Tonix is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on
discovering, licensing, acquiring and developing therapeutics to
treat and prevent human disease and alleviate suffering. Tonix’s
portfolio is composed of central nervous system (CNS), rare
disease, immunology and infectious disease product candidates.
Tonix’s CNS portfolio includes both small molecules and biologics
to treat pain, neurologic, psychiatric and addiction conditions.
Tonix’s lead CNS candidate, TNX-102 SL (cyclobenzaprine HCl
sublingual tablet), is in mid-Phase 3 development for the
management of fibromyalgia with interim data expected in the second
quarter of 2023. TNX-102 SL is also being developed to treat Long
COVID, a chronic post-acute COVID-19 condition, for which a Phase 2
study was initiated in the third quarter of 2022. TNX-1900
(intranasal potentiated oxytocin), a small molecule in development
for chronic migraine, is currently enrolling with interim data
expected in the fourth quarter of 2023. TNX-601 ER (tianeptine
hemioxalate extended-release tablets), a once-daily formulation of
tianeptine being developed as a treatment for major depressive
disorder (MDD), is also currently enrolling with interim data
expected in the fourth quarter of 2023. TNX-1300 (cocaine esterase)
is a biologic designed to treat cocaine intoxication and has been
granted Breakthrough Therapy designation by the FDA. A Phase 2
study of TNX-1300 is expected to be initiated in the second quarter
of 2023. Tonix’s rare disease portfolio includes TNX-2900
(intranasal potentiated oxytocin) for the treatment of Prader-Willi
syndrome. TNX-2900 has been granted Orphan Drug designation by the
FDA. Tonix’s immunology portfolio includes biologics to address
organ transplant rejection, autoimmunity and cancer, including
TNX-1500, which is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting
CD40-ligand (CD40L or CD154) being developed for the prevention of
allograft and xenograft rejection and for the treatment of
autoimmune diseases. A Phase 1 study of TNX-1500 is expected to be
initiated in the second quarter of 2023. Tonix’s infectious disease
pipeline includes TNX-801, a vaccine in development to prevent
smallpox and mpox, for which a Phase 1 study is expected to be
initiated in the second half of 2023. TNX-801 also serves as the
live virus vaccine platform or recombinant pox vaccine platform for
other infectious diseases. The infectious disease portfolio also
includes TNX-3900, a class of broad-spectrum small molecule oral
antivirals.
*All of Tonix’s product candidates are investigational new drugs
or biologics and have not been approved for any indication.
