CARSON CITY, Nev., April 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioVie Inc., (NASDAQ: BIVI) (\u201cBioVie\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) a clinical-stage company developing innovative drug therapies for the treatment of neurological and neurodegenerative disorders and advanced liver disease,\u00a0today announced that patient enrollment is now open for the Phase 2 SUNRISE-PD clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of bezisterim (NE3107) on motor and non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson\u2019s disease (PD) who haven\u2019t been treated with carbidopa\/levodopa. The first patient in the trial has been enrolled, and the Company anticipates topline data to be available in late 2024 or early 2025.<\/p>\n

Parkinson\u2019s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease most often characterized by tremors, muscle rigidity, slowness of movement, postural instability, and difficulties with speech.1<\/sup> Compelling evidence implicates inflammation and insulin resistance in the initiation and progression of the disease \u2013 likely both due to their respective roles in dopamine dysfunction in the brain2-<\/sup>6<\/sup> and neurodegeneration. Current therapeutic approaches provide only symptomatic relief, but do not modify disease progression.<\/p>\n

“Based on promising findings from our earlier Phase 2a trial in patients with moderate to severe symptoms of Parkinson\u2019s disease, we\u2019ve designed the SUNRISE-PD trial to explore bezisterim\u2019s impact at an earlier stage with patients needing to go on therapy for the first time to manage their symptoms,\u201d said Cuong Do, BioVie\u2019s President and CEO. \u201cWe believe that together, these two trials have the potential to illustrate the applicability of an anti-inflammatory, insulin-sensitizing drug candidate in treating both early and advanced Parkinson\u2019s disease along with providing a foundation for registrational disease-progression studies. Additionally, SUNRISE-PD is to our knowledge one of only a handful of trials to evaluate a potential treatment for Parkinson\u2019s disease while allowing patients to participate remotely through a decentralized trial site, broadening access for this focused study population.”<\/p>\n

SUNRISE-PD is a Phase 2b, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with a hybrid decentralized design that will last 20 weeks from the initial screening phase to the safety follow up. During the 12-week double-blind phase, approximately 60 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either 20 mg of bezisterim or placebo twice-daily.<\/p>\n

As part of the trial, patients may participate either completely from their home or at a clinical site. At-home participants will be visited by study nurses who will complete study assessments with the assistance of a neurologist who will attend the visit remotely by video and supervise administration of a modified MDS-UPDRS Part III examination, which will be recorded for review and scoring by a central rating committee. If the trial’s results are positive, participants may be eligible to enter a longer-term, open-label safety study.<\/p>\n

“A growing body of research suggests that chronic inflammation and insulin resistance play a critical role in the onset and progression of Parkinson\u2019s disease. By targeting these two underlying mechanisms, bezisterim may offer a novel therapeutic approach distinct from current treatments, such as levodopa, which may be associated with complications like motor fluctuations and dyskinesia,\u201d said Mark Stacy, MD, Professor of Neurology at Medical University of South Carolina and senior clinical advisor of the SUNRISE-PD trial. \u201cThe SUNRISE-PD trial will provide valuable insights into how an anti-inflammatory, insulin-sensitizing treatment may impact motor and non-motor symptoms in early Parkinson\u2019s disease.”<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Parkinson\u2019s Foundation is pleased to see BioVie shares our goal of increased patient access to clinical trials with their recruitment for the SUNRISE-PD trial, which allows patients to participate remotely through a decentralized trial site in addition to standardized sites,\u201d said James Beck, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of the Parkinson\u2019s Foundation. \u201cBy offering a remote participation option, this study is expanding access to clinical research for more people living with Parkinson\u2019s and actively lowering the all-too-common barrier of geography to research participation. We look forward to seeing how this approach can improve outcomes for all who live with Parkinson\u2019s disease.\u201d<\/p>\n

BioVie announced<\/a> in November 2024 that the SUNRISE-PD clinical trial is fully funded. Enrollment in the trial is being supported by leading advocacy groups in the field, including The Michael J. Fox Foundation<\/a>, Davis Phinney Foundation<\/a> and The Parkinson\u2019s Foundation<\/a>. People with newly diagnosed Parkinson\u2019s disease who have not been prescribed levodopa or other dopamine receptor agonists may meet qualification criteria and can visit www.sunrisePD.com<\/a> to learn more.<\/p>\n

\n About Parkinson\u2019s Disease<\/strong>
\n
Parkinson\u2019s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects movement. It is characterized by the loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra, a region of the brain critical for motor control. Core symptoms include tremors, muscle rigidity, bradykinesia (slowness of movement), postural instability, and difficulties with speech.1,7<\/sup> Non-motor symptoms, such as cognitive impairment, mood disorders, and autonomic dysfunction, also significantly impact patients’ quality of life.8<\/sup> In the early stages, symptoms are often mild and may include subtle tremors, slight movement difficulties, and changes in handwriting or facial expressions. As the disease progresses, motor symptoms become more pronounced, leading to difficulties with balance, speech, and daily activities, often requiring full-time care in later stages.9<\/sup><\/p>\n

Since the 1960s, when dopamine\u2019s critical role in Parkinson\u2019s disease was first identified, levodopa has remained the cornerstone of treatment, providing significant symptom relief by replenishing dopamine levels in the brain.10-11<\/sup> However, long-term use is associated with complications such as motor fluctuations\u2014where symptom control becomes less stable\u2014and dyskinesia, involuntary movements that can become debilitating.12-14<\/sup><\/p>\n

Emerging research highlights the role of chronic inflammation and insulin resistance in the onset and progression of Parkinson\u2019s disease. Neuroinflammation, driven by activated microglia and elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, contributes to oxidative stress and accelerates neuronal degeneration.2-4<\/sup> Additionally, insulin resistance, which impairs the brain\u2019s ability to regulate glucose metabolism, has been linked to increased neurodegeneration and worsening motor symptoms.5-6<\/sup> These metabolic dysfunctions create a harmful cycle that exacerbates disease progression, underscoring the potential of anti-inflammatory and insulin-sensitizing therapies as new avenues for treatment.<\/p>\n

\n About Bezisterim<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
Bezisterim (NE3107) is an orally bioavailable, BBB-permeable, insulin-sensitizer that is also anti-inflammatory. In addition, it is not immunosuppressive and has a low risk of drug-drug interaction. By binding to ERK and selectively modulating NF\u03baB activation and TNF-\u03b1 production, BioVie believes that bezisterim may offer clinical improvements in several disease indications, including PD, AD and long COVID.<\/p>\n

BioVie has conducted and reported efficacy data on its Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study to evaluate bezisterim in patients who have mild-to-moderate AD (NCT04669028). Results of a Phase 2 investigator-initiated trial (NCT05227820) showing bezisterim-treated patients experienced improved cognition and biomarker levels were presented at the Clinical Trials on Alzheimer\u2019s Disease (CTAD) annual conference in December 2022. An estimated six million Americans suffer from AD. A Phase 2 study of bezisterim in PD (NCT05083260) has been completed, and data presented at the AD\/PD\u2122 2023 International Conference on Alzheimer\u2019s and Parkinson\u2019s Diseases and related neurological disorders in Gothenburg, Sweden in March 2023 showed significant improvements in \u201cmorning on\u201d symptoms and clinically meaningful improvement in motor control in patients treated with a combination of bezisterim and levodopa vs. patients treated with levodopa alone, and no drug-related adverse events.<\/p>\n

In long COVID, bezisterim has the potential to reduce neurological symptoms including fatigue and cognitive dysfunction. Persistently circulating viral spike proteins are believed to trigger TLR-4 driven activation of NF\u03baB and the subsequent expression of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF, IFNg).<\/p>\n

\n About BioVie Inc.<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
BioVie Inc. (NASDAQ: BIVI) is a clinical-stage company developing innovative drug therapies for the treatment of neurological and neurodegenerative disorders (long COVID, AD and PD) and advanced liver disease. In neurodegenerative disease, the Company\u2019s drug candidate bezisterim inhibits inflammatory activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase and the transcription factor nuclear factor-\u03baB, and the associated neuroinflammation and insulin resistance but not ERK and NF\u03baB homeostatic functions (e.g., insulin signaling and neuron growth and survival). Both neuroinflammation and insulin resistance are drivers of AD and PD. Persistent systematic inflammation and neuroinflammation are key features in patients with neurological symptoms of long COVID. In liver disease, the Company\u2019s Orphan drug candidate BIV201 (continuous infusion terlipressin), with FDA Fast Track status, is being evaluated and discussed with guidance received from the FDA regarding the design of Phase 3 clinical testing of BIV201 for the reduction of further decompensation in participants with liver cirrhosis and ascites. The active agent is approved in the U.S. and in about 40 countries for related complications of advanced liver cirrhosis. For more information, visit www.bioviepharma.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
