Development of a novel class of therapeutics for PTSD treatment and other neurodegenerative disorders
ReST Therapeutics aims to develop FENM, a novel NMDA receptor-targeting therapy for PTSD and Alzheimer's, with plans for clinical trials and expanding its drug pipeline by 2027.
Projectdetails
Introduction
ReST Therapeutics is a French biotech company founded in late 2020 that develops breakthrough therapies to treat complex central nervous system disorders, in particular, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) under its various forms, followed by Alzheimer Disease (AD).
Lead Candidate
Our lead candidate, FENM, is a novel and proprietary chemical entity (NCE) targeting specifically a subtype of NMDA receptor (involved in synaptic plasticity) in order to facilitate stress release and neuroprotection without triggering adverse side effects of current NMDA targeting drugs.
FENM will enter First-in-Human trials in June 2023 to initiate the clinical demonstration on PTSD.
Future Developments
ReST is also advancing new compounds to generate a robust library of candidates and generalize its NMDAr subtype modulation platform with the potential to treat other neurologic disorders.
With the EIC support, ReST will:
- Bring FENM to clinical Proof of Concept (PhIIb) by 2027.
- Secure a partnership with a pharma company.
- Develop new small molecules to expand its pipeline.
