Announces successful recruitment of half of the patients in its ongoing three-arm 240-patient phase II trial in chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy
Paris, France, 12 Sept: AlgoTherapeutix (AlgoTx), a clinical stage biotechnology company developing targeted, first-in-class therapeutics for peripheral neuropathic pain, announces it has dosed the first patients of up to 14, in the US and European centers of its phase II proof of concept trial, called EASE*. Under Orphan Drug Designation from FDA and EMA, this trial investigates the efficacy of the company’s lead asset ATX01 on the pain of Erythromelalgia, a rare neurological and vascular disease characterized by painful extremities for which there is no available treatment. The trial is due to read out in H1 2024.
The company’s innovative approach is focused on targeting specific nociceptive sodium channels involved in pain signaling through using a topical administration acting locally at the root of the pain and at a dose high enough to alleviate the extreme pain.
