Develops therapies for hematologic diseases involving abnormal red blood cell production and iron metabolism.
Develops therapies for hematologic diseases involving abnormal red blood cell production and iron metabolism.
Develops drugs in-licensed rather than discovered in-house: bitopertin comes from Roche, which dropped it for a different disease. Money to run trials comes from investors until an approved product sells. Rare-disease drugs treat few patients, so they usually carry high prices.
Moat: none (IP / patents). Clinical-stage biotech targeting underserved rare hematologic diseases, with no approved products yet.
