Limno Pharma, S.L.

New Drugs for ocular diseases

Description

Pharmaceutical company dedicated to the research and development of new drugs for the treatment of ophthalmic diseases, based on two exclusively licensed patents. We are specialized in retinal degeneration, diseases with high prevalence and scarce treatment. Our initial focus is on the treatment of two retinal degenerative diseases, retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and dry age-related macular degeneration (dry-AMD).

Our first product, LIM21, is a chemical derivative of a natural product which shows high efficacy decreasing the symptoms of RP and dry AMD in mouse models. The main competitive advantage of LIM21 over the only drug in the market, that are administered as intraocular injections, is the administration as eye drops.
