Join Jay Hennock, CEO of Novapep, as he unveils the company’s mission to address unmet medical needs through peptide-based therapies.
Novapep, an Australian/US biotech, has developed a patented peptide structure called biparediteTM as an oral inflammatory bowel disease therapy, which will be a cost effective first-in-class drug. Biparetide has been shown in animals to be as effective as expensive, injectable biologic drugs (a US$20 billion market) and superior to corticosteroids, but with minimal expected side effects.
This video provides a compelling overview of their research and development efforts, focusing on inflammatory skin disorders, bowel disease, and sepsis, and their impact on global health.
