Epirium Bio states that restoring and enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis and function can have broad therapeutic benefit across diseases marked by deficits in these pathways. The company says it uncovered unique biological insights that led to a novel, previously undescribed pharmacological approach, and believes its IP-protected small-molecule platform can stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis and function, with its lead candidate already showing this effect in early human studies and initial focus on rare diseases.
SourceEpirium Bio states that it has uncovered unique insights into the biology of mitochondrial biogenesis and function and believes deficits in these pathways drive disease. The company says these findings support a novel, previously undescribed pharmacological approach using IP-protected small molecules to stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis and function, restore tissue bioenergetics, and treat multiple diseases, beginning with rare diseases.
SourceEpirium Bio presents the view that deficits in mitochondrial biogenesis and function are clinically important drivers of disease and that these deficits can be addressed with a novel, previously undescribed pharmacological approach. The company says its small-molecule platform can stimulate mitochondrial biogenesis and function, and it positions this mechanism as the basis for developing therapeutics, beginning with rare diseases and informed by earlier observations linking epicatechin-related compounds to improved mitochondrial function and density.
