Develops intranasal pherine candidates for psychiatric, women's-health, and cancer-supportive-care indications, while present revenue comes from sublicense and other arrangements. It sponsors development, relying on external trial and manufacturing providers and regional partners; it has no approved or marketed products.
Develops intranasal pherine candidates designed to modulate neural circuits without systemic drug exposure. Its named programs include fasedienol for social anxiety disorder, itruvone for major depressive disorder, refisolone for menopausal vasomotor symptoms, PH15 for mental-fatigue-related psychomotor impairment, and PH284 for cancer cachexia. AV-101 is held principally for partnering.
Operates from South San Francisco, with clinical and regulatory activity predominantly directed at the United States. It sponsors development while CROs run trials and CDMOs handle all manufacturing; fasedienol is licensed to AffaMed across parts of Asia while rights elsewhere are retained. There are no approved or marketed products, and revenue comes from sublicense and other arrangements. Further progress depends on controlled clinical evidence, regulatory agreement, financing, third-party execution, and partners.
