Profile

Amylyx Pharmaceuticals, Inc.AMLXHealth Care

Develops clinical-stage therapies for endocrine and neurodegenerative diseases, led by avexitide in post-bariatric hypoglycemia. With RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA withdrawn, the business is centered on pipeline execution rather than commercial sales.

Develops drug candidates for endocrine conditions and neurodegenerative diseases, with avexitide at the center of the current pipeline after the withdrawal of RELYVRIO/ALBRIOZA from the US and Canadian markets.

Current work is concentrated in clinical development rather than commercial sales. Avexitide targets post-bariatric hypoglycemia following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, while AMX0035, AMX0114, and AMX0318 keep the pipeline tied to rare endocrine and neurodegenerative indications.

Execution depends on late-stage trial results, regulatory review, and rebuilding around acquired avexitide assets after the PHOENIX ALS trial failed its endpoints. Operations are centered in Cambridge, with founder co-CEOs still running the company.
