Microba Announces Landmark GI Study Results From Over 4,600 Patients15.5.2025 05:12:00 EEST | Press release
Microba Life Sciences Limited (ASX: MAP) (“Microba” or the “Company”), a precision microbiome company, today announces preliminary results from the analysis of over 4,600 MetaXplore™ GI Plus test results, a comprehensive test for the assessment and management of lower gastrointestinal disorders, spanning symptoms including chronic pain, bloating, constipation, or diarrhea. This study demonstrates that MetaXplore can support clinicians to identify and address underlying gut issues that often go undetected by conventional testing. In over 70% of cases, the test revealed findings, such as abnormalities in gut bacteria, signs of infection, markers of inflammation or insufficiency that could inform targeted treatment strategies. Further, two-thirds of MetaXplore patients in a separate study of follow up survey results reported improvement of symptoms after their care was guided by the test results.

Rubedo Life Sciences’ Drug Discovery Platform, ALEMBIC™, Helps Identify Senescent or “Zombie” Neurons in New Study Linking Neuropathic Pain and Aging Published in Peer-Reviewed Scientific Journal Nature Neuroscience15.5.2025 04:11:00 EEST | Press release
Rubedo Life Sciences, Inc. (Rubedo), an AI-driven, clinical-stage biotech focused on discovering and rapidly developing selective cellular rejuvenation medicines targeting aging cells, today announced that using open source codes integrated in the company’s broader propriety drug discovery platform, ALEMBIC™, helped to identify senescent neurons in a new study that found senescent neurons drive chronic pain with injury and age.1 Senescent cells, often called “zombie” cells, arise as the results of cellular stress and damage. These senescent cells do not die but undergo cellular changes, including secreting pro-inflammatory factors, thereby potentially contributing to inflammatory responses within the body.1 The study, led by Stanford University scientists, Vivianne Tawfik, MD, PhD, and Lauren Donovan, PhD, and co-authored by Rubedo team members, including Chief Scientific Officer Marco Quarta, PhD, and Chief Technology Officer Alex Laslavic, was published in the May 14th edition of Nat
The New England Journal of Medicine Publishes Data from Phase 2b Trial of Oral Orexin Receptor 2 Agonist Oveporexton (TAK-861) in People with Narcolepsy Type 115.5.2025 00:03:00 EEST | Press release
Takeda (TSE: 4502/NYSE:TAK) today announced that the New England Journal of Medicine published data from the Phase 2b trial of oveporexton (TAK-861) in people with narcolepsy type 1 (NT1). Oveporexton is an investigational oral orexin receptor 2 (OX2R)-selective agonist designed to restore orexin signaling to address the underlying orexin deficiency that causes NT1. Results demonstrated significant improvement in objective and subjective measures of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS), reductions in cataplexy events and clinically meaningful improvements in disease severity and quality of life across all doses tested compared to placebo through eight weeks of treatment. NT1 is a severe, chronic neurological condition caused by a significant loss of orexin-producing neurons, resulting in low levels of orexin leading to EDS, cataplexy (sudden loss of muscle tone), cognitive symptoms, disrupted nighttime sleep, hallucinations that occur as one falls asleep or wakes up and sleep paralysis.T
