🔎 Fund Overview

Hepion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. The Company is focused on artificial intelligence (AI)-driven therapeutic drug development for the treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrotic diseases, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and other chronic diseases. Its primary asset, Rencofilstat, is a potent inhibitor of cyclophilins, which are involved in many disease processes. Rencofilstat reduces liver fibrosis and hepatocellular carcinoma tumor burden in experimental disease models. Its drug candidate is intended to target multiple molecular pathways across the full spectrum of liver disease progression, from the triggering events that initiate disease to the pathological events that directly impair liver function and integrity. Its AI-POWR platform provides integrative, multi-variate, systems-biology bioinformatic and big-data analysis of proprietary pre-clinical and clinical data with publicly available multi-omic databases.
