ProJenX is a clinical stage biotechnology company with novel, brain-penetrant, targeted therapies to address debilitating brain diseases, with an initial focus on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
ProJenX was created out of a long-term research collaboration between Project ALS and Columbia University in order to rapidly develop and commercialize its lead therapeutic candidate, prosetin, for people with ALS. Prosetin is an oral, brain-penetrant, MAP4 kinase inhibitor targeting endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-mediated motor neuron death.
At the heart of ProJenX’s approach is an innovative, patient-specific, cell-based drug discovery platform that can be leveraged to identify targeted, small molecule therapies for ALS and other currently untreatable brain diseases.
