As a result, Pierre Courteille, who held the CCO post, will be focusing on business development activities and is appointed chief business officer (CBO).

Abivax noted that it is strengthening its expertise in the commercial and business development field to foster the evolution of the company towards future commercialization of obefazimod, its first-in-class small molecule that has demonstrated safety and anti-inflammatory activity in ulcerative colitis (UC).
