UK clinical-stage specialty pharma firm Actimed Therapeutics has appointed Dr Fabio Dorigotti as chief medical officer (CMO) following the retirement of previous CMO, Dr Frank Misselwitz.
Prior to joining Actimed, Dr Dorigotti was CMO of Swiss biopharmaceutical company Quercis Pharma. He brings over 25 years of pharmaceutical industry experience spanning the full breadth of the clinical development process.
“I am very pleased to welcome Fabio as our new Chief Medical Officer as we focus on advancing our lead candidate ACM001.1 (S-pindolol benzoate) for cancer cachexia into late-stage clinical development. Fabio brings a wealth of relevant knowledge and experience and a proven track record of success. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our retiring CMO Frank Misselwitz for his invaluable contribution to Actimed over the last several years and am delighted that he will retain his role as a Non-Executive Director on the Board of the company,” commented Actimed chief executive Robin Bhattqcherjee.
