Novo Nordisk has entered a global licence agreement with French biotechnology company C2X Pharma and the French national institute for health and medical research (Inserm) for thrombin-activable factor X. The protein, which is in early preclinical development, is a novel type of bypassing agent, capable of propagating blood clotting independently of factors VIII and IX. Novo Nordisk intends to explore the protein’s potential for becoming a new treatment option for haemophilia and other critical bleeding conditions.
The agreement supports Novo Nordisk’s ambition to expand its portfolio of projects within haemophilia and haemostasis through partnerships with biotech companies and research institutions around the world.
Thrombin-activable factor X was discovered by Professor Martine Aiach, Doctor Bernard Le Bonniec, Doctor Pierre-Emmanuel Marque and their team at Unit Inserm 428 (Pharmaceutical and Biological Sciences Faculty at René Descartes University) and further developed to its current stage by C2X Pharma.
