TheraVida, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel combination drug products, presented positive results from a Phase 2 clinical trial of its lead product candidate, Tolenix ™ (THVD-201), for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) and urge urinary incontinence (UUI) at the 28 th Annual Congress of the European Urological Association (EAU) in Milan, Italy.

 

Tolenix ™ is a twice-daily (BID) proprietary combination of tolterodine, to treat OAB and UUI, and pilocarpine, to reduce the significant dry mouth (xerostomia) caused by muscarinic antagonist medications such as tolterodine.

pilocarpine

The objectives of the randomized, double-blinded, multiple-crossover Phase 2 trial were to assess the safety and efficacy of Tolenix ™ in reducing the frequency of micturition (urination) and incontinence episodes per day, as compared to both placebo control and active control Detrol ® (tolterodine). In addition, common side effects of muscarinic antagonist therapies, such as dry mouth, were carefully assessed in the 138 patients enrolled in the trial. This international Phase 2 clinical trial was conducted in South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand.

Patients receiving Tolenix ™ (2mg tolterodine plus 9mg pilocarpine, administered BID) experienced statistically significant improvements in their OAB and UUI symptoms over placebo, with a reduction in daily micturitions of 0.88 (p<0.0001) and a reduction in daily incontinence episodes of 0.47 (p<0.0001). This efficacy was similar in magnitude to the maximum dose of active control Detrol ® (2mg tolterodine, administered BID).
