Overview clinical studies

The drug candidate arfolitixorin is a direct-acting folate that does not require metabolic conversion in the body. Studies have shown that arfolitixorin therefore achieves higher concentrations of active folate in tumor tissue compared to existing folate therapies, and clinical data demonstrate promising efficacy and safety.

* At the end of 2022, it was determined that the AGENT study did not achieve the goals agreed with the pharmaceutical authorities. The company has since conducted in-depth analyses of the extensive data generated in the phase III study, AGENT, which provided greater clarity on possible reasons why arfolitixorin did not show a statistically significant difference in efficacy compared to the current standard of care in the study.
