| 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.
