Management also provided an update on the phase 2, investigator-sponsored proof-of-concept clinical trial for IMU-838 in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), being conducted at the Mayo Clinic. The single-arm, open label, exploratory study, for which Immunic is providing the study medication, planned to enroll 30 patients with PSC, aged 18 to 75 years, who receive 30 mg of IMU-838 once daily for a period of six months. Together with the investigators, Immunic determined to readout data from the 18 patients who were enrolled prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, as patients with PSC are considered high risk for COVID-19 infections and are advised to avoid the unnecessary social contacts required in a clinical trial. Immunic currently expects the data to be available during the first quarter of 2021, instead of in the fourth quarter of 2020, as previously announced. This delay is due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on those clinical sites conducting the trial.
