Novexel

Novexel is a speciality pharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of novel anti-bacterials designed to overcome the significant global problem of bacterial resistance. The ever increasing resistance to marketed antibiotics has led to a clear need for novel drugs that are active against multi-drug resistant bacteria. Novexel was created in December 2004 as an independent spin-out of the sanofi-aventis anti-infectives unit. Novexel has a team of 50 employees with significant experience in anti-infective research and development, who are located in Paris, France and Philadelphia, USA.
