Development of Next-Generation Antifungal Drugs

Our company is focused on developing two major drug pipelines: a next-generation antifungal agent and a microbiome-based therapy for the treatment of Graves' disease. After securing seed funding, we are now seeking PreA investment to further our development efforts. The development of our next-generation antifungal agent has shown promising results at the laboratory level, with positive findings from activity tests, animal toxicity studies, and efficacy evaluations. We are now preparing to initiate non-clinical trials through a CRO. Upon completion of the non-clinical phase, we aim to enter preclinical studies in 2025. Simultaneously, we are advancing the development of our microbiome-based therapy using the NES-428 strain to treat Graves' disease. This strain has demonstrated effective results in animal studies, and we are currently investigating the mode of action of its therapeutic action.

Photodynamic-Immuno Convergent Anticancer Therapy Using Immune Cell Differentiation Induction Technology

Cancer treatment has evolved through the development of first-generation cytotoxic chemotherapies, second-generation targeted therapies, and third-generation immunotherapies. Despite these advancements, cancer remains the leading cause of death worldwide due to intractable cancers. There is also a continual demand for technologies to prevent metastatic and recurrent cancers. MediArk has developed a photodynamic-immuno convergent anticancer therapy based on Metal-Organic Frameworks that applies localized photodynamic treatment and immune cell differentiation promotion techniques. This therapy has demonstrated excellent anticancer efficacy in both in vitro and in vivo evaluations. Notably, it has been shown to prevent 100% of cancer recurrences in recurrence trials. MediArk aims to commercialize this technology to ultimately treat intractable cancers that have not been previously conquered.

Development of a hybrid nanocoated stent for the lower extremity for the treatment of small diameter atherosclerotic lesions

When arteriosclerosis reduces blood flow to the lower limbs, it can cause pain, difficulty walking, and even tissue necrosis, potentially leading to leg amputation. Current stents only address the thigh area, with issues arising in smaller vessels below the knee due to foreign body reactions. Our company has developed a hybrid nanocoating stent to treat these unaddressed areas.
