The Augustine Therapeutics pipeline is based on a novel generation of small molecule inhibitors of HDAC6, a validated molecular target with strong biological rationale for neuromuscular and neurodegenerative disorders, and high therapeutic potential in other cardiometabolic, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
The first peripherally-restricted, selective HDAC6i for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), currently in a Phase 1 clinical study.
2nd Gen peripherally-restricted HDAC6i for cardiometabolic diseases, currently inadvanced lead optimization.
A brain-penetrant HDAC6i for neurodegenerative diseases like ALS, currently in lead optimization.
