Pre-clinical and Clinical Development for LSALT Peptide to Treat Inflammation and Kidney Injury

FY 2018-19 · 2019-01-01

Summary
LSALT is a peptide drug and a selective non-enzymatic dipeptidase-1 antagonist and prevents leukocyte adhesion to endothelial cells creating numerous indications for targeting inflammation in the context of microbial and non-microbial (sterile) tissue injury. In pre-clinical mouse models, LSALT has proven efficacious in preventing acute kidney injury induced by ischemia-reperfusion, toxins and sepsis. LSALT patents have been assigned to Arch Biopartners Inc. who will manage drug development and human clinical trials for acute kidney injury as the first indication. Identification of new and more effective versions of LSALT is ongoing.

Description (French)
LSALT est un médicament peptidique et un antagoniste sélectif non enzymatique de la dipeptidase-1 et empêche l'adhésion des leucocytes aux cellules endothéliales, ce qui crée de nombreuses indications pour cibler l'inflammation dans le contexte de lésions tissulaires microbiennes et non microbiennes (stériles). Chez des modèles de souris précliniques, LSALT s'est révélé efficace pour prévenir les lésions rénales aiguës induites par l'ischémie-réperfusion, les toxines et la septicémie. Les brevets de LSALT ont été cédés à Arch Biopartners Inc., qui gérera le développement de médicaments et les essais cliniques chez l'humain pour les lésions rénales aiguës comme première indication. L'identification de nouvelles versions plus efficaces de LSALT est en cours.
