SHELTON, CT / ACCESS Newswire / March 11, 2026 / NanoViricides, Inc. (AMEX:NNVC) (the "Company"), a clinical stage leader developing revolutionary broad-spectrum antiviral drugs that the virus cannot escape, is pleased to announce that it will be presenting at NIBA's 152nd Investment Conference in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
NanoViricides announces herewith that the manufacture of the drug product for this clinical trial, "NV-387 Oral Gummies" is now complete, in anticipation of starting dosing in patients as soon as site readiness is established.
Anil R. Diwan, PhD, President and Executive Chairman of the Company will deliver a company presentation on Thursday, March 12th at 11:50 am ET, and will be available for one-on-one investor meetings throughout the event.
NV-387, NanoViricides' lead clinical stage drug, is an extremely broad-spectrum antiviral drug that is poised to revolutionize the treatment of respiratory antiviral infections just as antibiotics have revolutionized the treatment of bacterial infections. NV-387 has multiple indications in development, including, RSV, Influenza, Coronaviruses (including COVID), Monkeypox, Smallpox, Measles, as well as Viral Acute Respiratory Infections (V-ARI), and Severe ARIs (V-SARI).
NV-387, as an oral drug, has successfully completed a Phase I clinical trial and healthy human subjects with no dropouts and no reported adverse events, indicating excellent safety and tolerability.
NV-387 has been approved to enter a Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of Monkeypox (MPox) by the regulatory agency ACOREP of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
NanoViricides is developing first-in-class antiviral drugs that act by a novel mechanism of action, enabling unparalleled broad-spectrum antiviral activity as well as safety. The Nanoviricides technology defines a novel antiviral mode of action that we call "Re-Infection Inhibition". A "nanoviricide" is designed to look like a cell to the virus, presenting a high concentration of virus-binding ligands on its surface. Upon binding of the virus, the nanoviricide is further designed to change shape and engulf the virus particle, rendering it incapable of infecting cells.
Viruses are unlikely to escape the nanoviricide platform drugs, because the nanoviricide platform drugs mimic the essential feature on the hist cell that the viruses require, and continue to use, even as they go through a multitude of changes in their genomes and their protein makeup, via mutations, recombinations and in some cases, re-assortments.
