Press releases

Quantum Genomics (Euronext Growth - FR0011648971 - ALQGC), biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of a new drug class that directly targets the brain to treat hypertension and heart failure, continues executing its 3-year strategic plan, « BAPAIs Fast Growth ».

The Company just obtained agreement from the Ethics Committee of Lisburn (United Kingdom) to start a new clinical study with extended-release firibastat tablets in order to select the final pharmaceutical formulation of the drug as early as 2019.

This clinical study will assess the pharmacokinetic parameters of firibastat in healthy subjects after a single dose of different extended-release tablets of firibastat and compare them with those obtain with the current formulation (immediate release capsules). The goal is to select a firibastat tablet formula that allows a once-daily treatment to replace the current twice-daily regimen.

The development of a once-daily pharmaceutical formulation dosing is important for firibastat because it will optimize patient adherence to treatment and simplify the development of firibastat associations with other antihypertensives agents.

The clinical study will be conducted in the United Kingdom by Quotient Sciences which Quantum Genomics selected for their expertise in pharmaceutical development and clinical pharmacology, the quality of its infrastructure and its presence in the United States and Europe. The results of this study will be available in the second quarter of 2019.
