SUSTAINABLE CONDOM SOLUTIONS PROJECT (SCSP)

DEVELOPMENT OF A NOVEL ORAL ANTIBIOTIC FOR THE TREATMENT OF DRUG RESISTANT GONORRHEA - PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT THE CDC HAS IDENTIFIED NEISSERIA GONORRHOEAE AS A PATHOGEN OF THE HIGHEST THREAT LEVEL (“URGENT THREAT”) TO THE US PUBLIC HEALTH. CURRENTLY THERE IS ONLY A SINGLE RECOMMENDED AGENT REMAINING ON THE CDC TREATMENT GUIDELINES, AN INTRAMUSCULAR INJECTION OF THE EXTENDED SPECTRUM CEPHALOSPORIN, CEFTRIAXONE. HOWEVER, IN THE PAST DECADE, REPORTS OF RESISTANCE TO CEFTRIAXONE HAVE APPEARED ACROSS THE GLOBE. IF ONE OF THESE STRAINS WERE TO DISSEMINATE WIDELY, WE WOULD BE FACING AN ERA OF UNTREATABLE GONORRHEA. UNTREATED INFECTIONS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS AND LIFE-THREATENING SEQUELAE. THUS, DEVELOPING NEW ANTIBIOTICS WITHOUT CROSS-RESISTANCE TO THE CURRENT THERAPEUTICS IS OF CRITICAL IMPORTANCE TO PUBLIC HEALTH. BETWEEN 20 AND 40% OF INDIVIDUALS INFECTED WITH N. GONORRHOEAE ARE CO-INFECTED WITH CHLAMYDIA TRACHOMATIS, A PREDOMINANTLY ASYMPTOMATIC INFECTION THAT CAN HAVE DEVASTATING LONG-TERM EFFECTS ON REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH AND FERTILITY IF NOT TREATED. CEFTRIAXONE IS NOT ACTIVE AGAINST C. TRACHOMATIS AND THE CLINICAL SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF GONORRHEA AND CHLAMYDIA ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM ONE ANOTHER. THEREFORE, UNLESS CHLAMYDIA CAN BE EXCLUDED BY A LABORATORY DIAGNOSIS, EMPIRIC TREATMENT FOR GONORRHEA TYPICALLY INVOLVES ADMINISTRATION OF TWO DIFFERENT CLASSES OF ANTIBIOTICS IN ORDER TO COVER BOTH PATHOGENS. A SINGLE ORAL ANTIBIOTIC EFFECTIVE AGAINST BOTH INFECTIONS WOULD CHANGE THE CURRENT TREATMENT PARADIGM, IMPROVING ADHERENCE TO TREATMENT AS WELL AS REDUCING THE IMPACT THAT DUAL ANTIBIOTIC THERAPY CAN HAVE ON PROMOTING RESISTANCE IN CO-INFECTING PATHOGENS AND COMMENSAL ORGANISMS. FURTHERMORE, AS AN ORAL ANTIBIOTIC, IT WOULD PROVIDE A MUCH-NEEDED TREATMENT OPTION TO PATIENTS AND PHYSICIANS AND ALLOW FOR EXPEDITED PARTNER THERAPY. AIMMAX THERAPEUTICS HAS DISCOVERED A NOVEL ANTIBIOTIC WITH ACTIVITY AGAINST N. GONORRHOEAE THAT IS COMPARABLE TO CEFTRIAXONE. IT HAS DEMONSTRATED POTENT ACTIVITY AGAINST MULTIDRUG- AND PAN-RESISTANT N. GONORRHOEAE ISOLATES, INCLUDING ISOLATES RESISTANT TO CEFTRIAXONE, WITH NO EVIDENCE OF CROSS-RESISTANCE TO EXISTING CLASSES. THE OVERALL GOAL OF THIS PROPOSED FASTTRACK SBIR APPLICATION IS TO DEVELOP A NOVEL ORAL ANTIBIOTIC FOR THE TREATMENT OF GONORRHEA AS THE TOP PRIORITY, AND IF SUITABLE, FOR THE TREATMENT OF CHLAMYDIA ALSO, THE TWO MOST COMMON BACTERIAL SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS IN THE US. THE STUDIES PROPOSED HEREIN WILL CONFIRM THE SUITABILITY OF THIS NEW CLASS OF ANTIBIOTIC FOR THE TREATMENT OF GONORRHEA AND CHLAMYDIA, IDENTIFY A FORMULATION THAT DELIVERS OPTIMAL ORAL BIOAVAILABILITY AND PLASMA EXPOSURE TO PROVIDE EFFECTIVE TREATMENT, AND ADVANCE DEVELOPMENT TOWARDS FILING OF AN IND. RISING ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE COMBINED WITH EASE OF TRANSMISSION, RISKS FOR OUTBREAKS, AND LACK OF SECOND-LINE TREATMENT OPTIONS, ALL POINT TO THE CRITICAL NEED TO IDENTIFY NEW ANTIBIOTICS FOR THE TREATMENT OF GONORRHEA AND EXPEDITIOUSLY ADVANCE THEIR DEVELOPMENT TO THE CLINIC.

SYNTHOPLATE: INTRAVENOUS HEMOSTATIC NANOTECHNOLOGY TO MITIGATE BLEEDING IN THROMBOCYTOPENIA - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT THE NORMAL PLATELET COUNT IN HUMAN BLOOD IS 150,000-400,000/ΜL, AND THESE PLATELETS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR EFFICIENT HEMOSTATIC SURVEILLANCE AND BLEEDING MITIGATION IN THE BODY. THROMBOCYTOPENIA (TCP, LOW PLATELET COUNT) IS A CONDITION CAUSED BY A DECREASE IN PLATELET PRODUCTION, INCREASE IN PLATELET DESTRUCTION OR CONSUMPTION, OR INCREASE IN SPLENIC SEQUESTRATION. THE AGE-ADJUSTED PREVALENCE OF IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIC PURPURA (ITP) IS ESTIMATED TO BE 3.3 PER 100,000 PERSONS IN THE USA, WHILE DRUG-INDUCED TCP AFFECTS 1-2 PER 100,000 PERSONS. THE MAJORITY (>95%) OF TCP CASES RESULT FROM AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS OR ARE INDUCED BY CHEMO- AND RADIOTHERAPIES AS WELL AS OTHER PHARMACEUTICALS. AT PLATELET COUNTS <50,000/ΜL, SURGICAL PROCEDURES ARE COMPLICATED BY HIGH BLEEDING RISKS AND ANY MINOR INJURY MAY LEAD TO EXCESSIVE BLEEDING. AT COUNTS <10,000/ΜL, SPONTANEOUS BLEEDING BECOMES A MAJOR CONCERN. THEREFORE, FREQUENT THERAPEUTIC AND PROPHYLACTIC PLATELET TRANSFUSIONS ARE REQUIRED TO INCREASE PLATELET COUNTS AND MITIGATE BLEEDING RISKS. HOWEVER, THE AVAILABILITY OF NATURAL PLATELET PRODUCTS IS SEVERELY LIMITED BY A NEAR-STATIC POOL OF DONORS AND A VERY SHORT SHELF-LIFE (3-5 DAYS) DUE TO HIGH RISKS OF BACTERIAL CONTAMINATION AND STORAGE-RELATED PLATELET ACTIVATION AND DEGRANULATION. THEREFORE, THERE EXISTS A SIGNIFICANT UNMET CLINICAL NEED FOR A THERAPEUTIC AGENT THAT CAN MITIGATE BLEEDING COMPLICATIONS INTRAVENOUSLY IN TCP PATIENTS, WHILE ALLOWING REDUCED CONTAMINATION AND LONG SHELF-LIFE WITHOUT COMPROMISING FUNCTION. TO THIS END, WE HAVE DEVELOPED A SYNTHETIC HEMOSTATIC NANOTECHNOLOGY, CALLED SYNTHOPLATETM, THAT MIMICS PLATELET’S ABILITY TO ADHERE AND AGGREGATE SPECIFICALLY AT A SITE OF INJURY IN THE BODY. IN PHASE I OF THIS SBIR, WE DEMONSTRATED PLATELET-MIMETIC HEMOSTATIC FUNCTIONS IN VITRO AS WELL AS IN VIVO IN PROOF-OF-CONCEPT TCP MURINE MODELS OF BLEEDING. BUILDING ON THIS IN THE PROPOSED PHASE II STUDIES, WE AIM TO: 1) ESTABLISH APPROPRIATE CLINICAL BIOMARKERS FOR MONITORING SP EFFICACY IN THROMBOCYTOPENIC (TCP) PATIENT BLOOD SAMPLES, 2) DETERMINE THE EFFECTIVE PHARMACODYNAMIC (PD) DOSING WINDOW OF SYNTHOPLATETM IN A RABBIT BLEEDING MODEL OF THROMBOCYTOPENIA, AND 3) ESTABLISH THE PHARMACOKINETIC (PK) PROFILE OF SP IN HEALTHY AND THROMBOCYTOPENIC (TCP) RABBITS. ALTOGETHER, THESE EXPERIMENTS WILL ESTABLISH AND CORRELATE PK WITH EX VIVO FUNCTIONAL ASSAYS AND IN VIVO PD TO GUIDE CLINICAL EVALUATION. SUCCESS IN THIS PHASE II PROPOSAL WILL BE USED TO GENERATE A TARGET PRODUCT PROFILE (TPP), WHICH WILL GUIDE CLINICAL PROTOCOL DESIGN, AS WELL AS AID IN RAISING FOLLOW-ON-FUNDING AND PARTNERSHIPS FOR PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT FROM MULTIPLE POTENTIAL SOURCES. BUILDING ON THESE RESULTS, PHASE III WILL IMPLEMENT DEFINED DOSAGE GUIDELINES FOR IND-ENABLING PHARM/TOX STUDIES WITH GMP-MANUFACTURED SP AND THEREBY PROGRESS TOWARDS SUBMITTING AN IND APPLICATION FOR CLINICAL EVALUATION.

NOVEL TETRAHEDRON BEAM CT FOR POINT-OF-CARE IMAGING IN EAR, NOSE AND THROAT IMAGING - ABSTRACT POINT-OF-CARE IMAGING IS HIGHLY DESIRED IN OTOLARYNGOLOGIC CLINICS FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF EAR, NOSE AND THROAT (ENT) DISEASES INCLUDING CANCERS. DUE TO LIMITED IMAGE QUALITY, CURRENT CONE-BEAM CT (CBCT) PRODUCTS ACT NOT AS A SUBSTITUTE BUT RATHER AS A COMPLEMENT TO DIAGNOSTIC MULTI-SLICE CT (MSCT) IN MAXILLOFACIAL AND ENT IMAGING. THE EMERGING MULTI-SOURCE X-RAY SOURCE TECHNOLOGY SUGGESTS NEW DESIGNS OF CT SYSTEMS THAT MAY HAVE FASTER IMAGING SPEED, IMPROVED IMAGE QUALITY, REDUCED RADIATION EXPOSURE, AND COMPACT GEOMETRIES. TETRAHEDRON BEAM COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY (TBCT) IS A COMPACT VOLUMETRIC CT BASED ON LINEAR ARRAY MULTI- PIXEL X-RAY SOURCES WHICH CAN PRODUCE DIAGNOSTIC-QUALITY VOLUMETRIC IMAGES BUT IN A MUCH MORE COMPACT GEOMETRY THAN CBCT. DURING PHASE I STUDY, WE SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOPED A BENCHTOP ENT-TBCT SYSTEM USING A MULTI-PIXEL THERMIONIC EMISSION X-RAY (MPTEX) SOURCE DEVELOPED IN-HOUSE AND A STATE-OF-ART COMMERCIAL PHOTON-COUNTING DETECTOR (PCD), AND DEMONSTRATED THE SUPERIOR IMAGE QUALITY THAT TBCT CAN ACHIEVE. DURING THE PHASE II STUDY, WE WILL FURTHER REFINE THE MPTEX SOURCE AND DEVELOP A CLINICAL PROTOTYPE SYSTEM. TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL, WE PROPOSE TO PERFORM STUDIES TO ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING SPECIFIC AIMS (SA): SA 1: TO DEVELOP A ROTATABLE SEALED MPTEX SOURCE; SA 2: TO DEVELOP A CLINICAL ENT-TBCT PROTOTYPE ON A ROTATING GANTRY; AND SA 3: TO DEVELOP ADVANCED IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION ALGORITHM AND PERFORM BENCHMARK IMAGING STUDIES. THE OUTCOME OF THIS RESEARCH WILL BE A HIGHLY EFFECTIVE POINT-OF-CARE DIAGNOSTIC IMAGING MODALITY FOR OTOLARYNGOLOGIC CLINICS. FUTURE COMMERCIALIZATION OF THE ENT-TBCT SYSTEM WILL IMPROVE THE QUALITY AND EFFICACY BY SUPPORTING PROMPT DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF ENT CANCERS AND OTHER DISEASES.

COMMUNITY CARE OF BROOKLYN NAVIGATOR: ADDRESSING HEALTH EQUITY THROUGH COMMUNITY-BASED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, SOCIAL SERVICE AND CARE COORDINATION SUPPORT. - PROJECT NAME: COMMUNITY CARE OF BROOKLYN NAVIGATOR: ADDRESSING HEALTH EQUITY THROUGH COMMUNITY-BASED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, SOCIAL SERVICE AND CARE COORDINATION SUPPORT MAIMONIDES MEDICAL CENTER, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE BROOKLYN HEALTH HOME, HAS LAUNCHED THE COMMUNITY CARE OF BROOKLYN (CCB) NAVIGATOR, A CENTRALIZED VIRTUAL NAVIGATION CENTER BRINGING TOGETHER THE MEDICAL, BEHAVIORAL, AND SOCIAL SERVICE PROVIDERS ACROSS OUR NETWORK. THE CCB NAVIGATOR WAS DEVELOPED IN RESPONSE TO A SALIENT NEED TO SIMPLIFY THE PROCESS BY WHICH COMMUNITY MEMBERS ARE CONNECTED TO THE CARE THEY WANT AND NEED. IN HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES SYSTEMS THAT ARE OFTEN SILOED AND FRAGMENTED, IT CAN BE INCREDIBLY CHALLENGING TO A FIND A SERVICE THAT CHECKS ALL THE BOXES: RIGHT TYPE OF CARE, ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA, AND INSURANCE COVERAGE. THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO EXPAND CARE MANAGEMENT TO DRIVE OPTIMAL UTILIZATION OF HEALTHCARE AND COMMUNITY RESOURCES, AND USE THIS PROOF OF CONCEPT TO ENGAGE PAYORS IN SUPPORTING CARE MANAGEMENT THAT FALLS OUTSIDE OF EXISTING PAYMENT STREAMS. THE OBJECTIVES ARE: 1) TO COMPLETE THE BUILDOUT OF A CENTRALIZED NAVIGATION RESOURCE FOR INDIVIDUALS, THEIR FAMILIES, AND PROVIDERS UTILIZING A WEB-BASED PLATFORM TO STREAMLINE THE REFERRAL PROCESS AND REDUCE THE ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN ON THE REFERRING PROVIDERS, 2) DEPLOY A MODEL OF RIGHT-SIZED CARE MANAGEMENT FOR INDIVIDUALS REGARDLESS OF PAYMENT, AND 3) IMPROVE BROOKLYNITES' QUALITY OF LIFE BY REDUCING BARRIERS TO ADDRESS HEALTH EQUITY. THE ANTICIPATED OUTCOMES INCLUDE: 1) INCREASED CONNECTIONS TO COMMUNITY-BASED CARE AND RESOURCES AND 2) INCREASED ENGAGEMENT IN PRIMARY/SPECIALTY/OUTPATIENT PHYSICAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CARE. THE CCB NAVIGATOR SERVES AS ONE-STOP SHOP FOR ALL REFERRALS WITHIN OUR GROWING NETWORK AND IS COMPRISED OF THREE PRIMARY COMPONENTS: A LIVING GUIDE OF RESOURCES FROM ACROSS THE NETWORK HOUSED IN A WEB-BASED PLATFORM, A PERSON-CENTERED CARE MANAGEMENT NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND MATCHING TOOL, AND THE NAVIGATION CENTER STAFF. THE CCB NAVIGATOR RECEIVES REFERRALS FROM CCB IPA PRACTICES, MAIMONIDES CLINICAL DEPARTMENTS, CBO PARTNERS, OTHER BROOKLYN-BASED HOSPITALS, AND THE COMMUNITY AT-LARGE. NAVIGATORS CONDUCT AN ASSESSMENT WITH PARTICIPANTS OVER THE PHONE, UTILIZING THE MMC TRANSLATION SERVICES AS NEEDED, FOCUSING ON BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH (FOOD AND HOUSING SECURITY, EMPLOYMENTS, EDUCATION, LEGAL, ETC.) AND, WITH THE SUPPORT OF TRAINED CARE COORDINATORS, CONNECT THEM TO OVER 200 SERVICES ALREADY AVAILABLE IN THEIR COMMUNITY. OUR AIM IN CONDUCTING ASSESSMENTS IS NOT STRICTLY THE COLLECTION OF INFORMATION REGARDING THE PERSON'S HEALTH, BUT ALSO AS A FIRST STEP IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE EMPATHETIC AND THERAPEUTIC RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN OUR TEAM AND THE PEOPLE WE SERVE. THE CCB NAVIGATOR AIMS TO DEVELOP AND EMBED AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO CARE MANAGEMENT THROUGHOUT MAIMONIDES AND THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES. THROUGH THE CONTINUED COLLABORATION WITH OUR COMMUNITY AND PROVIDER PARTNERS, AND PROVISION OF THIS RESOURCE, THIS INITIATIVE AIMS TO REACH APPROXIMATELY 7000 BROOKLYNITES AND THEIR FAMILIES WITH SIGNIFICANT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SOCIAL NEEDS OVER THE COURSE OF THE PROPOSED FUNDING YEAR. WE WILL SCREEN/ASSESS AT LEAST 50% (3500) OF THE INDIVIDUALS REFERRED TO THE CCB NAVIGATOR AND SUCCESSFULLY CONNECT 75% (2625) OF ASSESSED INDIVIDUALS TO CARE COORDINATION AND/OR COMMUNITY-BASED SERVICES. THE TEAM OF CARE NAVIGATORS WILL FOLLOW UP AND CONFIRM CONNECTION TO CARE FOR ALL INDIVIDUALS ASSESSED AND REFERRED TO CARE.

TEEN PREGNANCY PREVENTION PROGRAM - YOUTHRISE (RESPONSIBILITY, INTEGRITY, SELF-CONTROL = EMPOWERMENT) - NEED FOR THE PROJECT: AIMING FOR HEALTHY FAMILIES (AFHF) IS A COMMUNITY-BASED, NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT PROPOSES TO IMPLEMENT A TEEN PREGNANCY PREVENTION (TPP) AND POSITIVE YOUTH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (PYD). FOR 20 YEARS, AFHF HAS SERVED THOUSANDS OF YOUTH TO PROMOTE PREVENTION INITIATIVES. THE PROJECT NAME IS YOUTH RISE (RESPONSIBILITY, INTEGRITY, SELF-CONTROL = EMPOWERMENT). THE PROJECT WILL SERVE VULNERABLE YOUTH IN RURAL AND UNDER-SERVED COUNTIES IN THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF MISSISSIPPI (MS): LEE, PRENTISS, AND PONTOTOC. IN THESE TARGET COUNTIES NEARLY A QUARTER (22%) OF THE YOUTH LIVE IN POVERTY, COMPARED TO 17% NATIONALLY. ALL THREE COUNTIES HAVE HIGH SCHOOL DROPOUT RATES THAT EXCEED THE NATION’S 6%: LEE-9%, PRENTISS-9 % AND PONTOTOC- 9.2%. SPECIFIC TO TEEN SEXUAL BEHAVIORS, MS RANKS #1 OUT OF 50 STATES WITH THE HIGHEST TEEN BIRTH RATES AND #12 FOR THE MOST SEXUALLY ACTIVE YOUTH. ALL PROJECT TARGET COUNTIES HAVE TEEN BIRTH RATES (PER 1,000) THAT EXCEED THE NATIONAL RATE OF 16.7. TWO OF THE COUNTIES HAVE BIRTH RATES THAT NEARLY DOUBLE, WHILE ONE COUNTY HAS A BIRTH RATE THAT MORE THAN DOUBLES THE NATION: LEE (30.6), AND PRENTISS (29.8) AND PONTOTOC (40.5). MS RANKS AS #1 HAVING THE HIGHEST STD RATE IN THE NATION. PROPOSED SERVICES: THE GOAL OF YOUTH RISE IS TO REDUCE TEEN PREGNANCIES AND STDS/HIV BY EDUCATING YOUTH ON HOW TO VOLUNTARILY REFRAIN FROM RISKY SEXUAL ACTIVITY. THE YOUTH RISE PROGRAM SEEKS TO IMPLEMENT THE FOUR KEY ELEMENTS OF A TPP SCALE-UP PROJECT THAT ARE CRITICAL FOR AN EFFECTIVE TPP PROGRAM: 1) EVIDENCE BASED 2) COMMUNITY MOBILIZATION 3) REFERRALS TO OTHER SERVICES 4) SAFE AND SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENTS. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON ADDRESSING RISK FACTORS AT THE YOUTH, FAMILY, AND COMMUNITY LEVEL.

SBIR PHASE II: MANUFACTURING AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A SYNTHETIC PLATELET (SYNTHOPLATETM) TECHNOLOGY

RENOVATION OF THE WHITE MOUNTIAN APACHE TRIBES DETENTION CENTER

A NOVEL PLATELET-INSPIRED NANOTECHNOLOGY TO RESTORE HEMOSTASIS IN PATIENTS ON ANTIPLATELET AGENTS - PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT ANTIPLATELET THERAPY WITH P2Y12 INHIBITORS (CLOPIDOGREL, TICAGRELOR ETC.) IS WIDELY USED TO PREVENT THROMBOTIC EVENTS IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE. HOWEVER, THESE AGENTS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE RISK OF BLEEDING COMPLICATIONS, IMPACTING OVER 1.4 MILLION LIVES ANNUALLY IN THE UNITED STATES. THE LACK OF SPECIFIC REVERSAL AGENTS OFTEN LEADS TO DELAYED SURGICAL INTERVENTIONS AND SIGNIFICANT COMPLICATIONS, INCLUDING INCREASED TRANSFUSIONS, IN- HOSPITAL COMPLICATIONS, HIGHER MORTALITY, AND PROLONGED HOSPITAL STAYS. BLEEDING MANAGEMENT IS PARTICULARLY PROBLEMATIC IN PATIENTS WITH TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI), WITH 10-31% OF TBI PATIENTS TAKING P2Y12 INHIBITORS PRIOR TO ADMISSION. TBI PATIENTS ON P2Y12 INHIBITORS HAVE A SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED RISK OF INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGE AND MORTALITY, WITH A 50-60% INCREASED RISK OF SEVERE BLEEDING AND A 6-8-FOLD INCREASED 30-DAY MORTALITY WHEN REVERSAL OF ANTIPLATELET THERAPY IS NOT POSSIBLE. CURRENT HEMOSTATIC AGENTS, SUCH AS PROTHROMBIN COMPLEX CONCENTRATES, FIBRINOGEN CONCENTRATES, AND RECOMBINANT ACTIVATED FACTOR VII, ARE INEFFECTIVE IN RESCUING HEMOSTASIS IN THE PRESENCE OF P2Y12 INHIBITORS, LEAVING PLATELET TRANSFUSIONS AS THE ONLY STANDARD OF CARE. HOWEVER, PLATELET TRANSFUSIONS HAVE SIGNIFICANT LIMITATIONS, INCLUDING LIMITED EFFICACY, DONOR DEPENDENCE, SHORT SHELF-LIFE, IMMUNE RESPONSES, AND REFRACTORINESS. THERE IS A CRITICAL UNMET NEED FOR A READILY AVAILABLE, DONOR- INDEPENDENT THERAPEUTIC THAT CAN EFFECTIVELY RESTORE HEMOSTATIC FUNCTION IN TBI PATIENTS ON P2Y12 INHIBITORS. WE HYPOTHESIZE THAT SYNTHOPLATE (SP), A PLATELET-INSPIRED SYNTHETIC HEMOSTATIC NANOPARTICLE, CAN RESTORE HEMOSTASIS IN TBI PATIENTS ON P2Y12 INHIBITORS BY ENHANCING PLATELET ADHESION AND AGGREGATION AT THE INJURY SITE, THEREBY REDUCING HEMORRHAGE AND MORTALITY. OUR PRELIMINARY DATA DEMONSTRATE SP'S EFFICACY IN IMPROVING CLOT FORMATION UNDER P2Y12 INHIBITION IN VITRO, REDUCING BLEEDING BY 80%, AND ENHANCING SURVIVAL IN PRECLINICAL MODELS OF P2Y12 INHIBITOR-INDUCED HEMORRHAGE. AIM 1 WILL ESTABLISH SP'S DOSE-RESPONSE RELATIONSHIP IN CLINICALLY RELEVANT RAT MODELS OF P2Y12 INHIBITOR-INDUCED BLEEDING, INCLUDING TBI, EXAMINING BLOOD LOSS, HEMODYNAMICS, PLATELET FUNCTION, HEMOSTATIC OUTPUT AND NEUROLOGICAL OUTCOMES. AIM 2 WILL DETERMINE SP'S SAFETY PROFILE, PHARMACOKINETICS, AND ANY DRUG-DRUG INTERACTIONS IN THE PRESENCE OF P2Y12 INHIBITORS, IDENTIFYING THE THERAPEUTIC WINDOW AND INFORMING CLINICAL DOSING STRATEGIES. AIM 3 WILL DEVELOP A COMPREHENSIVE CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN, DEFINING THE REGULATORY PATHWAY, AND PHASE 1 TRIAL DESIGN FOR THE TARGET TBI POPULATION. THIS WORK WILL DELIVER A ROBUST PRECLINICAL EFFICACY, SAFETY, AND PHARMACOKINETIC PACKAGE, AND A STRATEGIC CLINICAL ROADMAP TO ADVANCE SP TO IND FILING AND CLINICAL EVALUATION IN THIS VULNERABLE TBI POPULATION WITH A SUBSTANTIAL UNMET NEED. BY REDUCING INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGE AND MORTALITY, SP HAS THE POTENTIAL TO TRANSFORM MANAGEMENT OF TBI IN THE SETTING OF P2Y12 INHIBITORS AND SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE PATIENT OUTCOMES. ESTABLISHING PROOF-OF-CONCEPT IN TBI WILL ENABLE FUTURE EXPANSION TO OTHER INDICATIONS WHERE P2Y12 INHIBITOR-ASSOCIATED BLEEDING IS A MAJOR CONCERN.

DEVELOPMENT OF A NOVEL INJECTABLE ANTIBIOTIC TO TREAT SERIOUS MULTIDRUG-RESISTANT GRAM-POSITIVE INFECTIONS - PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT WITHIN THE PAST DECADES, THE PREVALENCE OF ANTIBIOTIC-RESISTANT (AMR) GRAM-POSITIVE INFECTIONS HAVE INCREASED, AND GRAM-POSITIVE BACTERIA CAUSE THE MAJORITY OF NOSOCOMIAL INFECTIONS. IT WAS ESTIMATED THAT IN 2019 THERE WERE 4.95 MILLION DEATHS ASSOCIATED WITH AMR AND 1.27 MILLION DEATHS DIRECTLY ATTRIBUTABLE TO AMR. IN HIGH INCOME COUNTRIES, STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS WAS THE MOST FREQUENT PATHOGEN, ACCOUNTING FOR 26.1% OF THE DEATHS ATTRIBUTABLE TO AMR. TWO OF THE MOST PREVALENT AND/OR DIFFICULT-TO-TREAT PATHOGENS INCLUDE METHICILLIN RESISTANT S. AUREUS (MRSA) AND VANCOMYCIN-RESISTANT ENTEROCOCCUS (VRE); BOTH ARE ON THE LIST OF WHO AND CDC PRIORITY PATHOGENS WHICH INFORMS THE VITAL NEED FOR NEW AND EFFECTIVE ANTIBIOTICS. UNFORTUNATELY, THESE PATHOGENS CONTINUE TO DEVELOP NEW MULTI-DRUG RESISTANCE PATTERNS REDUCING THERAPEUTIC OPTIONS. FURTHERMORE, THE COVID- 19 PANDEMIC HAS SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASED THE RATES OF ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE, AND NOVEL THERAPEUTICS WILL BE NEEDED IN THE FUTURE TO COMBAT THESE SERIOUS AND PREVALENT HOSPITAL ACQUIRED INFECTIONS. AIMMAX THERAPEUTICS HAS DISCOVERED A NOVEL ANTIBIOTIC, AMX-2005, WITH BROAD SPECTRUM AND BEST-IN-CLASS ACTIVITY AGAINST MRSA AND VRE WITH POTENCY SUPERIOR TO LINEZOLID AND NO CROSS-RESISTANCE TO VANCOMYCIN. THIS ANTIBIOTIC HAS DEMONSTRATED RAPID BACTERICIDAL ACTIVITY IN IN VITRO TIME-KILL ASSAYS AT CONCENTRATIONS AS LOW AS 2X THE MIC AS WELL AS BACTERICIDAL EFFICACY IN THE IN VIVO MURINE NEUTROPENIC THIGH INFECTION MODEL. AMX-2005 SHOWS THE POTENTIAL TO BE A NEXT GENERATION THERAPEUTIC FROM A CLASS WITH AN ESTABLISHED HISTORY OF CLINICAL SAFETY AND LOW RATES OF RESISTANCE. COLLECTIVELY, THESE DATA PROVIDE A STRONG FOUNDATION OF SUPPORT FOR THIS PROPOSAL. THE OVERALL GOAL OF THIS PROPOSED PHASE 1 SBIR APPLICATION IS TO DEVELOP A NOVEL INTRAVENOUS FORMULATION OF AMX-2005 AND GENERATE PROOF-OF-CONCEPT DATA TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF A THERAPEUTIC FOR DIFFICULT-TO-TREAT INDICATIONS WITH HIGH UNMET NEEDS. IN AIM 1, WE WILL CONDUCT FURTHER IN VITRO MICROBIOLOGY STUDIES TO INVESTIGATE ACTIVITY AND ATTRIBUTES ESSENTIAL TO SUCCESSFUL THERAPEUTICS FOR SERIOUS INFECTIONS, INCLUDING AN EVALUATION OF THE POTENTIAL FOR RESISTANCE DEVELOPMENT. IN AIM 2, WE WILL DEVELOP A NOVEL IV FORMULATION OF AMX-2005 THROUGH THE USE OF INNOVATIVE MODERN EXCIPIENTS AND FORMULATION TECHNOLOGY. OUR TOP TWO FORMULATIONS WILL THEN UNDERGO RIGOROUS SAFETY ASSESSMENTS INCLUDING IN VITRO COMPATIBILITY TESTS WITH PLASMA AND BLOOD, VEIN IRRITATION STUDY AT THE INJECTION SITE TO ENSURE SAFETY AND TOLERABILITY OF THE LEAD IV FORMULATION, FOLLOWED BY DETERMINATION OF MAXIMUM TOLERATED DOSE IN MICE. THE PK PROFILES OF THE TOP FORMULATION WILL BE ASSESSED TO DETERMINE THE MOST SUITABLE DOSING REGIMENS FOR EFFICACY STUDIES IN AIM 3, WHERE WE WILL ASSESS THE ACTIVITY AND POTENCY OF FORMULATED IV AMX-2005 IN MICE MODELS OF SEPTICEMIA AND THIGH INFECTION AGAINST MDR STRAINS OF MRSA OR VRE. FINALLY, WE WILL CONDUCT A MOUSE PK STUDY TO ASSESS TISSUE CONCENTRATIONS OF AMX-2005. IF SUCCESSFUL, THESE DATA WILL INFORM INDICATION SELECTION AND A TARGET PRODUCT PROFILE TO SUPPORT A SUBSEQUENT PHASE 2 SBIR APPLICATION IN WHICH BOTH IV AND ORAL DOSAGE FORMS OF AMX-2005 WILL BE DEVELOPED.

OPTIMIZATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NOVEL ANTIFUNGAL PEPTIDES - PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT INVASIVE CANDIDIASIS IS A DISEASE ASSOCIATED WITH SIGNIFICANT MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY, WITH ONLY 3 CLASSES OF ANTIFUNGALS AVAILABLE FOR TREATMENT. WHILE CANDIDA ALBICANS REMAINS THE MOST COMMON SPECIES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS DISEASE, OTHER NON-ALBICANS CANDIDA SPECIES ARE EMERGING OR GROWING IN PREVALENCE. THE GLOBAL EMERGENCE OF CANDIDA AURIS, A SPECIES WITH A HIGH RATE OF MULTI-DRUG RESISTANCE CAPABLE OF NOSOCOMIAL TRANSMISSION, AND REPORTS OF CANDIDA GLABRATA INFECTIONS RESISTANT TO BOTH AZOLES AND ECHINOCANDINS, HIGHLIGHT THE CRITICAL NEED FOR NEW CLASSES OF ANTIFUNGAL DRUGS THAT CAN COMBAT RESISTANCE AND TREAT INVASIVE FUNGAL DISEASES. AIMMAX THERAPEUTICS IS DEVELOPING A NOVEL CLASS OF PROMISING ANTIFUNGAL PEPTIDES THAT ARE DIFFERENTIATED FROM OTHER ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDES IN DEVELOPMENT. PEPTIDES HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED AS PROMISING THERAPEUTICS BECAUSE OF THEIR NOVEL MECHANISMS OF ACTION, RAPID CIDALITY, LOW PROPENSITY FOR RESISTANCE DEVELOPMENT AND LOW POTENTIAL FOR DRUG-DRUG INTERACTIONS. HOWEVER, THERE ARE CERTAIN LIABILITIES ASSOCIATED WITH HISTORICAL ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDES AS SYSTEMIC THERAPEUTICS, INCLUDING PROPENSITY FOR LYSIS OF HUMAN CELL MEMBRANES CAUSING TOXICITY AND DEGRADATION BY CIRCULATING PROTEASES AND PEPTIDASES. OUR PRELIMINARY STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT: 1) SEVERAL OF THE AIMMAX PEPTIDES HAVE ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY ACROSS CANDIDA SPECIES, INCLUDING ACTIVITY AGAINST RESISTANT STRAINS, 2) THIS ACTIVITY IS RAPIDLY FUNGICIDAL IN NATURE, 3) THERE IS NO CELL LYSIS OR INTRACELLULAR CYTOTOXICITY AGAINST HUMAN CELLS AND THEY ARE WELL-TOLERATED FOLLOWING REPEAT DOSING IN VIVO, 4) THEY ARE SALT TOLERANT AND RETAIN ACTIVITY UNDER PHYSIOLOGICAL CONDITIONS, AND 5) THEY CAN BE MODIFIED TO INCREASE STABILITY AGAINST PROTEOLYTIC DEGRADATION AND DEMONSTRATE GOOD PLASMA EXPOSURE IN VIVO. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS PROPOSAL IS TO OPTIMIZE THE PEPTIDES BY ENHANCING ANTIFUNGAL ACTIVITY AND MICROBIOLOGICAL PROFILE, WHILE MAINTAINING SAFETY (NO TOXICITY) AND MINIMIZING PROTEOLYTIC INSTABILITY AND UNDESIRABLE PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES. THESE STUDIES ARE ESSENTIAL TO SELECT POTENT ANTIFUNGAL PEPTIDES TO COMBAT RESISTANCE AND ENSURE THAT THEY ARE “DRUGGABLE” FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT. THE OBJECTIVES OF THE PROPOSAL WILL BE ACHIEVED BY RATIONAL PEPTIDE DESIGN AND STRUCTURE-ACTIVITY RELATIONSHIP ANALYSIS USING DATA FROM A SERIES OF IN VITRO AND IN VIVO SCREENING ASSESSMENTS. PEPTIDES SELECTED BASED ON PRE-DETERMINED CRITERIA WILL UNDERGO EXPANDED EVALUATIONS. TOGETHER, THESE STUDIES WILL FORM THE BASIS OF CANDIDATE SELECTION FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT AND IND-ENABLING WORK IN A PHASE 2 SBIR APPLICATION. THE ULTIMATE GOAL OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO DEVELOP A BROAD- SPECTRUM ANTIFUNGAL DRUG THAT WILL ADDRESS THE RISING THREAT OF DRUG RESISTANCE IN CANDIDA SPECIES AND PROVIDE AN ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT OPTION FOR LIFE-THREATENING INVASIVE CANDIDIASIS.
