Develops oral small-molecule treatments for diabetes and other chronic diseases, centered on cadisegliatin, an adjunct-to-insulin candidate for type 1 diabetes. The clinical-stage business has no marketed drug sales and derives revenue primarily from collaboration and license arrangements.
Develops oral small-molecule treatments for diabetes and other chronic diseases, with cadisegliatin as its central program. The liver-selective glucokinase activator is being studied alongside insulin for type 1 diabetes in the U.S. Phase 3 CATT1 trial.
The business is concentrated around clinical development rather than marketed medicines: it has not generated drug-sales revenue, and collaboration and license arrangements have supplied revenue. HPP737 is licensed worldwide to Newsoara Biopharma for development and commercialization.
Progress depends on CATT1 enrollment, clinical outcomes, regulatory review, and potential approval. FDA previously placed the program on clinical hold before lifting it after the company's response.
