Tharimmune receives regulatory feedback from EMA for TH104 program

Tharimmune (THAR) received feedback from a Scientific Advice meeting with the European Medicines Agency that included guidance on a planned Phase 2 trial to advance TH104, the Company’s lead clinical-stage candidate for moderate-to-severe pruritus in primary biliary cholangitis. The EMA interactions specifically focused on both the Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical program of TH104. Overall, the Agency noted that using Article 10(3), hybrid application, is acceptable and could enable referring to non-clinical and some safety data from the approved products. Regarding non-clinical information provided, the Agency endorsed the strategy presented by the Company and noted that there is no need to conduct additional animal studies and considered human exposure to be adequate to move forward. The Agency found the design and main features of the proposed Phase 2 study overall acceptable with some comments. The Agency also provided general guidance for the design of a future Phase 3 study. The Company plans to initiate a Phase 2 multiple-ascending dose trial in the coming months to assess the safety and tolerability of TH104, which will also assess the change from baseline in itch scores to evaluate chronic pruritus in PBC patients. The Company expects topline data in 2025 and continues to engage with both U.S. and EU regulatory authorities.
