Alkahest, a subsidiary of Grifols, is developing therapies derived from blood to treat neurological diseases, with an emphasis on age-related cognitive decline -- key medical challenges of our generation. The company’s breakthrough research has demonstrated that factors in blood plasma of young mice are able to reverse brain deficits in normal aging and Alzheimer’s disease models in mice. Clinical studies are being conducted in patients with different types of dementia and other neurodegenerative diseases. Alkahest is based in San Carlos, Calif., while Grifols, a global healthcare company, is headquartered in Barcelona, Spain.
At Life Biosciences, we are on a mission to reverse age-related diseases. Our platform, termed epigenetic restoration, has been shown to rejuvenate cells in preclinical models with profound therapeutic effect. It has the potential to rejuvenate cells and restore function in many age-related diseases. We are the sole company with intellectual property covering the therapeutic use of our epigenetic restoration technology. We are also the only company to have received FDA approval to advance this technology into human clinical studies. While our initial clinical trial is for optic neuropathies, our science has the potential to bring tremendous benefit to patients suffering from multiple age-related diseases.
