Sensorion (FR0012596468 – ALSEN) a pioneering
clinical-stage biotechnology company which specializes in the
development of novel therapies to restore, treat and prevent within
the field of hearing loss disorders, today announces that promising
new data and analysis results from the SENS-401 following cochlear
implantation Phase 2a clinical study will be presented at the 17th
International Conference on Cochlear Implants and Other Implantable
Technologies (CI2024) taking place on July 10-13, 2024, in
Vancouver, Canada.
On this occasion, Professor Stephen O'Leary, M.D., Ph.D., will
present the results of the Phase 2a clinical trial of SENS-401 in
the prevention of residual hearing loss after cochlear
implantation, of which he is the principal investigator. The study
is developed in collaboration with partner Cochlear Limited, the
global leader in implantable hearing devices.
The presentation will take place on Saturday, July 13, 2024, at
9.40am (PDT) at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

Post Cochlear™ Nucleus® CI622 Implantation and Detection of
SENS-401 in Perilymph: Findings from a Phase IIa Clinical Trial
Investigating Repeated Oral Administration of SENS-401 in Implant
Patients
Address: 1055 Canada Place,
Vancouver, British Columbia
In 2017, Sensorion and Cochlear signed a research collaboration
agreement on SENS-401, under which Cochlear has an option,
exercisable once the data of the complete readout of this study is
available, to negotiate with Sensorion the rights for a global
license to distribute SENS-401 for applications and uses related to
certain implantable devices.
About SENS-401 SENS-401 (Arazasetron), Sensorion’s
clinical stage lead drug candidate, is an orally available small
molecule that aims to protect and preserve inner ear tissue from
damage responsible of progressive or sequelae hearing impairment.
Sensorion currently develops SENS-401 in a Phase 2a for the
prevention of residual hearing loss in patients scheduled for
cochlear implantation and in a Phase 2 clinical trial for the
prevention of Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity. SENS-401 has been
granted Orphan Drug Designation by the EMA in Europe for the
treatment of sudden sensorineural hearing loss, and by the FDA in
the U.S. for the prevention of platinum-induced ototoxicity in
pediatric population.
About Sensorion Sensorion is a pioneering clinical-stage
biotech company, which specializes in the development of novel
therapies to restore, treat, and prevent hearing loss disorders, a
significant global unmet medical need. Sensorion has built a unique
R&D technology platform to expand its understanding of the
pathophysiology and etiology of inner ear related diseases,
enabling it to select the best targets and mechanisms of action for
drug candidates. It has two gene therapy programs aimed at
correcting hereditary monogenic forms of deafness, developed in the
framework of its broad strategic collaboration focused on the
genetics of hearing with the Institut Pasteur. SENS-501 (OTOF-GT)
currently being developed in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial, targets
deafness caused by mutations of the gene encoding for otoferlin and
GJB2-GT targets hearing loss related to mutations in GJB2 gene to
potentially address important hearing loss segments in adults and
children. The Company is also working on the identification of
biomarkers to improve diagnosis of these underserved illnesses.
Sensorion’s portfolio also comprises clinical-stage small molecule
programs for the treatment and prevention of hearing loss
disorders. Sensorion’s clinical-stage portfolio includes one Phase
2 product: SENS-401 (Arazasetron) progressing in a planned Phase 2
proof of concept clinical study of SENS-401 in Cisplatin-Induced
Ototoxicity (CIO) and, with partner Cochlear Limited, in a study of
SENS-401 in patients scheduled for cochlear implantation. A Phase 2
study of SENS-401 was also completed in Sudden Sensorineural
Hearing Loss (SSNHL) in January 2022. www.sensorion.com
