A novel class of drug candidates for neurodegenerative diseases

Drug Target Review

How does morADC technology combine the properties of small molecules and monoclonal antibodies to enhance anti-aggregation effects for CNS applications? The morADC are able to cross the blood-brain barrier more efficiently and offer higher potency than individual parent molecules.

New avenues for rare disease treatment

Drug Target Review

Almost every one of us will know someone with a neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s. It is less common to know someone with a rare genetic disease; but while individually rare, collectively they have an enormous impact. This will, in turn, slow the progression of, or even halt, the disease.

A new drug approval for the vanguard of RNA-targeted small molecules

Dark Matter Blog

A few years ago, at Arrakis Therapeutics, we set out to conquer a strange new territory, drugging RNA structures with small molecules. The efficiency of exon 7 inclusion in the mature SMN2 mRNA varies significantly among patients and poor inclusion efficiency correlates with higher disease severity. We will replace it.”

The Future of Drug Discovery: Tackling the Undruggable with New Biotechnologies

DrugBank

This is a game-changer, especially in the fight against cancer and other complex diseases. These multifunctional small molecules are like tiny spies, hijacking the body’s natural protein degradation system to remove unwanted proteins. This can potentially correct the root causes of some diseases at the genetic level.
