Our Focus
Our Osteoarthritis Treatment Technology
Our development-technology is designed to alleviate inammation and pain in Osteoarthritis, in addition to providing essential chondroprotective drugs to mitigate further joint-degeneration.
Osteoarthritis aects over 650 million around the world and is the most common form of arthritis. It is often described as the 'wear and tear' of joints resulting from the gradual loss of cartilage. Aside from worsening pain, Osteoarthritis can lead to complete disability and currently no cure exists.
Anti-inflammatory and chondroprotective therapeutics for Osteoarthritis
Target: AMPK
Anti-Inflammatories
Our novel approach of targeting AMPK to induce a localised anti-inammatory response is a key function of our technology. Aside from triggering an anti-inammatory response, our technology also encourages cell cleaning, energy control, weight loss with evidence of life-longevity.
Chondrocytes are the only cells found in healthy cartilage. These cells produce and maintain the cartilage matrix. In Osteoarthritis, the cartilage breaks down, causing pain, swelling and problems moving the joints. Our developed therapeutics are designed to combat this process.
Re-purposing already-approved components within a novel formulation boasts a therapeutic with known toxicities, handling and anticipated shorter-development times. At AMPK Pharmaceuticals, we have identified a formulation of endogenous (naturally occurring) components for potentially treatment for OA.
