Biophytis: Biophytis Announces its Participation at the BIO International Convention in San Diego from the 13th to the 16th of June

PARIS, FRANCE / CAMBRIDGE, MA / ACCESSWIRE / May 12, 2022 / Biophytis SA (NasdaqCM:BPTS, Euronext Growth Paris:ALBPS), (“Biophytis” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of therapeutics that slow the degenerative processes associated with aging, including severe respiratory failure in patients suffering from COVID-19, today announces it will participate, represented by its CEO Stanislas Veillet and its Business Development Director Benoit Canolle, at the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) International Convention to be held in San Diego from the 13th to the 16th of June 2022, alongside thousands of world leaders in biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry.

Biophytis’ participation in BIO is aligned with the Company’s strategy to partner with global or regional players to license and co-develop its core assets. More particularly, the Company is actively seeking partners to continue the development of Sarconeos (BIO101) in Phase 2/3 in Sarcopenia and to distribute the product in COVID-19-related respiratory failure if Phase 2/3 is successful and emergency use authorisation is granted.

Biophytis now has a rich portfolio of clinical and pre-clinical assets in age-related indications:

  • on COVID-19 – COVA project in phase 2/3 for which data are expected in the third quarter of 2022;
  • on Sarcopenia – SARA project with promising Phase 2 results (SARA-INT) and a Phase 2/3 in preparation; and
  • on Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) – MACA project with a full pre-clinical package.

In addition to these projects in age-related diseases, Biophytis has built a portfolio of assets in rare neuromuscular diseases targeting Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA). In DMD, our drug candidate, which has obtained orphan drug status in Europe and the United States and support from the AFM-Telethon in France, is ready to enter clinical development in these two regions, having obtained authorisation to start a phase 1-2 clinical study in young non-ambulatory children suffering from respiratory failure. This MYODA clinical study could start late 2022 or early 2023, depending on the evolution of the pandemic.

Stanislas Veillet, CEO of Biophytis, said: “We are very pleased to be able to participate once again in these annual events which are crucial for the development of biotechnology companies. BIO is the world’s leading partnering event in this sector. Our presence there will allow us not only to continue the discussions we have initiated and to meet the main private players in the sector from the different countries, but also to establish and consolidate relationships with patient associations and other important members of our ecosystem. Our objective remains to find partners who will accompany us in the co-development and commercialization of our products in their various indications.”
