Nuritas Pharma: Life Changing Peptide Drug Discoveries for a Changing World

摘要

Peptides are the major signaling molecules in the human body (most bodily functions communicate via peptides) and as a result have both significant therapeutic potential and the highest probability of clinical success compared to other modalities. While there are now about 60 approved peptide drugs, we believe the landscape of opportunity is vast and largely unexplored. Enabled by artificial intelligence, our scientists are able to interrogate vast numbers of peptides and identify first-in-class therapeutics that meet or surpass industry standards, overcoming previous peptide delivery challenges. Drug Development & Delivery recently interviewed Nora Khaldi, PhD, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Nuritas, to discuss the company’s innovative approach to accelerating the discovery of novel therapeutic peptides that address unmet patient needs in multiple disease areas.
