ABIONYX Pharma, winner of the France 2030 Plan's 'i-Démo' call for projects, awarded €8.7 million from the French government to fight against Sepsis, the 3rd leading cause of death worldwide
TOULOUSE, France & WESTLAKE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb 20, 2025--
ABIONYX Pharma (FR0012616852 - ABNX - PEA PME eligible), a new generation biotech company dedicated to the discovery and development of innovative therapies based on the world's only natural recombinant apoA-I, announces today that its clinical development in sepsis has been selected as part of the 'i-Démo' call for projects under the France 2030 plan, operated by Bpifrance on behalf of the French government.
After 6 months of examining ABIONYX Pharma's CER-001 Sepsis project, a panel of experts was able to validate and objectify the quality of the project in its scientific, technological and clinical aspects.
The CER-001 Sepsis project represents a strategic cornerstone for ABIONYX Pharma, leveraging its unique expertise to use the only recombinant apoA-I protein in the treatment of the most severe inflammation in the human body.
The ABIONYX Pharma Sepsis project currently operates on two strategic fronts:
An integrated biomedicine approach: ABIONYX Pharma develops a combined bioproduction/biotherapy approach secured by proprietary patents until 2042 along the entire chain.
An innovative clinical strategy: circulating apoA-I collapses in situations of severe inflammation. Supplementation with recombinant human apoA-I in these critical situations enables to treat all types of patients, even immuno-depressed patients. Based on the very positive Phase 2a clinical results, the Phase 2b/3 study between the United States and Europe aims to confirm a significant reduction in mortality.
ABIONYX Pharma is the world leader in recombinant apoA-I, the result of 20 years of expertise and innovation in lipid metabolism, bioproduction and the clinical development of this unique bioproduct. With its exceptional know-how, ABIONYX Pharma demonstrated the safety, efficacy and therapeutic potential of apoA-I in critical indications, particularly in LCAT deficiency, a rare disease, and is now exploring the most severe inflammatory diseases such as cytokine storms and severe inflammation in ophthalmology and neurology.

Strategic merger: Agelec joins the Videlio group
The growing challenges of supervision, decision-making efficiency, and security for institutions and businesses have led Videlio, a major player in audiovisual and IT integration, to take a step forward in the development of a new strategic activity: control systems. This turning point is now taking place through a major merger with Agelec, the French leader in supervision and control solutions for sensitive infrastructure. This marks a defining moment for the Videlio group, confirming its ambition to offer a wider range of solutions that are among the most innovative on the market. The Group's goal is to stay as close as possible to its customers' operational needs and uses by offering them solutions that are easy to use, secure, and effective. Industrial synergy between two leading players AGELEC stands out today as the specialist in supervision, control, and visualization solutions dedicated to critical environments, meeting the constant demand for availability and security of sensitive infrastructure. Its control or supervision rooms, security stations, crisis rooms, and command or surveillance centers demonstrate Agelec's recognized experience in meeting these very high standards. This expertise has attracted leading clients. Videlio and Agelec will work together to strengthen this expertise by combining their operational and commercial resources to give new scope to this activity within the Group. Their ambition is to develop a model capable of combining the best technologies in open architectures that guarantee both security and interoperability. This project will focus in particular on the development of advanced collaborative incident management solutions, agile and robust architectures with AVoIP, and intelligent video walls. Videlio and Agelec will also work together on today's major challenges, with innovative offerings in AI, cybersecurity, augmented reality, and more. Xavier Renaud, President of Videlio: 'Agelec is a leader in control rooms, particularly through its mastery of the technological and operational complexities of this type of installation. We are very pleased with this merger, which strengthens Videlio's position as the French leader in specialized high value-added audiovisual integration, while expanding our scope of activity in a market in which we strongly believe. We enthusiastically welcome the Agelec teams and their leader Guillaume Guérin, who has built a solid, innovative company that is virtually indispensable in its ecosystem." Guillaume Guérin, President of Agelec: 'The energy and human values that drive Videlio were decisive factors in our choice. We share the same vision of audiovisual integration, which brings high standards and value creation for the end customer. Our common conviction is to place usability, ergonomics, and business intelligence above technology. Joining Videlio is obviously an opportunity to take a step forward, but above all, it is an opportunity to amplify our innovation momentum in intelligent and open systems, to better support our customers as they face the constant evolution of their critical challenges."

Top chef Ryan Honey reveals the cheap place he loves - and the overrated chain he would avoid
Every Thursday, our Money blog team interviews chefs from around the UK, hearing about their cheap food hacks and more. This week, we chat to Ryan Honey, head chef at The Duke in Henley-on-Thames. The best chef in the UK is… Mark Birchall at Moor Hall, hands down. The guy has just bagged three Michelin stars, and if that doesn't make him the best in the country right now, I don't know what does. His food is next-level, the kind of stuff that makes chefs jealous. If you're not dreaming of eating at Moor Hall, are you even serious about food? Check today's Money blog The worst type of behaviour in kitchens is… people who walk in thinking they're Gordon Ramsay before they've even mastered chopping an onion. I once had a guy in an interview tell me he didn't believe in "kitchen hierarchy" and that he'd "rather collaborate than take orders". Safe to say, he didn't make it past the trial shift. A kitchen runs on discipline and respect - if you don't get that, you're in the wrong industry. The one thing you never, ever want to see on a menu again is... snails. I know, I know, the French will come for me, but I just don't get it. They're chewy, they taste like whatever you drown them in, and honestly, I'd rather eat the garlic butter on its own. Some things just don't need to be on a plate - snails are one of them. A tip that non-chefs might not know to make them a better cook or make a certain ingredient better… salt your meat way earlier than you think you should. Like, hours before. Let it sit and soak in. Most home cooks season just before cooking, but if you give salt time to do its thing, the flavour goes deep, and you get a better crust. Also, stop being scared of butter. It makes everything better. The one thing you hate that some customers do is… ordering a steak well done and then complaining it's tough. Mate, you just asked me to cremate a £40 piece of meat - what did you expect? Also, people who rush the kitchen when they can see we're at full tilt. You came for a good meal, not a drive-thru burger - relax, have a drink, and trust us to do our job. Read more from this series: One cheap place I love to eat is... The Bird in Hand in Sandhurst. It's one of those old-school, no-nonsense pubs where the food is actually good rather than just being "good for a pub". I always get the satay chicken kebabs with chips and salad -simple, tasty, and always bang on. One way we save money is... cutting waste by only ordering what we need daily, we make sure everything gets used, and negotiating hard with suppliers. Could the government help? Of course - lower VAT for hospitality, better support for small businesses, and maybe a bit of regulation on wholesale food pricing wouldn't go amiss. But until then, we just have to keep adapting. My tip for preventing waste is… use everything. Peel, stems, bones, offcuts - there's always a way to get more out of your ingredients. We dehydrate veg peelings and turn them into powders for seasoning, use bones for stocks, and any decent trimmings go into pies or terrines. Waste isn't just bad for the planet; it's literally throwing money in the bin. My favourite restaurant chain is… Miller & Carter. It's just solid, well-cooked steak. If I'm sharing, it's the côte de boeuf every time. But if we're talking about overrated chains? Nando's. Sorry, but it's just chicken with some decent seasoning - why are we all acting like it's some kind of life-changing experience? One ingredient you should never skimp on is… a proper olive oil. A cheap one is pointless - it's like drinking bad wine. But I'll give rapeseed oil some credit; a good cold-pressed one can be great for cooking at high temps. Still, for dressings, finishing, or dipping bread? Olive oil all the way. You get what you pay for.
