Chase Therapeutics is an early-stage, product-based specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the development of better treatments for brain disease.
NeuroTherpia develop new therapies for diseases with an underlying component of neuroinflammation. Initial research has led to the development of our lead compound NTRX-07. NTRX-07 (previously known as MDA7) has been shown to decrease activation of microglial cells in the brain. Decreasing activation of these cells leads to decreased inflammation and decreased injury to surrounding nerve cells. Decreasing this inflammation can treat and even prevent the development of neuropathic pain in settings of nerve injury or chemotherapy. Recent work has shown that blocking this inflammation is also important in reversing the effects seen in Alzheimer's disease. We are currently doing preclinical safety studies and plan on studying NTRX-07 in humans in 2016.
Chase Pharmaceuticals (CPC) is engaged in the identification and clinical development of medically improved, commercially promising, treatments for central nervous system (CNS) disease. The Company was incorporated in 2007 to link emerging technical opportunities in the basic neurosciences to the expanding medical needs of those with neuropsychiatric disease. Operations thus focus on selecting product candidates to license-in, adding value by advancing towards global registration, and licensing-out to commercial partners. There success reflects an exceptional ability to select promising drug candidates, intimate knowledge of the development process as well as our ability to devise the most efficient path to regulatory approval. Since inception, CPC has sought to develop novel compounds that could improve the treatment of AD and related neurodegenerative disorders. Alzheimer’s disease constitutes the largest unmet medical need in neuropsychiatry. No emerging therapies have clearly demonstrated the potential to fulfill this medical need. Symptoms include an increasing loss of memory and other cognitive functions later combined with a variety of neuropsychiatric and behavioral disturbances. Progression is relentless, typically leading to death within 10 to 15 years. AD is now recognized as the third leading killer in the U.S. It is estimated that the 37 million afflicted worldwide cost society over $600 billion annually. As the population ages, this burden will rapidly climb to unsustainable levels. Although US sales of Alzheimer’s disease medications last year topped $4.7 billion, none of the current treatments improve symptoms more than marginally. Moreover, tolerability is poor, dose titration prolonged, and dropout rates high. Chase founders have invented and patented a unique combination of proven, currently marketed pharmaceuticals that we believe will benefit the symptomatic treatment of AD.
Satoris develops tests for neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Multiple Sclerosis, and Diabetic Neuropathy. They're committed to developing and commercializing neurodiagnostic tests that yield the earliest, most accurate, and most clinically relevant diagnoses, so that healthcare costs can be reduced while patient care becomes even more effective.
