Strong IP portfolio with U.S. exclusivity expected through 2028


AntagoNAT
Natural Antisense Transcript Inhibitors
6
Chemically modified single-strand oligonucleotides
Up-regulate expression of endogenous proteins
Extensive screening of over 400 gene targets
Demonstrated  up-regulation of genes related to genetic
diseases, cancer, neurological,metabolic disorders
Animal studies confirm increases of
Target mRNA

8 AntagoNATs have been tested in animals


7
New Class of Compounds Prevent
Neurodegenerative Disease Progression
Licensed world-wide rights from The Scripps Research
Institute to novel compounds that inhibit jun-N-terminal
kinases (JNK) (important for neuron survival).
Lead compound, a small molecule (SR-3306), could be
first drug to protect brain in Parkinson’s disease, MS,
ALS, and AD.
Current therapies are symptomatic, have untoward side
effects, lose effectiveness over time, or have risks
associated with surgery.
Inhibition of JNK to treat PD would be paradigm shifting
by preventing neurodegeneration and disease
progression.


8
Therapeutic Potential of JNK Inhibitors
Orally bioavailable, brain penetrant JNK inhibitors have
shown efficacy in two animal models of Parkinson’s disease
and represent first in class neuroprotective agents for the
treatment of PD
These JNK inhibitors have potential in all neurodegenerative
disease including AD, MS, ALS, and stroke
