About NEW-HOPE

NEW-HOPE is a Phase 2b, open-label, dose-titrating study evaluating the safety and efficacy of firibastat (formerly known as QGC001) in hypertensive overweight subjects of multiple ethnic and racial groups. The study enrolled 256 patients in the United States. The primary objective of the study is to assess the effect of twice daily oral administration of firibastat, either 250 mg, 500 mg, or 500 mg + hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 25 mg once daily, for eight weeks on office systolic blood pressure (OSBP) in subjects at high cardiovascular risk and from various races/ethnicities.

The goal of Quantum Genomics is to develop innovative treatments for complicated, or even resistant, cases of hypertension (around 30% of patients have poor control of their condition or receive ineffective treatment) and for heart failure (one in two patients diagnosed with heart failure dies within five years).
