Uncovered
Orphazyme A/S is uncovered by Eyestock quantitative analysis.
Orphazyme A/S is a biopharmaceutical company, which engages in the development of treatment for patients living with life-threatening and debilitating rare diseases. The company develops new therapies for the treatment of a family of genetic disorders. The firm's main focus is on preclinical development of medicines for the treatment of lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs), a group of approximately 50 genetic disorders that result from deficiencies of lysosomal enzymes or other lysosomal components, and protein aggregation diseases. The Company’s candidate, arimoclomol, stimulates the production of the cells’ protein rescue system, the heat shock proteins, which helps the misfolded proteins to either get back to their functional shape or, if this cannot be achieved, remove them from the cells by means of the cells’ recycling system, the lysosomes, so they no longer form toxic aggregates. The firm collaborates with academic institutions in Europe and the United States.
