New York, May 10, 2024 - PRISM MarketView - After discovering an error that might have rendered its Phase 3 study of buntanetap in early Parkinson’s disease (PD) “worthless”, Annovis Bio, Inc. (NYSE: ANVS) spent two months untangling the issue that led to too many plasma samples being completely free of buntanetap. The company’s share price was up 25.10% at the close of Thursday’s trading session following the news.
“When we reached the point of unblinding the data for the PD Phase III study, we discovered an unexpected issue: too many plasma samples showed no presence of buntanetap. We were expecting 33% blank samples from the placebo group, but we saw over 50% blank samples. We were afraid that we had mixed up bottles and that patients weren’t given what they were supposed to.”
Maria Maccecchini, Ph.D., Founder, President, and CEO of Annovis
Dr. Maccecchini today announced successful completion of data cleaning for the study and said that the company expects to release topline efficacy data in June.
