“Concussions continue to be one of the most pervasive and underserved injuries in both sports and civilian trauma,” said Janet Huffman, CEO of Oragenics. “ONP-002 offers a novel therapeutic approach to a market with no FDA-approved drug therapies, and this webinar will provide a clear window into how we’re building a differentiated platform to meet that need.”
The webinar comes as Oragenics continues to advance its Phase IIa clinical program. ONP-002 is delivered intranasally, enabling non-invasive and direct brain delivery while minimizing systemic exposure. In preclinical studies, ONP-002 has demonstrated the ability to reduce inflammation, oxidative stress, and brain swelling following head injury. A Phase I trial showed the compound to be safe and well tolerated.
