Target Portfolio >>Unment Needs
The unmet need for autoimmune therapies is very large
  • ~20 million Americans suffer from over 80 different autoimmune diseases, including:
    • multiple sclerosis
    • psoriasis
    • rheumatoid arthritis
    • type-1 diabetes mellitus
  • Current treatments are inadequate.
  • The challenge for drug discovery has been the need to suppress or delete the disease-causing autoreactive T cells without compromising the ability of the remainder of the immune system to protect against infections or cancers.
  • The commercial opportunities are enormous
  • Example: the four leading MS treatments – all injectables – generated over $4 billion in revenues last year.
