Who we are
Algernon Pharmaceuticals is a clinical stage pharmaceutical development company focused on the areas of non–alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), chronic kidney disease (CKD), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Algernon’s key compounds were identified using a drug repurposing strategy.
Our Process

Repurposing offers several benefits over traditional drug development including a reduction in investment and risk, shorter research periods and a longer active patent life. Algernon has protected its lead compounds with both method of use and new composition of matter patents for their derivatives and analogues.
