Impact That Matters
Therapeutic Research In Accelerated Discovery (TRIAD)TRIAD = Academia + Government + Industry
TRIAD Partners
Our TRIAD partners include innovative biotech & pharmaceutical companies, award-winning researchers at top-tier universities, and those spanning the drug discovery, drug development, and diagnostics continuum for mito research.
Partnerships vary depending on research goals, milestones met in preclinical or clinical development, and strategic alliance agreements.
TRIAD & GRIN
As part of TRIAD, in 2013, the Global Registry for Inherited Neuropathies (GRIN) was developed to conduct patient-focused research & development for treatments and cures. The patient voice is at the forefront of all we do. By incorporating the patient voice from the beginning, our research programs have the greatest potential for success. HNF funds research with one goal in mind; advancing to clinical trials for Mito research.
TRIAD Council
The TRIAD Council is composed of CMT thought leaders, experts, and consultants engaged in collaborative planning and decision-making to provide regular guidance and direction to our research strategy. This network of professionals reviews grant proposals, provides expert guidance, and assesses project outcomes to advance therapeutic development for Mito CMTs.

HNF participates and supports an advocacy role by providing real-world data to the FDA and other stakeholders. Our critical data facilitates improved knowledge of the lived experience of Mito CMTs patients and the advancement of clinical development.
Pharnext’s lead PLEODRUG © for treatment of CMT1
Pharnext completed patient enrollment for the international Phase 3 clinical trial of PXT3003, Pharnext’s lead PLEODRUG ©, for treatment of CMT1A.
Pharnext Announces Pleotherapy Proof of Concept in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Type 1A
PARIS, December 18th, 2014 – Pharnext SAS today announced the proof of concept of its pleotherapy research and development approach based on a proprietary network pharmacology platform that identifies synergic combinations of drugs already approved for other diseases. Indeed, Pharnext’s lead pleodrug, PXT-3003, has shown positive results both in preclinical and Phase 2 clinical studies published today in the Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases.
Using Zebrafish to Search for Therapeutics for CMT2A
Research on CMT is global, and covers both laboratory and clinical studies. It is critically important to be aware of what is happening elsewhere as well as in the USA because it can have implications for what we do and fund at the HNF.
Hot off the press
Some recent papers on Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease go to show that we are steadily and impressively peeling back the complexity of the biology even though it is a relatively common rare disease with several thousand publications on it.
