Announcement
Jaguar Health, Inc announced that four dogs have now been enrolled in Jaguar's ongoing field study of Canalevia-CA1, the company's U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conditionally approved prescription drug for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in dogs, and enrollment is continuing.
AI Summary
Jaguar Health, Inc. announced that four dogs have now been enrolled in its ongoing field study of Canalevia‐CA1, a canine-specific formulation approved by the FDA for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea (CID) in dogs. The study, which is taking place at six veterinary oncology clinics, aims to collect real-world data to support eventual full FDA approval of Canalevia‐CA1. Enrollment is ongoing, and additional participating clinics are being considered. This field study will assess the drug’s effectiveness in treating CID in dogs and gather valuable evidence that may help expand its use or lead to broader regulatory approval. Canalevia‐CA1 is unique because it uses crofelemer, a plant-based ingredient that targets the chloride channels in the gastrointestinal tract, offering a non-antibiotic option for managing CID in dogs.

Announcement
Jaguar Health, Inc. announced initial proof-of-concept results showing that a novel liquid formulation of crofelemer reduced the required TPN and/or supplementary intravenous fluids, collectively referred to as parenteral support (PS) in patients with intestinal failure due to microvillus inclusion disease (MVID) and short bowel syndrome (SBS-IF) by up to 27% and 12.5% respectively.
AI Summary
Jaguar Health, Inc. announced promising initial proof-of-concept results for a new liquid formulation of crofelemer in treating patients with intestinal failure due to microvillus inclusion disease (MVID) and short bowel syndrome (SBS-IF). The study showed that the treatment reduced the need for total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and supplementary intravenous fluids—collectively referred to as parenteral support (PS)—by up to 27% in MVID patients and 12.5% in SBS-IF patients. The liquid formulation also appeared to improve nutrient absorption by lowering stool volume and frequency while increasing urine output. These early findings suggest that crofelemer could offer a much-needed alternative to reduce the lifelong reliance on TPN, which is associated with risks such as infections and organ complications, potentially leading to an improved quality of life for patients with these challenging conditions.

On January 29, 2025, Jaguar Health announced an extension of its collaboration with Streeterville. This expanded partnership supports Napo’s plans to develop NP-300, a drug product candidate aimed at providing symptomatic relief for diarrhea and dehydration in cholera patients. The collaboration will also focus on pursuing a Tropical Disease Priority Review Voucher (TDPRV) from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this important indication. Achieving a TDPRV could help speed up the review process, potentially bringing NP-300 to market faster and offering a critical treatment option for patients affected by cholera. This move underscores Jaguar Health’s commitment to addressing unmet medical needs in tropical diseases and reflects a promising step forward in the company’s efforts to improve patient care with innovative therapeutic solutions.
