NanoViricides Inc. (NYSE American: NNVC) is a clinical-stage company pioneering broad-spectrum antiviral drugs engineered to combat viral resistance.They will be presenting at the Life Science Executive Partnering (LSX) World Congress 2025 in Boston on September 17th, showcasing their innovative nanoviricide technology platform and diverse pipeline of antiviral candidates.
The company is currently prioritizing the advancement of NV-387, a lead candidate designed as a broad-spectrum treatment for respiratory viral infections including RSV, COVID-19, long COVID, and influenza, and also MPOX/smallpox. NV-HHV-1,targeting shingles,is another advanced candidate. NanoViricides is working towards Phase II human clinical trials for NV-387, with IND filing timelines dependent on external collaborations.
NanoViricides has two distinct COVID-19 drug candidates: NV-CoV-2 (remdesivir-free) and NV-CoV-2-R (remdesivir-encapsulated). The latter is anticipated to possibly benefit from a smoother regulatory path due to remdesivir’s existing FDA approval, contingent on comparable safety profiles. both were independently developed by NanoViricides.
The foundation of NanoViricides’ technology lies in an exclusive licensing agreement with TheraCour Pharma Inc.,granting perpetual worldwide exclusive rights – including sub-licensing rights – to treat a wide range of viral diseases. This includes HIV/AIDS, hepatitis viruses, rabies, herpes viruses, influenza, dengue, Japanese encephalitis, West Nile virus, ebola/Marburg viruses, and specific coronaviruses.
Beyond its current focus, NanoViricides is actively developing treatments for oral and genital herpes, viral eye diseases like EKC and herpes keratitis, and numerous other viral pathogens. Future licensing opportunities for RSV, poxviruses, and enteroviruses are being considered based on research outcomes. The core technology utilizes specialized nanomaterials designed to overcome the challenges of viral resistance.
NanoViricides acknowledges the inherent risks and extended timelines associated with pharmaceutical progress. Success in clinical trials and regulatory approval are not guaranteed. The LSX World Congress 2025 presentation offers a valuable possibility for the scientific and investment communities to assess the potential of this nanotechnology-based approach to address a broad spectrum of viral threats and resistance mechanisms.
