About Antibe Therapeutics Inc.
Antibe Therapeutics Inc. develops safer medicines for pain and
inflammation. These medicines are based on Nobel Prize-winning medical
research highlighting the crucial role of gaseous mediators, chemical
substances produced in the human body to regulate a range of fundamental
cellular processes. The Corporation's drug design approach involves
chemically linking an existing off-patent drug ("base drug") to an
Antibe-patented, hydrogen sulfide-releasing molecule. For medical
conditions characterized by inflammation, pain or vascular dysfunction,
this design approach can efficiently produce improved versions of
existing drugs.
