EMEA recommends orphan designation for Sygnis’s ALS drug

Sygnis Pharma has received a positive recommendation from the Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products of the European Medicines Agency for AX200, for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS.

The European Medicines Agency (EMEA) orphan drug designation program is dedicated to stimulate and support the development of pharmaceuticals to treat life-threatening or very serious and rare diseases, which cannot be treated or can only be treated insufficiently.

Alfred Bach, CEO of Sygnis Pharma, said: “We will plan further steps in close cooperation with EMEA and hope to initiate clinical trials within the next twelve months.”
