In addition, Enzo Therapeutics is planning the initiation of a Phase II clinical trial to evaluate EGS21, involving an immunomodulatory candidate drug based on glucosylceramide for the management of Crohn's Disease. A paper on glucosylceramide was presented last May, suggesting that this drug could be an important candidate in the treatment of immune mediated diseases, such as Crohn's, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. Since Gaucher Disease is a condition in which glucosylceramide accumulates in the liver, the scientists concluded that its accumulation protects the patient against immune mediated attack on the liver. |
