Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is announcing receipt of the first results from human pilot study #2, GLP-1-H24-2. According to the announcement, the company’s DehydraTECH(R)-processed Rybelsus(R) evidenced a trend toward higher overall absorption under fed conditions compared to Rybelsus(R) that was not processed with DehydraTECH. The DehydraTECH-processed Rybelsus(R) evidenced higher semaglutide levels in 17 of the 19 blood draws taken until the 24-hour completion of the study, averaging 18.8% higher semaglutide levels over the course of the study compared to Rybelsus(R) alone. However, the announcement noted that the differences were variable and not significant statistically with such a small sample size.
“Lexaria is delighted that our contracted clinical research organization was able to complete the active phase of the study on schedule,” commented Chris Bunka, CEO of the company. “The results of these study arms have shown that DehydraTECH appears to continue to offer pharmacokinetic improvements even when dosed under fed conditions, reinforcing DehydraTECH’s beneficial delivery kinetics.”
