Protego Bio is a clinical-stage biotech developing first-in-class small molecule pharmacological chaperones for AL amyloidosis and other protein misfolding diseases.
Protein misfolding diseases, from cardiomyopathy to AL amyloidosis, represent serious conditions with critical unmet medical needs.
Protego develops first-in-class small molecule pharmacological chaperones designed to restore protein function.
Its drug discovery integrates protein sciences, advanced computation, and medicinal chemistry, and it builds on the prior breakthrough success of tafamidis, discovered by its cofounders.
Founded by Dr. Jeffery Kelly and Dr. Richard Labaudinière, scientists tied to the development of tafamidis, a blockbuster Pfizer amyloidosis drug; the San Diego company raised a $130M Series B.
