Sound Pharma to Present at Upcoming Life Science Investor Conferences
SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 8, 2025-- Sound Pharmaceuticals is pleased to announce that it has been invited to present its R&D and financing goals at four upcoming life science and healthcare investor conferences over the next month. 24 th Annual Needham Healthcare Conference on April 9-10 25 th Life Sciences Innovation Northwest on April 23-24 Citibank Biotech Private Access Investor Day on April 24 Morgan Stanley Inaugural Private Company & Investor Day on May 5 Dr. Jonathan Kil, Co-Founder and CEO will provide an update on SPI-1005, the novel oral anti-inflammatory, the first investigational drug to achieve its co-primary endpoints in a pivotal Phase 3 randomized double blinded placebo-controlled trial (RCTs) to treat Meniere's disease (STOPMD-3). There are no FDA approved drugs for the treatment of hearing loss, tinnitus, dizziness or vertigo, the primary symptoms of MD. SPI-1005 has achieved positive safety and efficacy results in five different RCTs involving MD, acute noise-induced hearing loss, and aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity. About SPI-1005 SPI-1005 is an investigational new drug that contains ebselen, a new chemical entity that mimics and induces glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity. GPx1 is a critical enzyme that repairs injured and dying cells in the inner ear, retina, prefrontal cortex of brain, lung, and kidney, and is often reduced during and after exposure to environmental insults or aging. Consequently, neuroinflammation can progress throughout the peripheral and central nervous system leading to neurodegeneration. SPI-1005 is being developed for several neurotologic indications including Meniere's disease (hearing loss, tinnitus, intermittent dizziness, and episodic vertigo), noise-induced hearing loss (including tinnitus) and two types of ototoxicity (hearing loss, tinnitus, dizziness, or vertigo) caused by aminoglycoside antibiotics (such as tobramycin or amikacin) or platinum-based chemotherapy (such as cisplatin or carboplatin). To date, no significant drug-drug interactions have been observed across multiple study populations including Meniere's disease, and patients with cystic fibrosis, bipolar mania, and treatment-resistant depression. Thirteen SPI-1005 trials have been completed treating 790 patients with 400+ more anticipated later this year. About Sound Pharmaceuticals Sound Pharma is a private biotechnology company studying SPI-1005 under six active Investigational New Drug Applications involving several neurotologic indications including the prevention and treatment of aminoglycoside-induced ototoxicity co-funded by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and hearing preservation in cochlear implant patients co-funded by MED-EL.
