Azafaros to Present at BIO International Convention 2026
Azafaros, a private company building a portfolio to become a leader in lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), focused on addressing neurological symptoms, today announced that it will present at the 2026 BIO International Convention taking place in San Diego, USA, from June 22-25. The company’s presentation is scheduled for Monday, June 22 at 4:30 PM in Theater 4.
The presentation will highlight Azafaros’ progress in developing nizubaglustat, its lead investigational compound for the treatment of rare lysosomal storage disorders with neurological involvement, including GM1 and GM2 gangliosidoses (GM1/GM2) and Niemann-Pick type C disease (NPC).
Nizubaglustat is currently in two Phase 3 registrational studies (NAVIGATE) treating patients with GM1/GM2 and NPC and expects to report topline data from the studies in 2028.
“BIO provides an important opportunity to update our progress as we continue advancing nizubaglustat through late-stage clinical development,” said Stefano Portolano, CEO at Azafaros. “With substantial unmet need remaining in GM1 and GM2 gangliosidoses and NPC, we remain focused on executing our Phase 3 program and preparing for future regulatory interactions aimed at bringing this potential therapy to patients.”
