NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 13, 2017 / Traders News Source, a leading independent equity research and corporate access firm focused on small and micro-cap public companies is issuing a comprehensive report with no obligation on Ocera Therapeutics, Inc. OCRX. On March 8th 2017, OCRX announced that it would report additional encouraging data from its Phase 2b STOP-HE study of intravenous (IV) OCR-002 in hospitalized patients with Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE) at the Cowen and Company Annual Healthcare Conference. In January 2017, it already announced positive results from its Phase 1 study of orally administered OCR-002 in patients with chronic liver cirrhosis.

Currently, there are no drug treatments for HE that can be given intravenously to hospitalized patients with acute HE. OCR-002 is rapidly progressing to be an extremely promising ammonia scavenger therapy being explored for HE. Moreover, this formulation is being developed both as intravenous as well as oral therapy, and is targeting a market size of around $2.0 billion in USA.

OCR-002 has been granted orphan drug designation and Fast Track status by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Which means, that it will enjoy 7 years of market exclusivity.

Management anticipates that it will have sufficient cash to fund operations into the second quarter of 2018 based on its current operating plan and re-prioritization of certain development activities. To continue its ongoing research and development operations beyond 2018, the company might need to raise incremental capital by way of equity or debt.
