Paris, France-based Nautilus Biotech has submitted an Investigational New Drug filing to the US Food and Drug Administration for injectable Belerofon, its protease-resistant, long-lasting interferon (IFN) alpha.
The drug candidate has therapeutic potential for the treatment of a number of clinical diseases, including chronic hepatitis C, according to the company. It is expected that it will be possible to administer the new drug at a significantly lower dose while maintaining the weekly frequency of the established pegylated IFN-alpha products, resulting in improved safety and patient compliance.
