Description:

Jade Therapeutics develops ophthalmic sustained-release drug delivery platforms. The company focuses on the development of locally administered, sustained-release therapeutics that improve corneal healing following damage from disease or injury and improve visual function and quality of life. Its product delivers recombinant human growth hormone, a well-characterized biologic, that has healing properties via the activation and recruitment of key cells involved in the tissue-building process.
