The program is a celebration of trailblazing organizations who are changing the game in their respective industries and altering the corporate landscape. From a wide range of sectors, these companies are at the cutting edge of breakthrough technologies, innovation and modernized business structures. Those included in the list have a shared goal of developing revolutionary products and technology that drives scalable business models and disrupts established industries and markets.

Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) is a little discussed condition that affects 60% of cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. The nerve damage and intense pain it causes is a leading factor in people choosing to cease treatment, so AlgoTherapeutix is on a mission to do something about it.

In an interview with Business Worldwide Magazine, the company’s founder and CEO, Stéphane Thiroloix explained that there is currently no FDA-approved therapy for CIPN, leaving many to endure severe pain and reduced quality of life. As well as the debilitating pain, the condition often leads to chemotherapy dose reduction, increasing the chances of cancer related deaths. Instead of the unapproved painkillers that are traditionally used to bring limited relief to the condition,  Stéphane and business partner Olivier Bohuon, commenced development of their own breakthrough treatment in 2018. In contrast to many start-ups, the founders are both pharma veterans, providing them with a wealth of experience in developing safe and patient friendly medicines.

Together they are developing a life-changing treatment to relieve patients of the pain experienced by CIPN, known as ATX01. The distinctive concept behind this new treatment is that it uses high concentration amitriptyline gel, targeting the epidermis and dermis – where most damaged nerve fibres lie. Unlike oral treatments, the low systemic absorption of the product avoids common side effects.

In only two years the company filed a solid IP portfolio, designed a tailored formulation, demonstrated its efficacy on pain messaging and innocuous profile. ATX01 is now ready for human testing and set for a commercial launch by 2025. The FDA recently granted AlgoTx an Orphan Drug Designation to study ATX01 in erythromelalgia, a rare and extremely painful disorder which causes severe burning pain and inflammation of the hands and feet.

AlgoTx – Developing novel treatments for pain control.

Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) has always been an iceberg in the ocean of cancer care.  Underestimated and heavily consequential. AlgoTx, an innovative Paris based biotech focused on complex pain may well melt the iceberg. 

Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) is an underestimated and devastating condition. Experienced by over 60 per cent of patients undergoing chemotherapy treatments, it ranks among the leading causes of chemotherapy modification or interruption, and is a cause of intense pain for patients.

A form of nerve damage to the skin of patients’ hands and feet, CIPN is most commonly associated with chemotherapies including platinum drugs, taxanes, vinca alkaloids (plant based drugs which block cell growth), proteasome inhibitors (drugs which prevent the degradation of protein within cells) and thalidomide derivatives used to stop cancer cells from developing).

The nerve damage caused by these chemotherapies produces symptoms which include burning, electric and stabbing sensations, numbness, tingling and allodynia – a condition which causes intense pain caused by normally painless stimuli.

Currently no FDA-approved therapy for CIPN exists. Despite the best efforts from their consultants, patients suffering from this crippling condition, have to endure severe pain and a reduced quality of life. “The debilitating pain which CIPN inflicts is not the only cause for concern. The condition often leads to chemotherapy dose reduction or termination, which may increase the chances of cancer-related morbidity and mortality,” explains Stéphane Thiroloix, CEO and Founder of AlgoTx.

To reduce the pain of the condition, clinicians will generally administer oral antidepressants and anticonvulsants. Whilst these yield some pain relief, they are limited and trigger taxing cardiovascular, neurological and neuromuscular side-effects. Indeed, reaching the right concentration in the skin requires the administration of high oral doses which in turn cause unwanted side-effects.

Developing a novel solution

It is therefore logical to look for an active compound with strong peripheral activity that can be administered directly into the skin with minimal passage in the bloodstream and therefore cause minimal systemic side-effects. A few attempts occurred to design a topical presentation of amitriptyline – indeed amitriptyline’s activity has a strong peripheral activity. Those attempts failed and the scientific community since then considered that amitriptyline is too complex to formulate for topical administration, probably difficult to protect with solid Intellectual Property, and possibly exposed to pricing challenges once approved.

In 2018 AlgoTx, led by pharma veterans Stéphane Thiroloix (CEO) and Olivier Bohuon, commenced development of their own revolutionary treatment to relieve patients of the pain experienced by CIPN – ATX01. The distinctive concept behind this new treatment being that through targeting the epidermis and dermis – the outermost layers of skin and predominantly the location of damaged nerve fibres with a high concentration amitriptyline gel, ATX01 will achieve strong efficacy. By contrast, its expected low systemic absorption will avoid the side-effects of oral treatment.

AlgoTx has now completed four vital stages of bringing ATX01 to market –

  1. Filing a solid patent portfolio;
  2. Applying formulation-by-design to develop a high-concentration formula with the intended penetration properties;
  3. Demonstrating the local activity of amitriptyline on the peripheral nervous system;
  4. Conducting a full pre-clinical plan which now makes ATX01 ready for testing on patients.

The innovative nature of ATX01 in revolutionising the administration of pain relief for chemotherapy and related treatments is undoubtedly due to the considerable knowledge and industry related experience of AlgoTx’ co-founders.

A start up with a difference

In contrast to the typical start-up, AlgoTx was founded by Stéphane Thiroloix and Olivier Bohuon, who are both pharma veterans. Stephane’s career journey has included prestigious roles at reputable R&D-based pharmaceutical corporates, including Executive Vice-President of Corporate Development at Ipsen – a leading biopharmaceutical group dedicated to improving lies through innovative medicines in oncology, neuroscience and rare diseases.

Equally, Olivier Bohuon has served as Chief Executive and Vice President for established global corporates within the pharmaceutical sector, including Smith & Nephew and Abbott Laboratories.

Backed by such illustrious expertise it is clear that AlgoTx’ innovative co-founders bring a wealth of top-to-bottom experience in the development, business development and commercialisation of pharmaceutical products.

Discussing this, Stéphane Thiroloix said, “Awareness of our limits is our main quality, and we have the ability to reach out to experts to go beyond these limits. We will now see ATX01 through its clinical development, with an aim of teaming up with suitable pharma partners for a 2025 commercial launch.”

From here, the door is open to exploring additional uses of ATX01, as its gel formulation and therefore simple method of administration may make it suitable for other forms of peripheral neuropathic pain.

FDA designation

This has been evidenced with the FDA recently granting AlgoTx an Orphan Drug Designation to study ATX01 in erythromelalgia – (Formally known as Mitchell’s Disease) – a rare and extremely painful disorder which causes severe burning pain and inflammation of the hands and feet.

“The ability to investigate ATX01 in erythromelalgia is an exciting medical pursuit as sufferers have very few options for pain relief. This provides us with opportunity to increase our understanding of ATX01’s activity on essential pain conduction mechanisms” states Stéphane.

Innovation can be measured on the dimensions of novelty and impact. Having challenged the consensus on CIPN and built a “silver start up” AlgoTx is likely to score highly on the impact scale when it brings genuine relief to millions of patients with CIPN and other forms of peripheral neuropathic pain.

FDA Grants ATX01 Orphan Drug Designation in Erythromelalgia

SURESNES, France- June 8th 2020 -(BUSINESS WIRE)–European biotech AlgoTx, an innovator in complex pain therapy, today announces the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted ATX01 (proprietary topical amitriptyline) Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of erythromelalgia.

This designation is given to medications with the potential to treat rare conditions — those that affect fewer than 200,000 people in the U.S. Benefits include exemption from fees, financial incentives for clinical development, and seven years of market exclusivity if the treatment is approved.

Erythromelalgia is a rare condition that primarily affects the feet and less commonly the hands. It is characterized by intense, burning pain, severe redness and increased skin temperature either episodic or almost continuous. Whilst erythromelalgia is deemed to result from vasomotor abnormalities or dysfunction in the normal constriction and dilation of the caliber of certain blood vessels, the pain of erythromelalgia is thought to be associated with sodium channel dysfunction.

The ATX01 program primarily targets Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy. Via topical administration of a proprietary high-concentration amitriptyline gel, ATX01 aims to directly reach the damaged nerve fibers in the skin and avoid the systemic side-effects of oral and injectable compounds. Pre-clinical investigation evidenced the anti-nociceptive activity of topical amitriptyline on voltage-gated sodium-channels Nav1.7, Nav1.8 and Nav1.9 and on peripheral sensory nerve fibers Aβ, A∂ and C. With its pre-clinical development complete, ATX01 will enter into Phase I clinical development in late 2020.

“The opportunity to investigate ATX01 in erythromelalgia is an exciting medical pursuit as those patients have very few options to relieve considerable pain. It provides us with an opportunity to further our understanding of ATX01’s activity on Nav1.7 in a pre-clinical and clinical setting”, says Stéphane Thiroloix, AlgoTx’s founder and CEO.

AlgoTx raises 2.6M€ towards pre-clinical development of ATX01

One-year old AlgoTx announced it completed a 2.6M€ in Seed Capital. The French biotech start-up, hosted by the Paris Biotech Santé incubator is developing ATX01, a treatment for neuropathic pain caused by chemotherapy.

Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN)

Over half of cancer patients treated with chemotherapy develop CIPN and experience sensory symptoms and pain in the hands and feet1: loss of sensitivity, tingling, cold and intense pain2 can persist for months to years after treatment3,4. CIPN can prevent patients from walking or using their hands, thus deeply affecting their quality of life.

CIPN is found in over two million patients each year in the US and Europe5,6, representing the first cause for modification or interruption of chemotherapy. To this date, no therapeutic approach has offered a satisfactory response for patients and their caregivers, oncologists and pain specialists.

Promising exploratory data.

Inspired by clinical experience at a specialized pain treatment center, Algotx’s ATX01 targets topical treatment of CIPN by repositioning amitriptyline into a suitable formulation.

Early observations with the precursor of ATX01, published in January 2019 in Supportive Care in Cancer7 were the starting point of our development.

The completed Seeding Round enables AlgoTx to initiate the pre-clinical development of ATX01.

Strong human and entrepreneurial dynamics.

AlgoTx was founded in April 2018 by Stéphane Thiroloix and Olivier Bohuon, both seasoned professionals of the pharmaceutical world, where they developed solid strategic, operational, scientific and financial expertise in the companies they contributed to lead. Beyond ATX01, AlgoTx foresees the development of a portfolio of additional treatments for complex pain.

A strong operational team is gathered to execute the project, supported by a high-level Scientific Advisory Board and experienced Board of Directors.

After operating for a year in financial autonomy, in part thanks to support from BPIFrance, this Seed funding round enables Algotx to boost its activity. “Working on such a clinically relevant indication is a privilege and I am delighted with this strengthened financial support towards the development of ATX01, so it can become a reference treatment for chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain”,Stephane Thiroloix, co-founder and President of AlgoTx comments.

Strong with an IP portfolio and solid pre-clinical data, ATX01’s next funding round will take place in early 2020, to fund clinical development.
