Antibe Therapeutics develops safer medications for chronic pain and inflammation. Today, physicians and consumers rely principally on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), a $12 billion category of medications that includes brands like Advil, Aleve, Motrin, Celebrex, Voltaren and Aspirin. While effective, NSAIDs can cause gastrointestinal damage and bleeding. To address this serious medical need, Antibe has patented a technology for linking NSAID molecules to hydrogen sulfide molecules. More than a decade of academic and applied research has demonstrated that hydrogen sulfide, when appropriately delivered, can protect the gastrointestinal tract and enhance the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of today’s NSAIDs. Beginning with its IPO in mid-2013, Antibe has raised more than $10 million and initiated human clinical trials of its first drug, aimed at mild to moderate pain.
