Bionure Details
Bionure is a clinical-stage biotech company developing therapies for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases for which no treatment options are nowadays available. We focus in two conditions in which patients suffer from vision impairment and blindness, paralysis and even death: acute optic neuritis and neuromyelitis optica.Our lead candidate ACT01 (BN201) is a small molecule, new chemical entity, first-in-class drug that has been shown to promote neuroprotection and remyelination in several animal models of damage. BN201 has been granted orphan designation for acute optic neuritis in Europe and the US and the product is now in clinical Phase 2 (study ACUITY) in France. With patients in mind, we have built an extraordinary, committed team of experts in neuro-ophthalmology and neuro-inflammation, passionate about bringing meaningful therapies to society with the aim of changing the life of thousands of people.
