Street Calls of the Week
THE WOODLANDS, TX - Autonomix Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMIX), a micro-cap medical device company currently valued at $6.24 million, announced Monday it has commenced a Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) preclinical study for its Sensing and RF Ablation System, which aims to treat pancreatic cancer pain. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a strong liquidity position with a current ratio of 4.57x, indicating solid short-term financial stability.
The study, being conducted at CBSET, a translational research institute near Boston, represents a required step in the company’s regulatory pathway toward potential FDA approval. GLP standards ensure reliability and integrity of data submitted for Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) applications. While InvestingPro analysis shows the company is quickly burning through cash, it maintains more cash than debt on its balance sheet, providing some runway for its development programs.
"The initiation of this study marks a critical milestone in our regulatory pathway towards potential approval," said Brad Hauser, CEO of Autonomix. "We remain on track to file our IDE and, if approved, commence clinical studies next year."
Autonomix’s technology is a catheter-based microchip sensing array designed to detect neural signals. The company aims to enable transvascular diagnosis and treatment of diseases involving the peripheral nervous system. While initially focused on pancreatic cancer pain management, the company states its platform could potentially address multiple therapeutic areas including cardiology, hypertension, and pain management. Analysts maintain an optimistic outlook, with price targets ranging from $5 to $8.20 per share. Get deeper insights into AMIX’s financial health and access additional ProTips with InvestingPro.

CBSET, where the study is being conducted, is an AAALAC-accredited, GLP-compliant facility with 40,000 square feet of research space including procedure rooms, imaging labs, and surgical suites.
According to the press release statement, Autonomix plans to submit its IDE application and potentially begin U.S. clinical trials in 2026 to support a De Novo FDA application. Investors should note the company’s next earnings report is scheduled for November 10, 2025, which may provide additional updates on the development timeline.
