“SORAPRAZAN”: A STGD POC STUDY

Together with a consortium of partners, Katairo has received funding from the European Commission.

Under the project name “Soraprazan” – which is the INN name of the active ingredient of Remofuscin – a proof-of-concept clinical trial with Remofuscin for Stargardt disease is being prepared and performed. 

The project encompasses the manufacture of the drug product, including trial site supply, regulatory affairs, the planning and execution of the clinical study managed by an industry CRO, the establishment and maintenance of a pharmacovigilance system, the communication and dissemination of results, the preparation for the exploitation of results, and the coordination of the project.

The clinical trial is scheduled to start in Q4 2018 and last through late 2021. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 779317.
