    Bullish Trend In NanoViricides (NNVC) Shares Following Promising Clinical Findings

    Following the release of encouraging clinical trial data, shares of NanoViricides, Inc. (NYSE: NNVC) are demonstrating a bullish trend on US stock charts. As of the latest current-market check, NNVC stock increased by 7.92% to $3.27.

    Breakthrough Findings On NV-387

    NanoViricides (NNVC) reported that its leading clinical-stage broad-spectrum antiviral drug candidate, NV-387, exhibits an ideal flat blood concentration profile for an extended duration upon oral administration in two different animal models. This rare but highly desirable extended flat time profile of NV-387 in the bloodstream enables a sustained antiviral effect over a prolonged period, allowing for infrequent dosing regimens.

    Specifically, the blood concentration of NV-387 peaked within the first hour and remained nearly constant for eight hours or longer. Subsequently, the concentration declined to baseline at around twelve hours following the oral administration of the initial dose. This was consistently observed in studies involving rats and dogs.

    Efficacy Across Multiple Models

    Additionally, NanoViricides recently reported that when NV-387 was administered as a slow bolus intravenous infusion, it resulted in a relatively flat blood concentration plateau with a very slow decline over a 24-hour period in a cynomolgus monkey model. The company had previously demonstrated that orally administered NV-387 produced strong antiviral effects against several respiratory viruses.

    In lethal infections with hCoV-NL63, RSV, and Influenza A/H3N2, orally administered NV-387 outperformed approved therapeutics where available. Notably, in a rat model of deadly lung infection with RSV A2, NV-387 allowed for the full recovery from RSV infection.

    Potential Revolutionary Antiviral Agent

    First-in-class, broad-spectrum antiviral medication NV-387, may revolutionize treatment for viruses including RSV, COVID-19, influenza, and maybe others. NNVC’s claim is also supported by non-clinical pharmacokinetic studies of the medication when administered orally that NV-387’s systemic circulation and direct antiviral actions are responsible for the strong antiviral effects shown in animal efficacy trials.

    NanoViricides also highlighted that NV-387 may be among the first or one of the few nanomedicines effective upon oral administration, a notable advancement given that nanomedicines are typically restricted to injectable or topical delivery methods.

  • Why NanoViricides Inc. (NNVC) stock could not keep its positive momentum in the after-hours on Tuesday?

    Let’s see what are the recent news about NNVC?

    NNVC Nanomachines concept

    A few viruses NNVC is working toward attacking include Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), shingles, and influenza. To stop these and other viruses from infecting and duplicating in humans, NanoViricides, Inc. developed what they call a nanoviricide. It is designed to block the virus from spreading within the body, thus eliminating the infection.

    The idea is that the drug NanoViricides, Inc. developed would contain a nanoviricide (or nanomachine) that attracts the targeted virus. The nanomachine then attacks, traps and destroys the virus before it can replicate and invade the body further.

    If this technology works as expected, it will change how the medical community approaches every virus on the planet, including the coronavirus and future viruses not yet discovered.

    Positive results of NNVC two COVID-19 clinical drug candidates

    On March 9, 2021, NanoViricides, Inc (NNVC) reported the strong results of its two COVID-19 clinical drug candidates in an animal model of coronavirus infection.

    The Company is preparing a pre-IND application encompassing its two clinical drug candidates for the treatment of COVID-19 infected patients. Of these, NV-CoV-2 is the Company’s broad-spectrum anti-coronavirus drug candidate based on its nanoviricides® platform that is expected to be capable of attacking most, if not all, SARS-CoV-2 variants and other coronaviruses. In addition, the Company is also developing NV-CoV-2-R that combines (1) the power of NV-CoV-2 to attack and potentially dismantle the virus particles outside cells, and (2) the power of remdesivir to block further production of virus particles inside cells. Blocking the complete lifecycle of the virus in this manner could provide a cure for the viral disease.

    NNVC filed its Quarterly Report

    On May 17, 2021, NanoViricides, Inc filed its quarterly report for its third quarter of the financial year 2021 with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

    • The Company had no revenues for the quarter that ended on March 31, 2021.
