Dicot AB (publ): Dicot reports good results from preclinical toxicology studies
Uppsala, October 11, 2022. Dicot reports that the preclinical toxicology studies that are now being conducted, so far show that the drug candidate LIB-01 has a good safety profile.
Dicot is now conducting several toxicology studies within the framework of the preclinical program with the drug candidate LIB-01. Studies of the toxicity of a drug candidate are a necessary and important part of the authorities' approval process for start of clinical studies in humans.
Dicot has performed studies with a subcutaneous formulation and now the first toxicology study with an oral formulation has been conducted. LIB-01 has so far shown to be well tolerated with a good safety profile and no signs of adverse effects have been seen in the animal studies.
A number of studies remain to be conducted before the company's toxicology program is complete.
"These results are very promising and are consistent with our expectation that LIB-01 has a good safety profile. We are now working further with great confidence," comments Elin Trampe, CEO of Dicot.
