Hoth Therapeutics Engages Altasciences to Perform Key Study for HT-KIT Cancer Fighting Therapeutic

Originally published by Hoth Therapeutics via PR Newswire on February 26, 2024

NEW YORK , Feb. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Hoth Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: HOTH), a patient-focused biopharmaceutical company, announced today that it has completed bioanalytical method development under its prior agreement with Altasciences and plans to further engage Altasciences to perform a key study of mouse blood and plasma analysis from samples collected in Hoth's sponsored scientific research conducted at NC State University.  The blood and plasma samples collected are part of a dose response study in a humanized mouse model. The upcoming study will use the newly validated bioanalytical method developed at Altasciences to test the amount of HT-KIT from the dose response study and help determine how long HT-KIT remains in the blood stream post dosing.

"We continue to make strides in moving HT-KIT from the lab to patients and this further analysis will help us with that process as a final step in the preclinical development that allows us to finalizing the protocols in our upcoming IND-enabling," stated Robb Knie , Chief Executive Officer. "We are pleased to further engage Altasciences on these studies given its great reputation for full-service solutions including preclinical safety testing, clinical pharmacology and bioanalysis."

Achieve Enhanced API Formulation Development Using This Technique


 

Insoluble APIs, Meet Your Match!

Poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) made from hydrophobic, amorphous-solid, or crystalline-type materials are highly manageable when you opt for nanomilling ― a complex and game-changing process that pulverizes and stabilizes particles.

Hear more on the topic from Andrew Buis, Senior Formulation Scientist at Altasciences, in this short video.

If you have any questions about nanomilling or need help formulating your APIs, speak with one of our experts today.

Intricacies of Conducting Juvenile Toxicology Studies


 

The Development Path to Safer Pediatric Trials

Juvenile animal toxicity studies are fundamental in gathering safety data and identifying potential negative side effects on postnatal growth and development―ones that may be missed in standard toxicity assessments. These evaluations also provide crucial safety data required to carry out pediatric clinical trials with young patients, particularly in cases where toxicities that are difficult to assess in humans are a concern.

Our experts can advise on and design the best testing strategy for juvenile toxicity studies. Watch this educational video for guidance on:

     •   choosing the appropriate animal model for these types of studies; 
     •   the role of miniature swine in juvenile toxicity studies; and
     •   insights on study designs and endpoints.
