MELBOURNE, Australia, June 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CLINUVEL today announced a novel clinical program evaluating afamelanotide as a treatment in early-stage Parkinson's Disease (PD or Parkinson's) in fair-skinned patients. The program objectives are to determine whether afamelanotide – through melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) activation – is able to lower a-synuclein (a toxin) in blood levels in PD patients, and positively affect neurons of the midbrain. MC1R is known to be a key receptor in brain and skin cells. In large studies, it was found that fair-skinned patients have a higher risk of PD associated with a malfunctioning MC1R. a Since afamelanotide is known to optimise the function of the MC1R, it is hypothesised that the drug treatment would have a positive effect in PD by lowering a-synuclein, as recently demonstrated in preclinical studies.²¯³ Afamelanotide is marketed in Europe and the USA as SCENESSE ® for patients diagnosed with erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP).
