Collaboration scope

AGC supplied end-to-end small‑molecule CDMO support for NTX‑083, an Alzheimer’s disease drug candidate, handling process development, GMP manufacturing and regulatory support from early development stages. AGC established the drug substance manufacturing process and completed the CMC documentation required for a US IND application.

Operational execution

The programme combined AGC’s Yokohama Technical Center for process development with its Chiba Site for GMP manufacturing to enable a smooth transition from development to clinical supply.

Regulatory and timeline
