Hoth Therapeutics engages Altasciences to perform key study for HT-KIT

Hoth Therapeutics announced that it has completed bioanalytical method development under its prior agreement with Altasciences and plans to further engage Altasciences to perform a key study of mouse blood and plasma analysis from samples collected in Hoth‘s sponsored scientific research conducted at NC State University. The blood and plasma samples collected are part of a dose response study in a humanized mouse model. The upcoming study will use the newly validated bioanalytical method developed at Altasciences to test the amount of HT-KIT from the dose response study and help determine how long HT-KIT remains in the blood stream post dosing. “We continue to make strides in moving HT-KIT from the lab to patients and this further analysis will help us with that process as a final step in the preclinical development that allows us to finalizing the protocols in our upcoming IND-enabling,” stated Robb Knie, Chief Executive Officer. “We are pleased to further engage Altasciences on these studies given its great reputation for full-service solutions including preclinical safety testing, clinical pharmacology and bioanalysis.”
