Amylyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMLX) is a pioneering biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Focused on the development of novel therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, Amylyx has garnered attention primarily for AMX0035, an experimental therapy designed to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other neurodegenerative disorders. The company operates in a single segment dedicated to the research and development of these groundbreaking treatments.
The company’s flagship product, AMX0035, has made significant strides in the treatment of ALS. It was previously marketed under the names RELYVRIO and ALBRIOZA in the U.S. and Canada, respectively. However, based on recent data from the Phase 3 PHOENIX trial, Amylyx has voluntarily discontinued the marketing authorizations for these products. Despite this setback, the company remains committed to its mission, with ongoing studies and upcoming trials aimed at exploring AMX0035's efficacy in other conditions such as Wolfram syndrome and Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP).
Recently, Amylyx has reported promising interim data from the Phase 2 HELIOS clinical trial of AMX0035 in adults with Wolfram syndrome. These preliminary results demonstrated improvements in pancreatic function, glycemic control, and vision, indicating significant promise for this therapy. Additionally, the Phase 3 ORION trial is currently evaluating AMX0035 for PSP, with an interim analysis expected in mid-2025.
Amylyx is also advancing AMX0114, an antisense oligonucleotide targeting calpain-2 for the treatment of ALS. The company is preparing to initiate a clinical trial for AMX0114 in the second half of 2024. With a strategic focus and substantial pipeline, Amylyx is dedicated to bringing innovative treatments to the neurodegenerative disease community.
Financially, Amylyx reported $88.6 million in net product revenue for Q1 2024, and maintains a strong cash position with $373.3 million in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments as of March 31, 2024. This robust financial standing provides the company with a runway into 2026, supporting its unwavering commitment to its pipeline and upcoming clinical milestones.

The findings were published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation Insight.
