Addex Therapeutics Ltd — Cyborg Score 4/10

Mixed
Biopharmaceuticals / Clinical-Stage Drug Development

Strategic Profile

The company has license and collaboration agreements with Janssen Pharmaceuticals Inc. for mGlu2 PAM compounds and with Indivior PLC for GABAB PAM compounds. Lead drug candidates include ADX71149, developed in partnership with Janssen for epilepsy treatment, and dipraglurant for Parkinson's disease levodopa-induced dyskinesia and post-stroke/TBI recovery. The partnership model provides both clinical validation and funding runway.

Cyborg Score Rationale

Addex operates as an early-stage biotech with strong academic partnerships (Janssen, Indivior) and a well-defined allosteric modulator platform. However, the company is pre-commercial with limited revenue, very few employees, and minimal cash position. Clinical-stage risks are substantial.
