Entera Bio Files Patent Applications for Inventions that Optimize its Platform Technology for Oral Delivery of Large Molecule Therapeutics – Yahoo…

Entera Bio Ltd.

Inventions aim to improve bioavailability and reduce drug costs

Patent applications include optimized oral delivery of specific molecules for various indications

BOSTON and JERUSALEM, May 05, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Entera Bio Ltd. (NASDAQ: ENTX), a leader in the development of orally delivered large molecule therapeutics, today announced that it recently filed multiple U.S. patent applications to further strengthen the Companys patent protection and support future developments.

These patent applications address an optimized platform technology intended to be utilized for future therapeutic applications. The modified platform has the potential for a higher bioavailability and lower cost of goods in comparison to competitive technologies used for the oral delivery of peptides. Additionally, the technology is designed to utilize only well-known and approved pharmaceutical excipients and, therefore, we believe it can simplify regulatory approval. In parallel with the platform technology patent, the Company filed several patent applications related to the oral delivery of specific molecules or families of molecules, including parathyroid hormone (PTH), glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1, GLP-2, human growth hormone (hGH), and others, utilizing the newly optimized oral delivery platform for indications including osteoporosis, hypoparathyroidism, non-union bone fractures, short bowel syndrome, and GH deficiency, and others.

We believe Entera is at the forefront of innovating and improving the oral delivery of large molecule proteins. Weve filed a substantial number of new patent applications intended to fortify our robust intellectual property position as we evaluate engaging in additional strategic partnerships, stated Entera Chief Executive Officer, Spiros Jamas. We see opportunities with GLPs, orphan indications, and the extension of major categories of biologic drugs, which have the potential for oral delivery through Enteras platform. Concurrently, we are working on global partnering of our lead asset, EB613, as it moves toward a pivotal Phase 3 for the treatment of osteoporosis.

About Entera Bio

Entera is a leader in the development of orally delivered large molecule therapeutics for use in areas with significant unmet medical need where adoption of injectable therapies is limited due to cost, convenience and compliance challenges for patients. The Companys proprietary, oral drug delivery technology is designed to address the technical challenges of poor absorption, high variability, and the inability to deliver large molecules to the targeted location in the body through the use of a synthetic absorption enhancer to facilitate the absorption of large molecules, and protease inhibitors to prevent enzymatic degradation and support delivery to targeted tissues. The Companys most advanced product candidates, EB613 for the treatment of osteoporosis and EB612 for the treatment of hypoparathyroidism are in clinical development. The Company recently completed the phase 2 study for EB613. Entera also licenses its technology to biopharmaceutical companies for use with their proprietary compounds and, to date, has established a collaboration with Amgen Inc.

Forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations that involve risks, changes in circumstances, assumptions and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved.

Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those reflected in Enteras forward-looking statements include, among others: changes in our interpretation of the 3-month biomarker data from the Phase 2 clinical trial of EB613, the timing of data readouts from the Phase 2 clinical trial of EB613, the full results of the Phase 2 clinical trial of EB613 and our analysis of the full results from our Phase 2 clinical trial of EB613, the FDAs interpretation and review of our results from and analysis of our Phase 2 trial of EB613, unexpected changes in our ongoing and planned preclinical development and clinical trials, the timing of and our ability to make regulatory filings and obtain and maintain regulatory approvals for our product candidates; the potential disruption and delay of manufacturing supply chains, loss of available workforce resources, either by Entera or its collaboration and laboratory partners, due to travel restrictions, lay-offs or forced closures or repurposing of hospital facilities; impacts to research and development or clinical activities that Entera is contractually obligated to provide, such as those pursuant to Enteras agreement with Amgen; overall regulatory timelines, if the FDA or other authorities are closed for prolonged periods, choose to allocate resources to review of COVID-19 related drugs or believe that the amount of Phase 2 clinical data collected are insufficient to initiate a Phase 3 trial, or a meaningful deterioration of the current political, legal and regulatory situation in Israel or the United States; the availability, quality and timing of the data from the Phase 2 clinical trial of EB613 in osteoporosis patients; the size and growth of the potential market for EB613 and Enteras other product candidates including any possible expansion of the market if an orally delivered option is available in addition to an injectable formulation; the scope, progress and costs of developing Enteras product candidates including EB612 and GLP-2; Enteras reliance on third parties to conduct its clinical trials; Enteras expectations regarding licensing, business transactions and strategic collaborations; Enteras operation as a development stage company with limited operating history; Enteras ability to continue as a going concern absent access to sources of liquidity; Enteras expectations regarding its expenses, revenue, cash resources, liquidity and financial condition; Enteras ability to raise additional capital; Enteras interpretation of FDA feedback and guidance and how such guidance may impact its clinical development plans; Enteras ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval for any of its product candidates; Enteras ability to comply with Nasdaqs minimum listing standards and other matters related to compliance with the requirements of being a public company in the United States; Enteras intellectual property position and its ability to protect its intellectual property; and other factors that are described in the Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, Risk Factors and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections of Enteras filings with the SEC and available free of charge on the SECs website at http://www.sec.gov. Additional factors may be set forth in those sections of Enteras Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the Annual Report), filed with the SEC in the first quarter of 2022.
