The Company’s lead product candidate, azelaprag, is an orally available small molecule that has been well-tolerated in over 265 individuals in seven Phase 1 clinical trials to date. The Company is also developing orally available, brain-penetrant inhibitors of NLRP3, a key driver of neuroinflammation, which is linked to many diseases including obesity.

The Company was incorporated in 2015 in the State of Delaware and is headquartered in Richmond, California.

On September 25, 2024, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) in which the Company issued and sold 11,000,000 shares of its common stock, at a public offering price of $18.00 per share and received approximately $179.6 million in net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commission of approximately $13.9 million and offering expenses of approximately $4.4 million.
