ALLISON MOORE, FOUNDER/CEO, HNF

pharnextI’m excited by Pharnext’s recent announcement that three major regulatory agencies in the United Kingdom, Europe and US have recognized PXT3003 as a lead drug candidate to treat CMT1A. 

The United Kingdom has granted Pharnext a Promising Innovative Medicine (PIM) designation as an early indication that a medicinal product is a promising candidate for the Early Access to Medicines Scheme (EAMS) in the treatment, diagnosis or prevention of life-threatening or seriously debilitating conditions with unmet need.

Despite the climate of COVID-19, our industry partner, Pharnext SA, continues to plan for the additional pivotal Phase 3 PXT3003 trial for CMT1A in patients 16 years and older in the US and Europe.

“All existing data indicate that PXT3003 is a safe and well tolerated drug combination. We look forward to continuing our discussions with U.S. and European regulatory authorities to advance the clinical development of PXT3003 and initiate as quickly as possible an additional pivotal Phase 3 trial in the U.S. and Europe.” 

–  Daniel Cohen, M.D., Ph.D., Co-Founder and Chairman of the Scientific Advisory Board of Pharnext
