Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals by Vedanta Biosciences
VE202 is a first-in-class, orally administered, investigational live biotherapeutic product (LBP) consortium consisting of 16 strains of bacteria, which is investigated for the treatment of ulcerative colitis.
VE303 is a defined bacterial consortium therapeutic candidate designed for the prevention of recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI). It was granted orphan drug designation and fast track designation.
The financing will be used to support pivotal-stage development of its lead candidate, VE303, for the prevention of recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI), and a Phase 2 study of VE202 for ulcerative colitis, among other development activities.
VE303 is an orally administered, rationally-defined bacterial consortium candidate being developed for high-risk Clostridioides difficile (CDI) infection.
Data presentations include review of the VE303 Phase 2 CONSORTIUM study, in which VE303 was well tolerated and highly active at preventing Clostridioides difficile infection recurrence in subjects at high risk of recurrence.
Vedanta reported positive topline results from Phase 2 CONSORTIUM trial, in which VE303 was associated with a 31.7% absolute risk reduction in rate of recurrence when compared with placebo, representing a greater than 80% reduction in odds of a CDI recurrence.
Proceeds expected to be used primarily to support a Phase 3 trial of Vedanta’s lead candidate VE303 in Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) and a Phase 2 trial of VE202 in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Results further support the benign safety profile of VE202 and identify an optimal dosing regimen. Vedanta plans to initiate a Phase 2 clinical trial of VE202 in ulcerative colitis patients in the second half of 2021.
The new UEG Week data presentation focuses on the kinetics and durability of colonisation from an 11-strain consortium of VE202 under various dosing and pre-treatment regimens.
