Myovant Sciences is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing innovative therapies for women`s health diseases and other endocrine-related disorders. Myovant`s lead product candidate is relugolix, an oral, once-daily, small molecule that acts as a GnRH receptor antagonist. Myovant is in the process of initiating five international Phase 3 clinical trials for relugolix, two in women with heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids, two in women with endometriosis-associated pain, and one in men with advanced prostate cancer. Myovant is simultaneously developing MVT-602, an analog of kisspeptin, for the treatment of female infertility as part of assisted reproduction. Over time, the company intends to expand its development pipeline to include other potential treatments for women`s health and endocrine-related disorders.
We are dedicated to developing and commercializing effective and broadly applicable interventions for food allergy. Food allergy is a disease of the immune system that is triggered by an exceptionally broad range of commonly allergenic foods such as cow’s milk, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, shellfish and even sesame. In a perfect world, the human immune system would adapt to all foods. However, in tens of millions of people, the immune system wrongly recognizes some food proteins as harmful and does not adapt. We envision a world where, with help from oral immunotherapy, the immune system can adapt to nearly all food allergens. And we built our inspiration into our name—Alladapt. Alladapt was co-founded in 2018 in Palo Alto, California, by allergist and protein biochemist Kari Nadeau, MD, PhD, and biotechnology entrepreneur, Ashley Dombkowski, PhD. Academic clinical research conducted by Dr. Nadeau has demonstrated that a food allergic immune system in an individual person can be receptive to remodeling by gradually increasing exposure, under tightly controlled clinical supervision, to the proteins that activate the inappropriate cascade of reactions. This work, combined with research illuminating disease mechanisms and pathways, led the founders to envision a biopharmaceutical intervention capable of addressing food allergy provoked by a wide-ranging set of antigens. Food allergy is a serious disease, with potentially life-threatening consequences. The disease has grown dramatically in recent years and now affects more than 6 million children¹ and 26 million adults² in the United States alone. Importantly, about half of people with food allergy are reactive to multiple foods, which further increases the risk of anaphylaxis due to accidental ingestion. The chronic, unpredictable components of this disease can elevate anxiety in patients and their families, and place extreme limitations on their lives. It is our goal to help patients experience more of life’s magical moments with less fear and greater confidence.
