AN2 Therapeutics Inc. has announced the commencement of its first-in-human clinical trial for the drug candidate AN2-502998, intended for the treatment of chronic Chagas disease. This Phase 1 trial aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of the oral drug in healthy volunteers. Preclinical studies in nonhuman primates have indicated AN2-502998's potential to cure chronic Chagas disease. With no FDA-approved treatment available for adults with the disease, this development is significant. The company plans to complete Phase 1 dosing by the end of 2025. In collaboration with the Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative, AN2 Therapeutics is also preparing for a Phase 2 trial, anticipated to start in 2026, with data expected in 2027. Results from the current Phase 1 trial have not yet been presented.
