Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, is reporting glucose reduction and weight-loss results in a testing of its wholly owned and patented DehydraTECH-CBD formulation. According to the announcement, when administered to rodents in an eight-week study, DehydraTech-CBD resulted in weight loss of 7% and a reduction of 19.9% (p<0.05) in blood glucose. As a result, Lexaria has now signed contracts to begin a large, multiweek animal study that will substantially progress its DehydraTECH-GLP-1 and DehydraTECH-CBD weight-loss investigations. In addition, the announcement also noted that the company had published results of a human study, which showed that a single 7 mg semaglutide dose from Rybelsus(R) processed with DehydraTECH, was absorbed at a significantly higher level than without DehydraTECH processing; results of that testing showed that the treatment also managed blood glucose levels more effectively without any blood glucose spiking after eating.

“Together, these discoveries strongly support additional investigations, including determining whether daily dosing of DehydraTECH-GLP-1 might result in sustained higher concentrations of GLP-1 in blood over an extended treatment duration than without DehydraTECH processing and whether such a higher blood concentration might result in greater weight loss over time; and determining whether DehydraTECH-CBD, specially formulated for diabetes control and weight loss, alone and/or in conjunction with DehydraTECH-GLP-1, might also result in greater weight loss and/or blood glucose control over time,” said the company in the press release. “Manufacturing of the test articles for 8 of the 12 arms of the new animal study has already been completed, and dosing in those arms will commence as soon as the third-party laboratory is able to do so, expected to begin within 45 days.”

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, is reporting additional positive interim results from its human pilot study evaluating DehydraTECH(TM) technology for the oral delivery of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (“GLP-1”) drug semaglutide, available commercially as Rybelsus(R). According to the report, DehydraTECH-powered semaglutide sustained lower levels of blood glucose from baseline including nearly 10 times lower after 24 hours as well as lower blood-glucose spikes after eating. The company noted that this was the first-ever DehydraTECH test with a “large molecule” drug. According to the report, the study was conducted by a prominent university research center comparing a single 7 mg semaglutide dose of a Rybelsus tablet (the control dose) to a matching dose from Rybelsus that had been compound formulated in capsule form using Lexaria’s DehydraTECH processing technology enhancements. Specifically, the control group showed reduced blood glucose levels by between 1.3% and 6.7% relative to the time zero baseline during the first 100 minutes of the study with the DehydraTECH GLP-1 group indicating reduced blood glucose levels by between 2.9% and 14.6% relative to baseline during that same timeframe; the report noted that even 24 hours after dose administration, the blood glucose levels were reduced in the DehydraTECH GLP-1 group by 6.3% relative to baseline while the blood glucose level evidenced in the control group was only reduced by 0.67%, evidencing nearly a tenfold improvement with the DehydraTECH GLP-1. DehydraTECH is a patented drug delivery formulation and processing platform technology. Lexaria developed the technology and is evaluating it for a variety of beneficial molecules. The formulation is designed to improve the way active molecules enter the bloodstream upon oral ingestion.

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, today announced positive interim results from a human pilot study currently underway evaluating DehydraTECH(TM) technology for the oral delivery of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (“GLP-1”) drug semaglutide, which is available commercially in the branded product Rybelsus(R). A prominent university research center is performing the study, comparing a single 7 mg semaglutide dose of a Rybelsus tablet (“control”) to a matching dose from Rybelsus that had been compound formulated in capsule form using DehydraTECH processing technology enhancements (“DehydraTECH GLP-1”). According to the update, blood was examined by a third-party laboratory using a validated bioassay 18 times over the first 10 hours and once again 24 hours after dose administration. Subjects were monitored in the study site over the entire 10-hour duration post dosing, and then allowed to depart, resume normal activities and return to the study site the following day for performance of the 24-hour evaluation time point.

The first post-baseline blood was sampled 20 minutes after oral administration and, at that point in time, the DehydraTECH GLP-1 blood semaglutide level was ~125% higher than that of the control. At each of the 19 blood sample time points, the DehydraTECH GLP-1 blood semaglutide levels were higher than control levels. Further, the DehydraTECH GLP-1 peak was achieved faster at 120 minutes (as compared to 160 minutes for the control) and with a 16% higher blood semaglutide level than the control. Notably, the blood semaglutide levels achieved with the control were proportional to those achieved by other researchers in similar single dose cross-over Rybelsus development informing studies, further suggesting that the blood semaglutide level gains evidenced by the DehydraTECH GLP-1 formulation were distinct relative to the commercial product.

Lexaria Bioscience (NASDAQ: LEXX, LEXXW), a global innovator in drug-delivery platforms, has granted a new global, exclusive license to SulfoSyn Limited; the license is for the exclusive global use of all nonpharmaceutical applications of Lexaria’s proprietary DehydraTECH-sulforaphane, including the right to authorize sublicenses. According to the announcement, Lexaria has already received an up-front cash payment, and the agreement outlines minimumongoing payments, royalties and manufacturing revenues. Nonpharmaceutical uses could include supplements, additives, foods, dietary ingredients and more. In addition to the license agreement, the two companies have a broader agreement that, for at least the next two years, Lexaria will conduct certain DehydraTECH-related manufacturing operations at its U.S. partner facility on behalf of SulfoSyn, which should also result in an increase in revenue to Lexaria. The announcement noted that the two companies started exploring the applicability of DehydraTECH upon sulforaphane late last year; results of that indicate that DehydraTECH confers certain superior qualities upon the sulforaphane molecule that are of commercial interest.
