Let’s Take a Closer Look at Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for Parkinson’s disease, or PD, and related disorders.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for Parkinson’s disease, or PD, and related disorders.

The company’s multi-therapeutic pipeline has a primary focus on neurodegeneration and their lead program IkT-148009, an Abelson Tyrosine Kinase (c-Abl) inhibitor, targets the treatment of Parkinson’s disease inside and outside the brain as well as other diseases that arise from Abelson Tyrosine Kinases.

In 2021, Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) commenced clinical development of IkT-148009, a small molecule Abelson Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor which the company believes can modify the course of Parkinson’s disease including its manifestation in the gastrointestinal tract, or GI.

Results to date of the company’s completed Phase 1/1b Single and Multiple Ascending Dose escalation study (SAD and MAD, respectively) in older and elderly healthy volunteers and in mild to moderately advanced Parkinson’s patients have revealed important insights into the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of IkT-148009 in human subjects and patients.

Results from the 88 older and elderly healthy Phase 1 subjects and 14 Phase 1b Parkinson’s patients have shown that IkT-148009 has a half-life of greater than 24 hours and just a 25 mg once-daily oral dose reached exposures that are consistent with the exposures to the drug that resulted in therapeutic efficacy in animal models of progressive Parkinson’s disease.

In addition, a review of unblinded adverse event data revealed that just nine adverse events of any grade were observed in subjects or patients on IkT-148009, and at least four of these adverse events could not be attributed to IkT-148009.

The remaining five adverse events were of Grade 1 with no clinical significance.

FDA review of the Phase 1/1b data and the protocol for the Phase 2a three-month dosing study resulted in the FDA agreeing with the company’s view that it was appropriate for the Phase 2a study to begin, prompting them to close the Phase 1b study after two dosing cohorts.

The Phase 2a ‘201′ study began May 23, 2022 with the opening of the first site; the company has opened 16 of 34 selected sites as of November 1, 2022 and 11 patients have been randomized into the trial as of November 1, 2022.

120 treatment naïve patients are planned to be enrolled in this study which will dose patients with one of three planned doses of IkT-148009 or a placebo once daily for three months.

In addition to primary endpoints of safety/tolerability/pharmacokinetics, a hierarchy of 15 secondary endpoints measuring drug impact on motor and non-motor features of Parkinson’s disease in the brain or GI tract will be evaluated with descriptive statistics.

In July 2022, Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) filed its Investigational New Drug Application (IND) with the FDA in preparation to initiate the clinical development of IkT-001Pro, its prodrug of imatinib mesylate to treat Stable-phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (SP-CML).

IkT-001Pro will be evaluated in a two-part dose finding/dose equivalence study in up to 56 healthy volunteers.

The study is designed to evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetics of IkT-001Pro and determine the dose of IkT-001Pro equivalent to 400 mg imatinib mesylate, the standard-of-care dose for SP-CML.

Following clearance of the IND by the FDA on August 26, 2022, the two-part study, now known as the ‘501’ study, was initiated with the first patient dosing anticipated by the beginning of December, completion of the first cohort anticipated by year-end 2022 and completion of the pharmacokinetic analysis anticipated in early first quarter 2023.

Following the completion of both parts of this study and assuming the equivalent dose of IkT-001Pro relative to 400 mg imatinib mesylate is established, Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) will confer with the FDA to begin the NDA process following the proposed approval path for IkT-001Pro under the 505(b)(2) statute.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) will simultaneously pursue a superiority study comparing the selected doses of IkT-001Pro to standard-of-care 400 mg imatinib mesylate in SP-CML patients using a novel two-period wait list crossover switching study.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)’s programs utilize small molecule, oral protein kinase inhibitors to treat neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.

In Parkinson’s disease (PD), Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) has shown in animal models of progressive disease that its lead clinical candidate, IkT-148009, is a brain penetrant Abelson tyrosine kinase, or c-Abl inhibitor, that halts disease progression and reverses functional loss in the brain and reverses neurological dysfunction in the GI tract in animal models of human disease.

The ability to halt progression and restore function was shown in animal models of progressive disease that mimic the rate of disease progression and the extent of functional loss in the brain and/or the GI tract as found in patients with PD. Small-molecule Medications with World-class Potential.

Small-molecule Medications with World-class Potential

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) used their innovative drug development platform called Re-engineering Approach with Metabolism Preserved (RAMP™) to create their initial product candidates. These candidates utilize a targeting strategy that involves blocking the activation of Abl kinases, which can be used to develop small-molecule medications capable of stopping the progression of diseases in various therapeutic areas including:

A disease-modifying therapy that we believe halts the progression and reverses the functional loss arising from Parkinson’s disease in the brain and gastrointestinal (GI) tract while simultaneously reducing or clearing the toxic form of alpha-synuclein believed to be the cause of Parkinson’s.

A treatment for stable-phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) with a prodrug of the anticancer agent imatinib that we believe will have a superior safety profile, improve oral absorption, lower the dose required for efficacy and suppress ongoing nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting associated with imatinib therapy.

A companion therapeutic that we believe may remove the risk of JC polyomavirus (JCV) infection in the brain, the cause of Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML). PML is a rare but rapidly fatal brain infection that arises from the migration of JCV from reservoirs in the body into the brain. The development of PML has been linked to treatment with more than 15 immunosuppressive medications that are used to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) is also exploring development opportunities for the treatment of Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) and Dementia with Lewy Body (DLB). MSA is a neurodegenerative movement disorder which shares the hallmarks of c-Abl activation and alpha-synuclein chemical modification with Parkinson’s Disease, but arises in a different area of the brain than Parkinson’s itself. DLB is a Parkinson’s-like disease characterized by a primary cognitive deficit that arises from alpha-synuclein aggregate formation.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) believes its therapeutic approach would be disease-modifying.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)’s understanding of how and why PD progresses has led the company to believe that functional loss in Parkinson’s patients may be at least partially reversed although this has not been shown clinically.

Based on the measurements in animal models, it is possible that patients treated with IkT-148009 may have their disease progression slowed or halted, the company may see a progressive reduction in the need for symptomatic or supportive therapy and/or ultimately eliminate the need for symptomatic therapy.

Reversing the Effects of Neurodegenerative Diseases

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)’s therapeutics development programs focus on halting and reversing the effects of neurodegenerative diseases inside and outside of the brain. The company is also developing therapeutics that target the source of neurological infections.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)’s pipeline includes multiple products developed from their proprietary RAMP™ dr-ug innovation and prodrug technology engines that address multiple indications.

Abl Kinases and CNS Diseases

The protein kinase family known as the Abelson Tyrosine Kinase, or Abl kinases, has been shown to play a critical role in monitoring insults to brain neurons and regulating biological pathways that are associated with neurodegeneration.

In addition, recent research has demonstrated that Abl kinases are essential checkpoint regulators that play a central role in Parkinson’s disease initiation and progression.

The breakthrough cancer treatment, imatinib (marketed as Gleevec®), was the first FDA-approved Abl kinase inhibitor.

However, imatinib cannot treat in the brain nor inhibit the wildtype enzyme in patients, even though it has a favorable safety and pharmacology profile.

Applying Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)’s RAMP™ technology to imatinib, Inhibikase generated novel chemical entities that have:

Up to 25-fold enhanced potency against wildtype c-Abl relative to imatinib

Cross the blood-brain barrier and treat in the brain

Nearly identical route of metabolism to imatinib, thereby preserving the relationship between administered dose, drug safety and frequency of adverse events. This provides a level of predictability in a novel drug’s safety profile.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) believes these molecules have the potential to be dosed at low levels with an improved safety profile relative to other drugs in this class currently used to treat certain forms of blood and gastrointestinal cancers, resulting in a safer Abl kinase inhibitor that could be chronically and systemically administered for the treatment of their CNS indications.

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) Receives Favorable FDA Decision Allowing the Company to Immediately Move Forward with Phase 2a Clinical Trials.

Phase 2a '201' clinical trial will resume immediately at 50 and 100 mg doses

Additional safety and pharmacokinetic information will be measured in healthy subjects at the 200 mg dose prior to implementation in the 201 trial

“We are grateful for the expeditious review by the FDA of our response to the Clinical Hold on IkT-148009 in PD”

Milton H. Werner, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT)

“We believe that we now have clarity on the FDA’s expectations as we move forward in the 201 clinical trial for IkT-148009. We are now working to re-open clinical trial sites and initiate screening and enrollment of patients for the trial following agreed upon updates to the Protocol and Informed Consent form. We anticipate completing these restart tasks by the end of the first quarter.”

IkT-148009 is a c-Abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has been shown to halt disease progression, protect and restore lost neurons and to clear the underlying protein pathology in animal studies that suggests a causal link to the initiation and progression of disease in humans.

In lifting the clinical hold, the Agency based their decision on the Company’s Complete Response and Amendment dated December 21, 2022, as well as further commitments made on January 20, 2023 regarding ophthalmologic monitoring in the protocol of study IkT-148009-201 and various modifications to the Investigator Brochure.

The Agency requested that the Company measure the safety and steady-state pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of the 200 mg dose in six (6) healthy subjects prior to administration of the 200 mg dose in Parkinson’s patients.

The 201 trial will resume at the 50 mg and 100 mg dose immediately and the safety/PK measurement at 200 mg will be performed simultaneously.

The Agency further requested the measurement of visual acuity and examination of the cornea and lens to complement the analysis of retina, macula and fundus that was already part of the ocular monitoring program in the 201 trial.

This monitoring program is consistent with the monitoring program for ocular pathology of other approved protein kinase inhibitors. To date, no ocular pathology has been observed in any trial participant administered IkT-148009.

The Agency further requested removal of safety-related data in the Investigator Brochure for the primary metabolites of IkT-148009 to give the Agency time to review the underlying report in support of this safety data.

With agreement on conditions for restart of the 201 trial and the lifting of the clinical hold on IkT-148009, the Company intends to seek a lifting of the Clinical Hold on its program focused on Multiple System Atrophy (MSA).

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT): Focused on the Unmet Need in the Management of Parkinson’s Disease

Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) Announces Advancement of IkT-148009 Phase 2 '201' Program Following FDA Review

On June 13, 2022, Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) announced that it is advancing its Phase 2a study following review of the study protocol and Phase 1/1b data by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The 101 trial was a single and multiple ascending dose safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) trial evaluating once daily administration of IkT-148009, the Company’s lead c-Abl inhibitor for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease. The study evaluated single doses up to 325 mg per day and multiple doses up to 100 mg in 88 older and elderly healthy adults and subsequently in 13 patients with mild to moderately advanced Parkinson’s disease. Clinical pharmacology of IkT-148009 in patients closely paralleled the clinical pharmacology of IkT-148009 in older healthy volunteers. IkT-148009 also demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile up to a dose of 325 mg with no clinically significant adverse events observed.

Following a review of IkT-148009 safety, tolerability and PK data in the first two cohorts of the 101 trial in Parkinson’s patients at 50 and 100 mg as well as the 201 trial protocol, the FDA agreed with the Company’s view that proceeding with the 201 trial was appropriate without restrictions. Based on this feedback, Inhibikase will continue to advance the 201 trial and end enrollment of the 101 trial.

“The 101 trial was the first in human study of our novel c-Abl inhibitor, IkT-148009, which has been designed to alter the course of Parkinson’s disease. The favorable safety, tolerability and PK data of IkT-148009 observed to date supports the continued pursuit of IkT-148009 clinically,” commented Milton H. Werner, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Based on these data and agreement with the FDA, we are very pleased to open enrollment in our 201 trial, just 17 months from the first-in-human dose of IkT-148009. This study will allow us to further evaluate the long-term safety and potential benefit of IkT-148009 in patients with Parkinson’s disease. With our first two trial sites actively screening patients, we expect to dose the first patient in the 201 trial by the end of the second quarter.”

“The 101 trial and other early studies represent key milestones that have now laid the foundation for critical trials that will define the clinical efficacy and safety of IkT-148009 over longer time periods,” said Robert A. Hauser, MD, Director of the Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders Center of the University of South Florida.

The 201 trial is a 3:1 randomized, double-blind, twelve-week dosing trial that will measure the safety, tolerability and steady-state PK of IkT-148009 in untreated Parkinson’s patients as primary endpoints. The trial will also measure a hierarchy of Parkinson’s-related disease assessments in the brain and gut as secondary or exploratory endpoints. Inhibikase expects that at least 7 of 40 total sites will be open by the end of the second quarter this year.

“Parkinson’s disease is an inexorably progressive disorder and a disease-modifying therapy that slows or halts progression remains a major unmet need in the management of this disorder,” said C. Warren Olanow, M.D., FRCPC, Professor Emeritus in the Department of Neurology and Department of Neuroscience at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, and Interim Chief Medical Officer of Inhibikase Therapeutics.

“IkT-148009 has shown a good safety profile in initial SAD and MAD clinical studies as well as encouraging results in relevant humanized animal models of PD. We are excited to begin enrolling patients in our double blind placebo controlled 201 trial, which will evaluate the safety and potential disease modifying effects of IkT-148009 in a longer term setting for untreated Parkinson’s patients.“
