In addition to Unravel\u2019s RVL-001 program for RTT and PTHS, the company has also initiated development work on RVL-002, a first-in-class novel molecule for Rett syndrome. Unravel's proprietary BioNAV\u2122 drug discovery engine established a dynamic transcriptome network profile, called \u201cLiving Molecular Twins,\u201d to identify RVL-001 as a potentially promising therapeutic drug for Rett Syndrome and PTHS.<\/p><p>\nThe RVL-001 trials are being conducted at the Universidad de Antioquia\u2019s Group for Clinical Trials of PECET (\u201cGIC-PECET\u201d), a clinical study center of excellence and designated INVIMA clinical trial site in Medellin, Colombia. Both RVL-001 proof of concept studies are designed as placebo-controlled, \u201cn-of-1\u201d trials with a target enrollment of 15 patients with RTT and 5 patients with PTHS.

Despite one approved treatment for RTT, there remains a significant unmet need for novel treatments having meaningful efficacy and acceptable safety and tolerability. There are no known treatments for PTHS.<\/p><p>\n\"We are pleased to be able to initiate these important clinical studies for Rett and Pitt Hopkins patients in Colombia, for the families of the patients, this study is a silver lining. Our study site has been actively preparing to work on these studies for the past several months and our clinical team looks forward to supporting the trials\u2019 progress,\" said Dr. Carolina Lesmes, Principal Investigator, GIC-PECET.<\/p><p>\n<b>About Unravel Biosciences<\/b><\/p><p>\nUnravel Biosciences is a clinical-stage therapeutics company, integrating AI systems biology computation with rapid clinical validation of discovered targets. Unravel leverages its proprietary BioNAV\u2122 platform combining target and drug discovery, patient stratification, and clinical validation to find treatments for complex diseases using a systematic, data-driven approach called Predictable Medicine\u2122. Unravel's platform identified RVL002, a first-in-class new small molecule targeting mitochondrial metabolism having multiple clinical applications including neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders, and RVL069, a molecule targeting a novel mechanism to treat demyelination. The rareSHIFT\u2122 program provides platform and proprietary datamine access to partners to accelerate and clinically derisk therapeutics. <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.unravel.bio&amp;esheet=54534073&amp;newsitemid=20260512041694&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.unravel.bio&amp;index=3&amp;md5=4122f4e69b1f46ed2d8def1b37ce4a0d\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">www.unravel.bio<\/a> and <a  href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rareshift.org&amp;esheet=54534073&amp;newsitemid=20260512041694&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=www.rareshift.org&amp;index=4&amp;md5=29378b3414d0addf8e792089522b239c\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">www.rareshift.org<\/a><\/p><br\/> <b>Contacts<\/b> <br\/><p>\nMedia Contact\n<br\/><a  href=\"mailto:contact@unravel.bio\" rel=\"nofollow\" shape=\"rect\">contact@unravel.bio<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Target enrollment of 15 Rett patients and 5 Pitt Hopkins patients, with study completion anticipated in the first quarter of 2027.BOSTON&#8211;(BUSINESS WIRE)&#8211;#AIxBio&#8211;Unravel Biosciences, Inc., (\u00ab\u00a0Unravel\u00a0\u00bb), a clinical stage therapeutics company establish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4333","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-infos-businesswire"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4333","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4333"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4333\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4334,"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4333\/revisions\/4334"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4333"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4333"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stocks-future.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4333"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
