Business Description
The company is a pioneer company in the field of gene-inactivating technology referred to as antisense and has developed a patented class of antisense compounds which may be useful in the treatment of a wide range of human diseases. The company also has developed new drug delivery technology which may be useful with many FDA-approved drugs as well as with its antisense compounds. The company's long-term product development program combines its NEU-GENE and CYTOPORTER technologies to produce combination drugs with potentional applications for many human diseases. The company has 19 issued patients and several patent applications covering the basic compositions of matter, methods of synthesis, and medical uses of NEU-GENE and CYTOPORTER compounds. Antisense technology has the potential to provide safe and effective treatment for a broad range of diseases. The company's new approach uses synthetic compounds designed to inactivate selected genetic sequences that underlie the disease process and thereby halt the disease.
