Summary

Xfibra, Inc. is conducting a Phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, first-in-human study of the safety, tolerability, and physiologically-based pharmacokinetics (PK) of single and multiple ascending doses of XFB19 in healthy adult volunteers.

Conditions

  • Focus of the Study: Safety of XFB19

Interventions

DRUG

XFB19

The site-specific phosphorylation of the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein β (C/EBPβ) on Threonine266 (phospho-C/EBPβThr266) is critical for the priming and activation pathways, signals 1 and 2 of the NLRP3 inflammasome, that result in its full induction, causal to systemic inflammation critical to the morbidity and mortality of inflammatory/fibrotic diseases. Phospho-C/EBPβThr266 is also essential for the mesenchymal myofibroblastic cell cycle checkpoint failure and transition that results in the inappropriate tissue repair and pathological tissue fibrosis. XFB19 is a first-in-class, rationally-designed drug. It is homeostatic, and in preclinical studies, effectively, safely, and selectively inhibits phospho-C/EBPβThr266, the pathological inflammatory-fibrotic complications of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and synergistic myofibroblastic transition, reversing the pathology towards homeostasis, and fulfilling the precision medicine objectives.
