MissionIRNewsBreaks – AzurRx BioPharma Inc. (NASDAQ: AZRX) Advancing MS1819 in Fight to Improve Treatment of EPI in CF, CP Patients

AzurRx BioPharma (NASDAQ: AZRX) is focused on the development of its lead drug candidate, MS1819, for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (“EPI”) in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (“CF”) and chronic pancreatitis (“CP”). While CF is a relatively rare genetic disease, innovative and effective therapies are needed. CF is a dangerous condition that affects multiple body functions and organs, putting patients at risk of developing severe life-threatening illnesses. Technological advances have greatly increased the life span for CF patients. While children with CF rarely made it to elementary school age in the 1950s, the median age of survival for a CF patient is now around 47 years, with many patients living into their 60s (https://ibn.fm/RQcG4). A recent article discusses AZRX’s positioning amid the work in targeted treatments. It reads, “Due to the efforts of companies such as AzurRx BioPharma, the life span and quality of life of CF patients could be further improved. AzurRx’s lead product is MS1819, a recombinant lipase that could potentially change the treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency in CF and CP patients.”
