Bioxodes’ innovative pipeline includes a clinical-stage program for the prevention of thrombosis and neuroinflammation in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Bioxodes is also preparing a Phase 2 trial with BIOX-101 in ischemic stroke.
BIOX-101 demonstrates a powerful dual mode of action, targeting thromboinflammation at its source. It inhibits the activation of neutrophils – the human immune system’s first responders - and the release of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). It also inhibits Factors XIa and XIIa of the intrinsic coagulation pathway, exerting a powerful antithrombotic effect. Crucially, it does so without increasing bleeding.
In parallel, Bioxodes is developing a pipeline of drug candidates with the objectives to treat chronic thrombo-inflammatory and inflammatory diseases. The goal is to leverage the activity of BIOX-101 against neutrophil activation and NETs formation.
BIOX-101 is our lead asset, topping a pipeline of therapeutic candidates targeting thrombo-inflammatory diseases. We are currently preparing for a Phase 2b clinical trial of BIOX-101 in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a condition with significant unmet medical need. BIOX-101 has received Orphan Drug Designation in both Europe and the U.S. for this indication.
“Stroke is worldwide one of the main causes for mortality,” he says in this video. “We are really in need to find medication hear to try and improve their prognosis.” Professor Lemmens, the head of the stroke unit at the University Hospital Leuven (Belgium), was speaking at an investor event Bioxodes had organized in Zurich, in February 2024.
First-in-class clinical-stage therapeutic to treat intracerebral hemorrhage, an often lethal disease with no approved treatment.
