[{"type":"text","content":"JERUSALEM, Aug. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Entera Bio Ltd. (NASDAQ: ENTX), (“Entera” or the “Company”) a leader in the development of orally delivered peptides and therapeutic proteins, today announced that it has been selected to present data for its investigational agent EB613 at the ASBMR 2023 Annual Meeting on October 13-16, 2023 in Vancouver, BC, Canada. EB613 [hPTH(1-34) tablets] is being developed as the first once-daily oral anabolic (bone forming) mini tablet therapy for post-menopausal women with high risk osteoporosis. It is estimated that 54 million adults, representing 50 percent of the U.S. adult population over age 50, are at risk of a fragility fracture and approximately 1 in 5 older adults will die within the year following a hip fracture. Due to a lower peak bone density as compared to men and decreases in estradiol after menopause, women are affected in greater numbers. Post menopausal osteoporosis afflicts more women globally than cancer and cardiovascular disease and is a serious health concern. “Available treatments, while efficacious, fail to provide a viable solution for patients that no longer respond to antiresorptive medications and are unwilling to take an injectable anabolic drug or cumbersome device. As potentially, the first once daily hPTH(1-34) peptide tablet therapy, our EB613 program is dedicated to address the vast treatment gap in current osteoporosis care,” said Miranda Toledano, Chief Executive Officer at Entera.
