Business Overview
- We incorporated our startup both in Hyderabad, India five years back and in Foothill Ranch, California, USA one year ago.
- Our co-founders are a team of 5 experienced PhDs and a medical doctor with clinical research experience in 3 multi-national pharma companies. We also have a woman co-founder (an Indian national) with an MMS degree. We have also hired an experienced auditor (in India) /CPA (in the USA) to help us in regulatory filings with respective government authorities. We also have an experienced business advisor (an Indian national).

- Currently developing 3 new chemical entities (NCEs): Enhanced Naproxen (E-Naproxen), Enhanced irinotecan (E-Irinotecan), and Enhanced Aspirin (E-Aspirin)
- Our initial focus is on the US market and we will bring our products to India and other major markets once we gain respectable sales figures in the US market.
- Planning to develop these NCEs in the USA through the most economical (<USD 10 million) and shortest (<1.5–2.5 years) USFDA’s 505 (b) (2) regulatory route, which also grants 3-5 years exclusivity along with approval.
- Currently, our NCEs are in the pre-clinical stage and will get all the regulatory approvals as per the requirement.
- After securing the required funding (or equivalent amount in INR), we will take up the development of our first product.
- Our startup was among the top 60 startups selected for acceleration under South Korea’s latest K-Startup Grand Challenge Program. Our CSO attended this acceleration program in Korea.
- We have already obtained three patents (US, Canadian and Indian patents) on Enhanced Naproxen and Enhanced Aspirin and we will file provisional patent applications on Enhanced Irinotecan as soon as we secure the required seed funding.
