CEO statement
The second quarter was intense with full focus on finalizing the patient recruitment in our phase IIb-study CONDUCT and on June 26 we could announce the eagerly awaited news that we had enrolled the last patient. It is a significant milestone for InDex to have enrolled the total 213 patients in the study and we expect to report the top line results end of August. The last patients have completed the study visit at week 6 where we collect the primary endpoint data. Now the data is being quality controlled, before the database can be locked and unblinded for analysis.
The CONDUCT study includes 91 clinics in 12 European countries and investigates three different dose strengths and two different dose frequencies of cobitolimod. The study objective is to identify the dosing regimen that provides the optimal efficacy, defined by FDA and EMA agreed endpoints for moderate to severe ulcerative colitis, while maintaining the favourable safety profile seen with the compound in previous clinical studies. Still no safety issues have been noted in the CONDUCT study.
In June we could also report that the European Patent Office has granted a new method of use patent for cobitolimod. The new patent constitutes a valuable complement to our robust intellectual property portfolio for cobitolimod in Europe. The patent will provide an exclusivity period until November 2032, with the possibility of up to 5 years term extension after market approval. Corresponding patents were granted in the US in November 2016 and in Japan in August 2017, and a corresponding patent application has also been filed in Canada.
These are exciting times for InDex as a company with the top line results from the CONDUCT study just around the corner. Positive results will bring us much closer to our goal of making cobitolimod available to patients suffering from ulcerative colitis who today lack treatment options with a satisfactory combination of efficacy and safety. We are well prepared, and I look forward with confidence to the study results that will start a new chapter in the history of InDex.
