Clinical Trial Summary

PEP03 is a new chemical entity developed as a highly selective, potent, and orally active 5-LO inhibitor. PEP03 exerts its action by blocking the generation of both cysteinyl LTs and LTB4. These LTs have been associated with the inflammatory response in the lung and with the clinical sequelae, including bronchospasm. Preclinical pharmacological in- vitro, ex-vivo and in-vivo testing indicates that PEP03 has multiple beneficial actions including prevention of bronchoconstriction, and reduction of vascular leakage, cellular infiltration, and bronchial hyperresponsiveness.

Clinical studies in asthmatic patients indicate that PEP03 improved FEV1 and other secondary endpoints, such as morning and evening peak flow, daytime and nighttime symptoms score, beta-agonist use, physician’s and patient’s global impression of change. Since leukotrienes have been suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of COPD, this study is designed to explore the clinical utility of PEP03 for the treatment of moderate COPD.6; 7; 8; 9
