Jupiter Neurosciences Inc., a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company, has entered an agreement with Catalent Pharma Solutions LLC to manufacture softgel capsules of JOTROL, its proprietary resveratrol-based therapeutic. The production will support Jupiter’s upcoming Phase 2a clinical trial for Parkinson’s disease.

As part of the agreement, Catalent will produce clinical batches of JOTROL, including both active and placebo formulations, using an optimised softgel formulation. This manufacturing effort is intended to ensure a reliable supply for the study.

“Securing an experienced CDMO leader like Catalent is a critical step as we advance JOTROL into clinical development for Parkinson’s disease,” said Christer Rosén, Chairman and CEO of Jupiter Neurosciences. “Catalent’s industry-leading expertise in pharmaceutical manufacturing and its ability to scale production efficiently according to a tight timeline will help us maintain momentum in our development program and support our goal of delivering innovative therapies to patients.”

The Phase 2a trial will assess JOTROL’s safety, tolerability, and PK/PD in Parkinson’s patients over a three-month period. This partnership with Catalent underscores Jupiter’s commitment to advancing its therapeutic pipeline with high-quality manufacturing support.
