Executive Summary
The field of bone disease, particularly age-related bone diseases such as osteoarthritis and osteoporosis, is a large and growing one as the global population increases and ages. The available treatment options tend to target the alleviation of symptoms rather than modifying the disease process itself. In other words, there's a high unmet medical need to identify a novel class of drug that could slow down the progression or even reverse the process of bone and cartilage degeneration. Arcarios BV aims to meet this need by using its proprietary technology platforms to discover and develop innovative drugs that will restore cartilage and bone.
