TRC150094, a Novel Mitochondrial Modulator, Reduces Cardio-Metabolic Risk as an Add-On Treatment: a Phase-2, 24-Week, Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Clinical Trial.

Background: TRC150094, a novel mitochondrial modulator, reduces insulin resistance and is expected to improve the trinity of dysglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. In this multi-dose phase-2 study, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of TRC150094 in diabetic subjects with dyslipidemia receiving standard of care.

Methods: A randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, Phase 2 study was conducted in 225 subjects from July 2013 to August 2015.

Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of a Novel Mitochondrial Modulator, TRC150094, in Overweight and Obese Subjects: A Randomized Phase-I Clinical Trial.

TRC150094, a novel mitochondrial modulator, can restore metabolic flexibility by improving insulin resistance in preclinical studies. This study primarily aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of oral TRC150094 after conducting two double-blind, randomized, Phase-I studies, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD), with = 46, in overweight/obese adult and elderly subjects. In addition, the effect of TRC150094 on pharmacodynamic (PD) efficacy markers was evaluated.

The effect of a diiodothyronine mimetic on insulin sensitivity in male cardiometabolic patients: a double-blind randomized controlled trial.

Background And Aims: Obesity and its associated cardiometabolic co-morbidities are increasing worldwide. Since thyroid hormone mimetics are capable of uncoupling the beneficial metabolic effects of thyroid hormones from their deleterious effects on heart, bone and muscle, this class of drug is considered as adjacent therapeutics to weight-lowering strategies. This study investigated the safety and efficacy of TRC150094, a thyroid hormone mimetic.

Treatment with a novel hypoxia-inducible factor hydroxylase inhibitor (TRC160334) ameliorates ischemic acute kidney injury.

Background: Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) transcriptional system plays a central role in cellular adaptation to low oxygen levels. Preconditional activation of HIF and/or expression of its individual target gene products leading to cytoprotection have been well established in hypoxic/ischemic renal injury. Increasing evidence indicate HIF activation is involved in hypoxic/ischemic postconditioning of heart, brain and kidney.

TRC120038, a Novel Dual AT(1)/ET(A) Receptor Blocker for Control of Hypertension, Diabetic Nephropathy, and Cardiomyopathy in ob-ZSF1 Rats.

In hypertensive subjects, angiotensin II and endothelin participate in a manner involving closely interwoven pathways in increasing blood pressure (BP) and inducing end organ damage. The primary objective of this study was to determine the effect of TRC120038, a novel dual AT(1)/ET(A) receptor blocker on BP, in obese Zucker spontaneously hypertensive fatty rats (ob-ZSF1), an animal model of moderate hypertension, diabetes with progressive renal and cardiac dysfunction. Ob-ZSF1 rats loaded with 0.

Delayed intervention in experimental stroke with TRC051384--a small molecule HSP70 inducer.

Induction of HSPs is a natural response of stressed cells that protects against many insults including acute ischemia. TRC051384, a novel compound belonging to substituted 2-propen-1-one class is a potent inducer of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70). The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of TRC051384 in reducing neuronal injury and disability upon delayed treatments (4 and 8 hours post ischemia onset) in a rat model of transient cerebral ischemia.
