Apabetalone for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: a Phase 2 Clinical Study

Throughout the past twenty years, numerous specific pharmacologic agents targeting the endothelial dysfunction associated with PAH have emerged. Short term placebo-controlled randomized trials assessing PAH-specific monotherapy with these molecules have reported improvements in pulmonary hemodynamics and exercise capacity. A recent meta-analysis also documented a reduction in short-term mortality of about ≈40% with such therapies. Several randomized clinical trials evaluating PAH-specific combination therapy have been conducted. Our recent meta-analysis showed that combination therapy was associated with a 35% risk reduction for the occurrence of clinical worsening compared to monotherapy. Nonetheless, the investigators also showed 17% of PAH patients receiving combination therapy still experienced clinical worsening over a median exposure of 16 weeks. Moreover, long-term survival on PAH-specific also therapy remains poor in the modern era, with a yearly mortality rate of 15 % in incident idiopathic PAH. The identification of innovative therapeutic targets and validation of these complementary therapeutic interventions are thus urgently needed in PAH.
The investigators and others (K. Stenmark, University of Colorado and H. Bogaard, VU University Medical Center, Amsterdam, personal communications), have published strong evidence that BRD4 plays a key role in the pathological phenotype in PAH accounting for disease progression and showed that BRD4 inhibition can reverse PAH in several animal models. Intriguingly, coronary artery disease (CAD) and metabolic syndrome are more prevalent in PAH compared with the global population, suggesting a link between these diseases. Interestingly, BRD4 is also a trigger for calcification and remodeling processes and regulates transcription of lipoprotein and inflammatory factors, all of which are important in PAH and CAD. Apabetalone, an orally available BRD4 inhibitor, is now in a clinical development stage with a good safety profile.
The overall objective of the study is to explore the efficacy and safety of apabetalone as an add-on therapy for adult PAH patients and to inform the conduct and the design of a Phase 3 trial.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of apabetalone as evaluated by the change in PVR over a period of 24 weeks compared to placebo in adult subjects with PAH on stable background therapy.
Secondary objectives include changes at week 24 in 6MWD, plasma NT-proBNP concentration, WHO functional class, ESC/ERS risk stratification score, health-related quality of life and additional hemodynamic data from right heart.
Exploratory objectives are to evaluate the effects of apabetalone compared to placebo in adult subjects with PAH on mortality and clinically relevant morbidity events, and on circulating levels and transcription changes in whole blood markers of metabolism, vascular calcification, inflammation, DNA damage and leucocyte expression of BMPR2.

Resverlogix Announces Publication of its 40th Scientific Journal Article on Apabetalone's Potential Therapeutic Benefits

Calgary, Alberta--(News - January 11, 2024) - Resverlogix Corp. (TSX: RVX) ("Resverlogix", "the Company") today announced publication of an article, entitled, "The BET inhibitor apabetalone decreases neuroendothelial proinflammatory activation in vitro and in a mouse model of systemic inflammation," by Dr. Sylwia Wasiak and colleagues, in Translational Neuroscience. This publication marks the 40th peer-reviewed scientific journal article published by Resverlogix researchers on apabetalone's potential therapeutic benefits. Apabetalone's Publication Record: Articles on apabetalone have been published in some of the world's most prestigious scientific journals, including: Nature, Science, Cell, the Journal of the American Medical Association, Cardiovascular Diabetology and the Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrologists Resverlogix researchers and our collaborators have published 40 articles on apabetalone in scientific journals, and including work by third-party researchers, there are more than 100 articles on apabetalone in the academic literature This body of work presents evidence of apabetalone's potential in the treatment of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, post-COVID-19 conditions, chronic kidney disease, and vascular cognitive impairment, as well as rare diseases such as pulmonary arterial hypertension, facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy, and Fabry's disease The publications also cover a wide spectrum of topics from investigations of apabetalone's mechanism of action at a molecular level, to reports on large-scale clinical trials with thousands of participants "We are very proud of our publication record on apabetalone," said Dr. Ewelina Kulikowski, Chief Scientific Officer at Resverlogix. "Thanks to the dedicated work of our researchers, we have learned an incredible amount about this drug; how it works, why it's safe, and how it can potentially benefit people suffering from chronic disease." "The depth and breadth of our knowledge of apabetalone is on full display in the forty scientific articles that we have published to date," said Donald McCaffrey, President and CEO at Resverlogix. "We firmly believe that apabetalone will help chronic disease patients, we have published an extraordinary amount of evidence that supports our belief, and we are looking forward to conclusively demonstrating it in our upcoming, Phase 3, cardiovascular disease trial, BETonMACE2." Highlights from our Latest Publication: Inflammation in the small blood vessels of the brain is linked to cognitive impairment and decline Using cultured human brain endothelial cells and monocytes, the authors studied apabetalone's effects on inflammation in these small vessels They found that apabetalone treatment reduced the production of pro-inflammatory molecules and cell-cell interactions Their findings were confirmed in a mouse model of brain inflammation, where apabetalone decreased the expression of pro-inflammatory genes By lessening inflammation in the small blood vessels of the brain, apabetalone may help prevent or treat vascular cognitive impairment Our latest article is published online HERE. About Apabetalone Apabetalone (RVX-208), is a first-in-class, small molecule, therapeutic candidate with an epigenetic mechanism of action. It is a BD2 (bromodomain) selective BET (bromodomain and extra-terminal) inhibitor that works in preventing and treating disease by regulating the expression of disease-causing genes. Due to the extensive role for BET proteins in the human body, apabetalone can simultaneously target multiple disease-related biological processes representing a new way to treat chronic disease. Apabetalone is the only drug of its class that is well tolerated for chronic administration, with an established safety record across multiple human clinical trials, totaling over 4200 patient-years of safety data. Cardiology: Apabetalone is the first therapy of its kind to receive Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the US Food & Drug Administration for a major cardiovascular indication. This followed the ground-breaking findings from its Phase 3 study, BETonMACE, which showed apabetalone may prevent major adverse cardiac events among high-risk cardiovascular disease patients who also have type 2 diabetes mellitus.
