PaxMedica Reports First Patient Treated with PAX-101(Suramin) for Fatal African Sleeping Sickness Infection

Howard Weisman, CEO of PaxMedica, commented, "This first use of PAX-101 to treat a critically ill patient with Stage 1 HAT infection is an important milestone for the company following years of investment in the formulation and commercial scale-up of Suramin, the active pharmaceutical ingredient of PAX-101, with the company's supply chain partners. We were contacted by the government of Malawi after sustained shortages of IV Suramin in the region in the past year, and we could not ignore their pleas for help. Responding to this extraordinary request demonstrates our commitment to provide this essential medicine to some of the world's most vulnerable people."
