About Inhibikase
(www.inhibikase.com)
Inhibikase Therapeutics,
Inc. (Nasdaq: IKT) is a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company
developing therapeutics for Parkinson's disease and related
disorders. Inhibikase's multi-therapeutic pipeline focuses on
neurodegeneration and its lead program IkT-148009, an Abelson
Tyrosine Kinase (c-Abl) inhibitor, targets the treatment of
Parkinson's disease inside and outside the brain as well as other
diseases that arise from Ableson Tyrosine Kinases. Its
multi-therapeutic pipeline is pursuing Parkinson's-related
disorders of the brain and GI tract, orphan indications related to
Parkinson's disease such as Multiple System Atrophy, and drug
delivery technologies for kinase inhibitors such as IkT-001Pro, a
prodrug of the anticancer agent imatinib mesylate that the Company
believes will provide a better patient experience with fewer
on-dosing side-effects. The Company's RAMP™ medicinal chemistry
program has identified a number of follow-on compounds to
IkT-148009 to be potentially applied to other cognitive and motor
function diseases of the brain. Inhibikase is headquartered in
Atlanta, Georgia with offices in
Boston, Massachusetts.
