French biotech company TxCell (Euronext Paris: TXCL) has received the latest 1 million-euro milestone payment ($1.13 million) from the OvaSave collaboration option with Trizell.

This payment has come as the result of the first patient enrolment in the Phase IIb trial of TxCell’s lead candidate OvaSave for refractory Crohn’s disease. Topline results are expected at the end of 2016 or early 2017.

The OvaSave Phase IIb study, named CATS29 (Crohn’s And Treg Study), is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-dose and multi-injection, four parallel group study. The trial is conducted in six countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy and United Kingdom) and has been designed to include 160 severe refractory Crohn’s disease patients.
