPox treatment and respiratory virus infections.
The WHO has noted that current H5N1 strains show reduced susceptibility to existing treatments (NAIs and PBIs), highlighting the need for more effective solutions. While the US has stockpiled H5N1 vaccines, their effectiveness against potential pandemic strains remains uncertain.
NanoViricides (NYSE:NNVC) reported Q3 2024 financial results with cash and equivalents of $3.87 Million and net property assets of $7.36 Million.
