About Coyote Pharmaceuticals:
Coyote Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is an emerging biopharmaceutical company focused on treating neurodegenerative diseases through the modulation of protein folding and transport vital to maintaining cellular homeostasis. The company’s lead drug candidate, CNS-102, is being developed initially to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The orally bioavailable small molecule therapeutic is designed to activate gene expression of a family of proteins known as heat shock proteins involved in regulating the folding and transport of other proteins.
