Context
Hemophilia is a rare disease due to a deficiency of clotting factor FVIII or FIX depending on whether it is hemophilia A or B. Usually, patients are treated with injection replacement therapy, which generates resistance in approximately 30% of patients.
Technology
We offer the first orally administrable chemical drug based on a repositioning approach.
Advantages
It is a non-invasive, inexpensive treatment that presents little risk of generating antibodies and therefore resistance.
State of progress
Following a screening of existing molecules, a hit has been identified for the coagulation of hemophilia plasma and an optimization work by structural analogy is in progress.
Applications
This treatment would target all types of hemophilia.
