Neurosterix

Neurosterix is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing allosteric modulators for the treatment of neurological disorders. Our drug discovery and development platform identifies and develops allosteric modulators — molecules that increase or decrease the activity of target receptors by binding outside of the “active site” where endogenous ligands and traditional drugs operate. Through this platform, Neurosterix’s novel drug candidates have the potential to provide medicines with improved efficacy, safety and tolerability for patient communities suffering from underserved neurological disorders.
