Immunic Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing selective oral immunology therapies to treat chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The company's pipeline includes three small molecule products. The lead program, IMU-838, is a selective immune modulator that blocks the enzyme DHODH, inhibiting the metabolism of activated immune cells and exhibiting antiviral effects. It is being developed for multiple sclerosis, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and primary sclerosing cholangitis. IMU-935, a selective inverse agonist of the transcription factor RORγt, targets psoriasis, castration-resistant prostate cancer, and Guillain-Barré syndrome. Additionally, IMU-856 aims to restore intestinal barrier function for diseases involving bowel barrier dysfunction.
