Islet Sciences is a clinical stage biotechnology company engaged in the research, development, and commercialization of new medicines and technologies for the treatment and diagnosis of metabolic disease and related indications where there is significant measurable unmet medical need. The rising incidence of obesity is associated with many obesity-related health complications, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease/steatohepatitis (NAFLD/NASH). This constellation is also recognized as the metabolic syndrome and is characterized by underlying insulin resistance. These various diseases have interrelated risk factors and markers, such that often treatment of one disease may allow new therapies and opportunities for treatment in one of these related indications. Our focused effort to develop new therapies and related diagnostics for metabolic related diseases establishes us as a recognized leader in a large and growing market.
