We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that is developing disease-modifying treatments for patients suffering from debilitating bone and other diseases with high unmet medical need. Our lead product candidate, palovarotene, is an oral small molecule that binds and activates retinoic acid receptor gamma (an RARg agonist), and has shown potent activity in preventing abnormal new bone formation as well as scar tissue formation (or fibrosis) in a variety of tissues in animal models. We are developing palovarotene for the treatment of Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) and Multiple Osteochondroma (MO) and have one Phase 3 trial and one Phase 2/3 trial, for two separate indications, planned to commence in 2017 with data read-outs planned in 2019 and 2020. We believe that if approved in FOP or MO, palovarotene could become the standard of care in either or both of these indications.
