FogPharma
Purpose
FogPharma® is a biopharmaceutical company pioneering a new class of precision medicines potentially applicable to all therapeutic targets, including those previously considered “undruggable.”
Vision
Helicon peptides are a next-generation class of therapeutics that holds the potential to revolutionize medicine by making all or nearly all targets druggable. Achieving this long-standing goal of the entire pharmaceutical industry makes it possible for disease biology alone to determine which targets get drugged.
Mission
FogPharma’s proprietary hyperstabilized α-helical peptides (Helicon™ peptides) combine the targeting strength and specificity of antibodies with the broad tissue distribution, intracellular target engagement and oral dosing optionality of small molecules. The Company’s Helicon peptide drug discovery engine integrates directed evolution, proprietary helix hyperstabilization chemistry, highly multiplexed drug optimization technology, artificial intelligence including deep learning and machine learning, structure-based drug discovery, and multiscale manufacturing to rapidly discover Helicon peptide therapeutics against important, previously intractable targets with broad applicability to virtually all disease areas.
