Omiganan

Omiganan Pentahydrochloride (CLS001 / MBI 226) -- Synthetic Cationic Antimicrobial Peptide, Indolicidin Analog
Not FDA-approved for any indication. Not EMA-approved. Most advanced synthetic antimicrobial peptide (AMP) in clinical development by trial count, with completed Phase 3 trials in catheter-site infection prevention and papulopustular rosacea, and completed Phase 2 trials in acne, atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and HPV-induced genital lesions. The Phase 3 catheter trial (NCT00231153) did not demonstrate superiority over povidone-iodine on the primary endpoint (bloodstream infection rates). The rosacea Phase 3 showed statistically significant lesion reduction vs. vehicle. No regulatory submission has resulted in approval. Not on WADA Prohibited List.

Profile Overview

Omiganan is a synthetic 12-amino acid cationic peptide derived from indolicidin, an antimicrobial peptide from bovine neutrophil granules. It shares the cathelicidin protein family with the human peptide LL-37 (profiled separately), but its direct structural parent is the bovine indolicidin, not LL-37. Omiganan has the broadest clinical trial record of any synthetic antimicrobial peptide: Phase 3 for catheter infection prevention (missed primary endpoint) and papulopustular rosacea (statistically significant vs. vehicle), Phase 2 for acne vulgaris (positive), atopic dermatitis (microbiome recovery without clinical improvement), seborrheic dermatitis (negative vs. placebo), and HPV-induced anogenital lesions (96.6% HPV viral load reduction in anogenital warts, p=0.045). No indication has achieved regulatory approval.
