About Satellos Bioscience Inc.
Satellos is a clinical-stage drug development company dedicated
to developing life-improving medicines to treat degenerative muscle
diseases. Satellos has invented SAT-3247 as a first-of-its-kind,
orally administered small molecule drug designed to restore
skeletal muscle regeneration initially in Duchenne muscular
dystrophy (DMD). Satellos has generated a significant body of
preclinical evidence in DMD to support that correcting muscle stem
cell polarity with SAT-3247 has the potential to restore skeletal
muscle regeneration to repair and strengthen muscle that has been
damaged. The Company’s lead drug candidate SAT-3247 is currently in
clinical development as a potential disease-modifying treatment
DMD. Additionally, Satellos is leveraging its breakthrough research
in muscle stem cell polarity and proprietary discovery platform
MyoReGenX™, to identify degenerative muscle diseases where deficits
in muscle regeneration occur that are amenable to therapeutic
intervention for future clinical development. For more information,
