AlgoTherapeutix Completes Phase I for Peripheral Neuropathy Program ATX01, Poised for Phase II Initiation in 2022
17.11.2021 12:02:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
France-based biotechnology company AlgoTherapeutix, developer of ATX01, an innovative topical treatment for the pain of peripheral neuropathy, announced today that the ATX01 Phase I trial successfully reached its safety and pharmacokinetics objectives, clearing the way for Phase II development in Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN).
Stéphane Thiroloix, Founder & CEO of AlgoTherapeutix, comments : “The outcome of this Phase I trial is an important milestone for AlgoTherapeutix. We are delighted that ATX01’s innovative approach and formulation did not raise any safety concern, and its PK profile is consistent with our objectives. We are now busy preparing for the pivotal Phase II CIPN study.”
Over half of cancer patients treated with chemotherapy - over two million patients in the US and Europe - develop CIPN and experience sensory symptoms and pain in the feet and hands: loss of sensitivity, tingling, burning, cold and intense pain can persist for months to years after treatment. CIPN is a leading cause of 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.
A recent publication in the “Journal of Pain” describes the exploratory pharmacological impact of high-dose topical amitriptyline in CIPN patients along with the mechanism of action supporting its activity (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpain.2020.11.002)
About AlgoTherapeutix : AlgoTherapeutix is a French biotech founded in 2018 to develop innovative solutions for complex pain. In 2020, AlgoTherapeutix raised a 12 M€ Series A led by Bpifrance and Omnes Capital to move its lead program ATX01 into clinical development. ATX01 is Phase II ready in painful peripheral neuropathy.

Eurooppalaisia yrityksiä uhkaa "näkyvyyskuilu", kun tekoäly määrittelee hakua ja asiakashankintaa uudelleen16.6.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Tiedote
Eurooppalaisilla yrityksillä on aiempaa vaikeampaa tavoittaa asiakkaita verkossa, ja ne kamppailevat epäselvyyden kanssa siitä, mikä ajaa kasvua. Näin kertoo digitaalinen ekosysteemipalveluntarjoaja team.bluen ensimmäinen vuotuinen Euroopan liiketoiminnan tila -raportti. Yli 10 000 yritykseltä 32 maassa tehty tutkimus varoittaa kasvavasta "näkyvyyskuilusta" eurooppalaisille yrityksille – syvenevästi katkoksesta heidän verkkonäkyvyytensä ja kyvykkyytensä välillä ymmärtää, vaikuttaa ja mitata sitä, miten asiakkaat löytävät heidät. Asiakashankintamaailma muuttuu nopeammin kuin useimmat yritykset ehtivät sopeutua: lähes joka kolmas yritys (30,6 %) raportoi, että asiakkaiden tavoittaminen verkossa on vaikeutunut viimeisen kahden vuoden aikana. Löytämisen kenttä on samanaikaisesti rikkaampi ja pirstaloituneempi kuin koskaan ennen – dynamiikka, jonka team.blue on nimennyt "Näkyvyystaloudeksi" (Visibility Economy). Yritysten luottamus siihen, miten asiakkaat löytävät heidät, on heikentynyt Kun
