US Trial Evaluates Intranasal Foralumab In 48 Patients

The trial, known as INFORM-MS, is the first Phase 2 placebo-controlled study of intranasal foralumab. It marks an important milestone in the clinical development of this anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody for neurodegenerative and neuroinflammatory diseases.

The multi-center study has enrolled 48 patients across multiple U.S. sites who are receiving either one of two intranasal foralumab dose levels or placebo over a 12-week treatment period. The trial will assess outcomes using PET imaging for microglial activation, MRI scans, clinical evaluations, and biomarker analysis.

Six-Month Extension Phase To Assess Benefits

After the completion of the blinded phase, all participants, including those initially assigned to placebo, will be eligible to receive intranasal foralumab in a six-month open-label extension (OLE) phase. The extension will assess the drug’s long-term safety and whether its benefits are sustained in patients with na-SPMS.

Gabriele Cerrone, executive chairman and founder of Tiziana Life Sciences, said, “Intranasal delivery offers a novel, non-invasive route that targets the brain’s immune mechanisms directly.”
