Alentis
Alentis Therapeutics discovers and develops novel medications to treat advanced liver diseases, such as liver fibrosis, cirrhosis and liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC).
Alentis has in-licensed platform technologies and monoclonal antibodies which are the result of more than a decade of research from the University of Strasbourg and Inserm, the French National Institutes of Health and the Mount Sinai Hospital, New York.
The portfolio is based on profound knowledge and expertise in liver disease, unique patient-derived model systems and the discovery of a novel, very fundamental mechanism of action underlying these diseases.
Alentis has lead monoclonal antibodies which show consistent compelling efficacy and safety in patient-derived cell and animal models.
Furthermore, Alentis has a proprietary discovery platform enabling fast-track discovery and development of compounds and targets that are relevant in the pathology of late stage liver disease and carcinogenesis.
