Note: WHO, governments and health institutes are urgently seeking methods to prevent future catastrophic flavivirus outbreaks affecting millions (annually >40% of the global population at risk, resulting in ~395M infections, >25,000 deaths of which mainly children, 750.000 disability-adjusted life years and >€9B direct & indirect costs). As there are no effective treatments or vaccines available, ATLAS will provide a breakthrough in broad-spectrum antivirals: the first-in-class drug to combat the global health emergency of flaviviral infections. In the ATLAS project, Protinhi will finalize clinical trial-enabling studies and pharmaceutical development and obtain proof-of-concept in humans by conducting Phase I and Phase IIa clinical trials against the most common flavivirus: dengue. This will put the company in an excellent position to attract interest from pharmaceutical companies (e.g. Gilead, J&J, MSD) for a strategic partnership for late clinical development and commercialization.
