The study is being carried out at Sheba Medical Center in Israel, in partnership with Sabar Health for home visits.

Apart from ischemic stroke recovery, TXA127 is being developed for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)-associated cardiomyopathy.

The compound demonstrated therapeutic activity in various animal models for diseases such as ischemic stroke, DMD, limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD), congenital muscular dystrophy (MDC1A), Marfan Syndrome, and Epidermolysis Bullosa.

Constant Therapeutics CEO Rick Franklin said: “There are no drugs available to treat chronic stroke, but the design and logistics of clinical trials in these patients is particularly difficult.

“We are fortunate to have been able to put together the infrastructure needed, with the participation of Sabar Health and Sheba Medical Center.

“This unique combination will allow us to test TXA127 for this important unmet medical need.”

The company develops therapies that target the Alternative Renin-Angiotensin System.

In 2021, Constant announced that TXA127 entered the US National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded clinical trial for Covid-19 at 60 US sites.
