ZYTOPROTEC AT A GLANCE
Our mission is to make a novel therapeutic approach a reality in PD – an area where clinicians and patients saw disappointingly little innovation in decades.
Zytoprotec, a biomedical company founded in 2007, has consistently moved its lead product – PDprotec® – from basic research through preclinical and clinical development. The product is currently prepared to enter a pivotal Phase III clinical trial in 2022.
The Company is lead by a management team that combines extensive expertise in the renal business, in financing and Venture Capital, as well as in nephrology and clinical development.
