Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, has released data from its HYPER-H21-3 human study. The company noted that data from its simulated pulmonary hypertension clinical study indicate positive safety and efficacy findings. Specifically, results show a tendency (p=0.1) during 15 minutes of simulated low levels of oxygen (hypoxia) for reduced pulmonary artery systolic pressure (“PASP”) with DehydraTECH-CBD treatment versus placebo. According to the announcement, PASP was significantly attenuated by about 5 mmHg or 41% overall (p=0.045) in male participants, which could indicate potential differences by sex in responsiveness to CBD treatment under hypoxic stress conditions. The company noted that this data supports similar findings from previous successful studies, all of which support Lexaria’s anticipated move to begin the process of seeking approval for the technology from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The company has gathered significant evidence of DehydraTECH-CBD’s ability to reduce blood pressure across a wide variety of situations. The data from the most recent study will be analyzed in order to determine the direction of the company’s upcoming research looking into the efficacy of DehydraTECH-CBD use for the management of elevations in pulmonary arterial pressure under hypoxic conditions, related hypoxemic pathologies and pulmonary hypertension.

• Lexaria Bioscience, the global innovator behind DehydraTECH drug delivery technology, has continuously focused on research into its patented technology
• The company has conducted both in vitro testing and in vivo animal and human testing to evaluate the ability of DehydraTECH to improve the delivery of various APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients)
• Lexaria has multiple other studies lined up aimed at building sufficient data to effect meaningful industry and/or regulatory progress and sustainable increases in valuation

As it moves toward national and international implementation and commercialization of its patented DehydraTECH(TM) drug delivery technology, Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX) is aware of the need to continuously advance its understanding of the technology’s capabilities and potential applications. This informs the company’s long-held commitment to its applied research and development (“R&D”) programs, which are exclusively designed to “reduce future risks of both commercial and regulatory failure by identifying weaknesses as early as possible; and to enhance the likelihood of future commercial and regulatory success by thoroughly understanding strengths and weaknesses, also as early as possible” (https://cnw.fm/vY9V1).

Lexaria’s DehydraTECH technology combines a lipophilic active pharmaceutical ingredient (“API”) with a carrier particle, then it is dehydrated and finally rendered as a liquid or powder. Through the years, Lexaria has proven that DehydraTECH results in additional improvements, including speed of onset, increased brain absorption, increased bioavailability, and reduced drug administration costs, thanks to extensive research the company has continuously undertaken since 2015.

So far, the research journey has involved a series of controlled and well-designed in vitro pre-clinical testing and in vivo animal and human clinical studies, as well as all-encompassing molecular characterization investigations, which have been completed on APIs such as antiviral drugs, cannabinoids, nicotine and nicotine analogs, PDE5 inhibitors and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (“NSAIDs”). 

The company’s in vitro pre-clinical test, an absorption study, was performed to investigate unidirectional cannabidiol (“CBD”) permeability using a human epi-intestinal tissue model with multiple formulations in the presence of simulated intestinal fluid. According to Lexaria, the study evidenced a 325% and 499%, on average, in intestinal tissue permeability compared to two control groups.

Lexaria has also undertaken extensive clinical research starting in 2016. Multiple independent, well-designed, and controlled human studies conducted between 2016 and 2017, for example, corroborated the results from the in vitro studies. Since then, the company has undertaken numerous other studies evaluating the performance of various APIs processed using the DehydraTECH technology. For instance, Lexaria has investigated DehydraTECH-CBD as a potential treatment for hypertension and heart disease in multiple human studies, DehydraTECH-processed nicotine (animal study), and antivirals.  

“Performance of total bioabsorption (directly and indirectly through surrogate biomarkers), blood-brain-barrier delivery characteristics, rapidity of onset, consumer appeal, metabolite production (an indication of first-pass liver bypass), and quality of effectiveness have all been quantified,” Lexaria’s website says of the investigation parameters (https://cnw.fm/A2bcT).

Still, Lexaria is unrelenting in its pursuit of comprehensive datasets that would answer many questions the company expects to face from potential commercial partners or regulators and is, in fact, expanding its research. Last month, Lexaria kicked off an animal study to evaluate DehydraTECH-CBD as a potential treatment to inhibit seizure activity (https://cnw.fm/LLYWY), the first in a series of additional planned animal studies tentatively set to commence this year (https://cnw.fm/hzfZQ). Others include: 

• HOR-A22-1: an animal study to evaluate DehydraTECH’s ability to improve the delivery characteristics of estrogen
• DEM-A22-1: an efficacy study to investigate DehydraTECH-CBD with and without nicotine for the potential treatment of dementia
• RHEUM-A22-1: an efficacy study to evaluate the ability of DehydraTECH-CBD to potentially impact the treatment of rheumatoid disease
• DIAB-A22-1: an efficacy study to investigate DehydraTECH-CBD’s ability to potentially affect the treatment of diabetes

“DehydraTECH is not an EVOLUTION of existing technology – it is a REVOLUTIONARY new drug delivery platform. Expecting entire industries to change overnight to adopt a revolutionary process is not realistic: it takes time, evidence, and a lot of positive results to overcome industry inertia. We have long been hopeful that, before the end of 2022, we will have built sufficient data to effect meaningful industry and/or regulatory progress and sustainable increases in valuation,” Lexaria CEO Chris Bunka wrote in a recent letter to shareholders.

And with the planned and ongoing human and animal studies, Lexaria hopes to achieve precisely this.

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ: LEXX) recently released positive results from an animal study that evaluated DehydraTECH(TM) processing of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor (“PDE5 inhibitor”) sildenafil as potential use in the management of erectile dysfunction. “A clear trend emerged during the course of the study – a faster and higher overall delivery of sildenafil into the bloodstream. During the animal study, it was determined that in as little as four minutes of dosing, the DehydraTECH formulation of sildenafil delivered 74% more of the PDE5 inhibitor into the bloodstream on average than the concentration-matched, generic control formulation. Within seven minutes, the DehydraTECH-sildenafil formulation achieved a higher average blood level than the generic control reached at any point during the study,” reads a recent article. “The most well-known sildenafil product on the market is Viagra(R). The medication is bioavailable orally at approximately 40%, with the most common complaint by consumers that it is slow to act. The findings of Lexaria’s animal study are a first step to developing faster and better acting sildenafil oral formulations.”

Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (NASDAQ: LEXX) achieved myriad milestones in 2021, with CEO Chris Bunka noting in an annual letter to shareholders that January 2021 marked the birth of a modern version of the company. A recent article contains excerpts from the letter, in which Bunka writes, “During 2021, we completed research & development (‘R&D’) and validating work equal to or greater than all the combined amount previously completed since 2018! We have conducted studies across broad areas of interest but also concentrated in specific areas where we have supportive data,” In 2021, Lexaria’s most significant area of investigation was DehydraTECH(TM)-processed cannabidiol (“CBD”) for the potential treatment of hypertension and heart disease. And starting in April or possibly sooner, the company plans to begin dosing in its largest-ever hypertension study. Before this spring, Lexaria also plans to launch a complex animal study evaluating DehydraTECH-CBD as a potential treatment to inhibit seizure activity. The company will also pursue efficacy modeling through 2022 with DehydraTECH-CBD in animals for other possible therapeutic indications, in addition to launching a human study evaluating DehydraTECH’s ability to promote nicotine delivery characteristics in oral tissue. “The goal of our three major studies is to generate sufficient data to support either regulated IND-type applications or to stimulate corporate partnering within their appropriate market sectors. We are optimistic of positive results — noting that science can be unpredictable — and, if so, expect 2022 to be our most exciting year ever!”

Since 2016, DehydraTECH has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to increase bio-absorption with cannabinoids and nicotine by 5-10x and, in some instances with cannabinoids by as much as 27x compared to standard industry formulations, reduce time of onset from one to two hours to minutes, and mask unwanted tastes. The technology is also being evaluated for orally administered anti-viral drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (“NSAIDs”), PDE5 inhibitors and more. DehydraTECH has also evidenced an ability to deliver some drugs more effectively across the blood brain barrier. Lexaria operates a licensed in-house research laboratory and holds a robust intellectual property portfolio with 23 patents granted and over 50 patents pending worldwide.
