Regulatory News:
ACTICOR BIOTECH (FR0014005OJ5 - ALACT), a clinical stage
biopharmaceutical company developing glenzocimab, an innovative
drug for the treatment of cardiovascular emergencies, today
provides an update on the current receivership proceedings.
To enable the Company to continue its search for new investors
or partners to support its new development plan in STEMI
(ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction), the court-appointed
administrator had granted mid-October 2024 an extension until
Tuesday November 5, 2024, to the call for bids published on
September 13, for a continuation or disposal plan.
To date, the court-appointed administrator has received no
proposal from a buyer. The Company is therefore pursuing its
search for a solution to support the development of glenzocimab in
STEMI, and the 6-month observation period opened on August 6, 2024,
is ongoing.
As a reminder, on 6 August 2024, the Paris Commercial Court had
ordered the opening of receivership proceedings. The purpose of
these proceedings is to enable the Company to assess all the
options available to it to pursue its development, the development
of its product, glenzocimab, and its search for financing and
partners. As already mentioned, this procedure will also enable the
Company to finance its operations until January 2025.
The Company will continue to keep the market informed of
developments in the current receivership proceedings and calls on
investors to follow closely future communications concerning its
progress.
About ACTICOR BIOTECH
ACTICOR BIOTECH, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company
founded in 2013 from the work of INSERM, is developing glenzocimab,
a humanized monoclonal antibody fragment (fab) targeting the GPVI
platelet receptor for the treatment of cardiovascular emergencies
and acute thrombotic diseases.
The main clinical indication being evaluated is acute ischemic
stroke, due to the strong need for safer treatments, particularly
those that do not increase the risk of bleeding, and its high
incidence. In three international clinical trials involving over
600 stroke patients, no significant impact on neurological
improvement (mRS score at 3 months) was demonstrated, with the
exception of a sub-population of patients with intracerebral
haemorrhage, where mortality was significantly reduced by a factor
of 3 (p=0.035) (Mazighi et al. 2024).
LIBERATE, a Phase 2 clinical trial in the acute phase of
myocardial infarction (STEMI), is currently being recruited through
an academic partnership with the University of Birmingham (UK).
This study aims to demonstrate the efficacy of glenzocimab in
reducing the size of myocardial infarction, a critical factor for
long-term cardiac function.
In all, more than 800 subjects were included in the clinical
trials, over 400 of whom were exposed to glenzocimab without safety
concerns.
The use of glenzocimab in thrombotic diseases is covered by 3
patent families, with an expiry date in 2036 for the first family.
ACTICOR BIOTECH also has the right to develop a biomarker for
stroke patients.
Acticor Biotech is backed by a panel of European and
international investors (Mediolanum farmaceutici, Karista, Go
Capital, Newton Biocapital, CMS Medical Venture Investment (HK)
Limited, A&B (HK) Limited, Anaxago, and the Armesa Foundation)
and has been listed on Euronext Growth Paris since November 2021
(ISIN: FR0014005OJ5 - ALACT).
