Tonix Pharmaceuticals CEO Discusses New Long Covid Report and Its Implications

Episode Summary

Dr. Seth Lederman, CEO of Tonix Pharmaceuticals, recently joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the implications of a groundbreaking report from the US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine on long Covid. The report defines long Covid as a chronic condition encompassing multiple diagnosable disorders, thus paving the way for better understanding and treatment approaches. A particularly significant finding in the report is the acknowledgment that fibromyalgia can now be diagnosed in patients with long Covid, which eliminates previous diagnostic uncertainties. This development is especially beneficial for Tonix Pharmaceuticals, as the company is advancing TNX-102 SL, a drug designed to treat fibromyalgia. Dr. Lederman pointed out that this new diagnostic clarity could substantially broaden the addressable market for TNX-102 SL, which already targets approximately 10 million American adults diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Tonix Pharmaceuticals is in the final stages of developing TNX-102 SL, having received FDA Fast Track designation in recognition of its significant potential. The company has completed two statistically significant studies and is preparing a new drug application for submission. Dr. Lederman, who has nearly 30 years of experience researching fibromyalgia, emphasized the potential impact of this report on the estimated 14 million Americans suffering from long Covid. This new diagnostic criterion could enable these individuals to access effective treatments for fibromyalgia, representing a significant advancement in patient care. #proactiveinvestors #tonixpharmaceuticalsholdingcorp #nasdaq #tnxp #TonixPharmaceuticals, #SethLederman, #LongCovid, #Fibromyalgia, #NationalAcademies, #USScience, #TNX102SL, #DrugDevelopment, #FDA, #FastTrack, #Pharmaceuticals, #Health, #MedicalResearch, #Covid19, #ChronicIllness, #Medicine, #Healthcare, #ScientificResearch, #NewDrugApplication, #FibromyalgiaTreatment#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
