Tonix Pharmaceuticals NASDAQ TNXP FDA Minutes News PTSD Treatment

Tonix Pharmaceuticals NASDAQ TNXP FDA Minutes News PTSD Treatment

Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on the development of pharmaceutical products to address public health challenges. Shares surged 83.42% during trading on Thursday, November 29, 2018. Over the past three months, Tonix Pharmaceuticals has seen an average daily volume of 1.14 million shares. However, volume of 21.71 million shares or dollar volume of $151.32 million, exchanged hands during trading on Thursday.

Shares jumped Thursday morning after Tonix Pharmaceuticals announced it has received the official minutes from the October 29th Breakthrough Therapy Type B Clinical Guidance meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The minutes confirmed the FDA’s acceptance of the new Phase 3 “RECOVERY” study design and were consistent with the preliminary guidance received at the meeting. The RECOVERY study will be a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of Tonmya 5.6 mg over 12 weeks of treatment for civilian and military-related PTSD in approximately 250 participants across approximately 25 clinical sites. The RECOVERY trial is set to begin in the first quarter of 2019 and will incorporate several new design features including restricting enrollment of study participants to individuals with PTSD who experienced an index trauma within nine years of screening, instead of 2001 or later as in the previous Phase 3 HONOR study. Including participants who have experienced civilian trauma in addition to those with military-related traumas will also be a change from the previous trial. Approximately 250 patients will be enrolled in the RECOVERY trial, compared to the 550 patients targeted for the previous Phase 3 HONOR study.

Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. Press Release:

NEW YORK, Nov. 29, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company), today announced that it has received the official minutes from the October 29th Breakthrough Therapy Type B Clinical Guidance meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The minutes are consistent with the preliminary guidance the Company received at the meeting and confirm FDA’s acceptance of the new Phase 3 “RECOVERY” study design.

As previously communicated, the Company plans to start the RECOVERY trial for the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the first quarter of 2019. The new trial will incorporate several new design features including restricting enrollment of study participants to individuals with PTSD who experienced an index trauma within nine years of screening, instead of 2001 or later as in the Phase 3 HONOR study. The RECOVERY study will also include participants who have experienced civilian traumas in addition to those with military-related traumas. The primary endpoint, mean change from baseline in the severity of PTSD symptoms as measured by the Clinician Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5), is the same as that used in the Phase 3 HONOR study and the Phase 2 AtEase study, but the CAPS-5 primary endpoint will be assessed at Week 4 instead of at Week 12. In the Phase 3 HONOR study, the Week 4 assessment of CAPS-5 showed clinically meaningful improvement at this timepoint in the entire modified Intent-to-Treat sample (p = 0.019). Based on the Week 4 primary endpoint, approximately 250 patients will be enrolled in the RECOVERY trial, compared to approximately 550 patients targeted for the previous Phase 3 HONOR study, which utilized a primary endpoint assessed at week 12.  

Seth Lederman, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Tonix commented, “The minutes from our Breakthrough Therapy Clinical Guidance meeting with the FDA are consistent with our previous assessment.   We are moving forward expeditiously to initiate the RECOVERY study in the first quarter of 2019 and expect to have topline data in the first half of 2020.”

*Tonmya has been conditionally accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as the proposed trade name for TNX-102 SL (cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) for the treatment of PTSD. TNX-102 SL is an investigational new drug and has not been approved for any indication.

About the Phase 3 RECOVERY Study

The RECOVERY study will be a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of Tonmya 5.6 mg over 12 weeks of treatment for civilian and military-related PTSD in approximately 250 participants across approximately 25 clinical sites. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the Week 4 mean change from baseline in the severity of PTSD symptoms as measured by CAPS-5 between those treated with Tonmya and those receiving placebo. A key secondary endpoint will be the Week 12 mean change from baseline in CAPS-5. The CAPS-5 is a standardized structured clinical interview and serves as the standard in research for measuring the symptom severity of PTSD.  Earlier versions of the CAPS were used to support the approval of the two currently marketed PTSD treatments.

About the Phase 3 HONOR Study

The HONOR study was a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study of up to 550 participants with PTSD at 40 U.S. clinical sites.  A formal unblinded interim analysis was completed when approximately 50 percent (n=274) of participants were randomized and completed the 12-week course of treatment with bedtime sublingual Tonmya 5.6 mg (2 x 2.8 mg tablets) or placebo sublingual tablets. The primary efficacy endpoint was the Week 12 mean change from baseline in the severity of PTSD symptoms as measured by CAPS-5 between those treated with Tonmya and those receiving placebo.  The HONOR study was stopped at the interim analysis when the primary endpoint did not cross a predefined study continuation threshold; however, a clinically meaningful improvement in CAPS-5 was observed at Week 4 (p = 0.019). There were no serious and/or unexpected adverse events revealed and the most frequent adverse events related to Tonmya were transient local administration site reactions.

About Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp.

Tonix is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing pharmaceutical products to treat serious neuropsychiatric conditions and biological products to improve biodefense through potential medical counter-measures. Tonix is developing Tonmya, which is in Phase 3 development and has been granted Breakthrough Therapy designation, as a bedtime treatment for PTSD. Tonix is also developing TNX-102 SL as a bedtime treatment for agitation in Alzheimer’s disease under a separate IND to support a Phase 2, potential pivotal, efficacy study and has been designated a Fast Track development program by the FDA for this indication.  TNX-601 (tianeptine oxalate) is in the pre-IND application stage, also for the treatment of PTSD but by a unique mechanism and designed for daytime dosing. Tonix’s lead biologic candidate, TNX-801, is a potential smallpox-preventing vaccine based on a live synthetic version of horsepox virus, currently in the pre-IND application stage.
