60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals Announces Partnership with The University of Southern Mississippi to Evaluate Castanospermine in Nonclinical Models of Alpha-Gal Syndrome
60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals signed a sponsored research agreement with the University of Southern Mississippi to evaluate castanospermine in nonclinical models of alpha-gal syndrome.
The company underwrites the research and retains an option to commercialize any resulting IP, with a possible botanical approval pathway ahead of any Rx development program.
There are no FDA-approved treatments for AGS, so the program addresses an unmet need, though it remains at a preclinical stage.
The release also reiterates the company's going-concern doubt and lack of manufacturing capacity, key risks alongside this early research.

60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals Announces Clinical Improvement and Negative PCR Results in All Completed Expanded Access Babesiosis Study Patients
All five completed patients (100%) in 60P's expanded access babesiosis study reported much or very much improved outcomes with negative conventional PCR tests, and 80% were negative on a highly sensitive post-treatment NAT assay.
Total enrollment is seven, with two patients still on treatment and the study open pending potential FDA discussions. The company plans to pursue accelerated approval using post-treatment NAT nonreactivity as a proposed surrogate endpoint.
A separate randomized, placebo-controlled hospitalized-babesiosis study (NCT06207370) is expected to unblind in January 2027, followed by a pre-sNDA meeting request with FDA. Tafenoquine is not FDA-approved for babesiosis; it is approved as ARAKODA for malaria prophylaxis.

60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals Plans January 2027 Hospitalized Babesiosis Data Readout; Will Seek Pre-sNDA Meeting with FDA
60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals will conclude enrollment at 30 patients in its severe babesiosis study of tafenoquine after a DSMB interim analysis on October 1, 2026 recommended completing the originally planned 33-patient study with no safety signals identified.
Primary and secondary endpoint results are expected in January 2027, when the company will also request a pre-sNDA meeting with the FDA; management sees a possible accelerated approval pathway using NAT-based molecular clearance as a surrogate endpoint in treatment-refractory patients.
The first three patients in its expanded access study achieved molecular cure, with data from two more patients due in early November 2026; tafenoquine is not yet FDA-approved for babesiosis, and results remain binary risk for the micro-cap filer.
