GlycoMimetics Inc
GlycoMimetics, Inc. engages in the discovery and development of novel glycomimetic drugs to address unmet medical needs resulting from diseases in which carbohydrate biology plays a key role. The company is headquartered in Rockville, Maryland and currently employs 52 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2014-01-10. The company is developing a pipeline of glycomimetics, which are small molecules that mimic the structure of carbohydrates involved in biological processes, to inhibit disease-related functions of carbohydrates, such as the roles they play in inflammation, cancer, and infection. Its drug candidates include Uproleselan, GMI-1359, GMI-1687, and Galectin Antagonists. The company is developing Uproleselan, a specific E-selectin inhibitor, to be used in combination with chemotherapy to treat patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Its GMI-1359 targets both E-selectin and a chemokine receptor known as CXCR4. The company has designed an antagonist of E-selectin, GMI-1687, that is suitable for subcutaneous administration. The company has designed various small-molecule glycomimetic antagonists of galectin-3, including a product candidate that has demonstrated oral bioavailability.
