About Curaxis
Curaxis is an emerging specialty pharmaceutical company with a hormone drug
product candidate for the treatment of Alzheimer–s disease and multiple
cancers. Curaxis– therapeutic platform is based on the hypothesis that many
diseases of aging may be caused by age-related changes in the function of the
hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis. The HPG axis is a hormonal endocrine
feedback loop that controls development, reproduction and aging in animals.
This drug development platform is built on the premise that hormones associated
with this feedback loop are beneficial early in life, when they promote growth
and development, but are harmful later in life when the mechanism for feedback
is compromised, thereby leading to disease processes, including pathologies
associated with Alzheimer–s disease and various cancers.
