Products

Influenza A small-molecule nucleoprotein inhibitor (clinical candidate)

A novel small-molecule inhibitor directed against influenza A nucleoprotein with in vitro activity against seasonal and highly pathogenic avian influenza strains and activity against strains with resistance to existing therapies; advanced to IND clearance.

Human rhinovirus polymerase inhibitor (preclinical candidate)

Small-molecule inhibitor targeting the conserved viral RNA polymerase with coverage across the three major HRV clades, intended to prevent virus-triggered exacerbations in asthma and COPD.

BK polyomavirus small-molecule inhibitor

Small-molecule inhibitor active against all four genotypes of BK polyomavirus intended for prevention or treatment of BKV-induced renal disease post-kidney transplant; acts on an intracellular target rather than neutralizing antibody mechanisms.

Adenovirus replication inhibitor for ocular and systemic infections

Small-molecule inhibitor that disrupts adenovirus replication with activity against serotypes causing conjunctivitis and epidemic keratoconjunctivitis, intended for ocular infections and severe systemic disease in immunocompromised patients.


Services

Internal discovery and development of small-molecule antiviral candidates from hit identification through IND-enabling studies and early clinical development.
