iX Biopharma (SGX:42C) has updated its progress on Wafermine and iXB 401, according to a Monday filing on the Singapore Exchange.
Following the end of its licensing agreement with Seelos Therapeutics, iX Biopharma has engaged Kybora, a global life sciences advisory firm, to assist in out-licensing Wafermine, a sublingual ketamine wafer.
Kybora will help the company explore licensing opportunities in key markets for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) and depressive disorders. Wafermine's Orphan Drug Designation from the US FDA emphasizes its potential as a non-opioid treatment option.
The company has also begun preclinical testing for iXB 401, a sublingual semaglutide wafer for Type 2 diabetes and obesity.
iX Biopharma has developed various formulations and appointed a clinical research organization to conduct studies in diabetic mice. iXB 401 aims to improve patient compliance and address supply and environmental challenges associated with current GLP-1 treatments.
