Island Pharmaceuticals Limited: Granted Ethics Approval for ISLA-101 Study

Nov 07, 2023

Island Pharmaceuticals Ltd (ASX: ILA) in Australia has obtained significant approval from the Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) to initiate the Single Ascending Dose study for ISLA-101. This novel study involves the repurposing of ISLA-101, a potential drug aimed at preventing and treating diseases transmitted by mosquitoes, particularly dengue. In this investigation, three different sets of healthy participants will receive increasing doses of ISLA-101 to establish safe and effective blood concentrations against the dengue virus.

The trial, set to take place at Scientia Clinical Research's trial facilities in Sydney, with support from Beyond Drug Development as the Contract Research Organization, is geared to commence immediate patient screening and dosing. Anticipated results are expected to be unveiled in early 2024. These findings are crucial, as they will serve as a guide for refining protocols for Island's forthcoming Phase 2a PEACH clinical trial, marking a significant step forward in the development of treatments for mosquito-borne diseases.
