Amolyt Pharma is a biotech expert in rare diseases Founded in 2015, Amolyt Pharma specializes in treatments for rare endocrine diseases. It currently has two drug candidates: AZP-3813, for the treatment of acromegaly, and, most importantly, AZP-3601, known as eneboparatide and aimed at curing hypoparathyroidism (a rare disease causing a lack of production of parathyroid hormone, which is involved in the regulation of calcium levels). Having completed Phase 2 of the latter treatment in September with positive results on its safety and efficacy, all funding will be focused on AZP-3601. Amolyt Pharma is counting on this new round of financing to fund its phase 3. This phase will include around 100 patients and is due to start in the first half of this year. “We have the financial resources to successfully complete this stage, which should lead to a marketing application in 2025, primarily in the United States,” said Thierry Abribat, founder and CEO of Amolyt Pharma.
