Headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, ATXA aims to develop novel therapies for the treatment of cardiopulmonary indications. ATXA seeks to advance clinical trials and secure marketing authorization for therapies that display significant improvements over existing standard-of-care and address unmet medical needs.
Through our R&D, ATXA has built a pipeline of novel, highly selective small molecule drugs and has validated their efficacy potential in preclinical models of cardiopulmonary, acute pulmonary inflammation, oncology, and other diseases.
Our current focus is the development of our lead pipeline compound NTP42 for the treatment of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH), where we aim to offer improved treatment options to the prescribing physician and new hope for the PAH patient.
In addition to its external investors, ATXA has received substantial grants from Enterprise Ireland, and through the European Union’s prestigious Horizon 2020 SME Instrument funding scheme.
Our Drug Pipeline is protected by a growing global patent estate and we have secured Orphan Designation from the EMA (Europe) and the FDA (USA) for our lead drug NTP42 for our initial target indication Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH).
