“The inclusion of the knowledge that was taken from listening to patients and the integration of the perspectives of all critical stakeholders are fundamental for our approach of pharmaceutical development,” said Peter Hecht, Chief Executive Officer from Tisento. “We look forward to promoting the patient-oriented therapeutic development in mitochondrial diseases in two important events. We will share important findings in connection with the design of our phase 2b prizm study in Melas in the primary mitochondria diseases, which were organized by the Reagan studall foundation at the FDA profit documentation. Melas and are proud of it, To support coactions to throw light on the uncovered needs in this rare state.

Primary mitochondrial diseases of public workshops

About Zagociguat

Zagociguat is once a daily, oral examination medicine with a clinical stage that positively influences the potential to influence both peripheral and central nervous system manifestations of mitochondria diseases. Zagociguat stimulates soluble guanylat cyclase (SGC), an enzyme that can be found in every cell in every tissue of the body and is part of a system of cellular mechanisms that control critical physiological functions including the neuronal function and blood flow.

Zagociguat is a first-class SGC stimulator planted in the brain, cell paths in Melas that balanced dysregulated cellular paths. By restoring cellular functions that support mitochondria, Zagociguat can help to restore production mitochondrial energy and the physiological function.

In a phase -2a study in patients with Melas, Zagociguat showed a favorable security profile, exposure in the entire body, including in the central nervous system, and improvements in neuronal function, the mitochondria function and blood flow in the brain. Zagociguat is currently evaluated in the phase -2b -prizm study as the treatment of Melas.
