Current Roundtable members
We’re delighted to be working with these Roundtable members this year – ranging from small pre-market companies to major global corporations. They bring energy and expertise to our network, and they share our passion for improving patients’ lives. We are grateful for their support.
Cereno Scientific is a pioneering biotech, developing innovative treatments for rare and common cardiovascular disease. Cereno’s lead drug candidate, CS1, is a HDAC inhibitor with epigenetic effects. A Phase II study, performed in collaboration with Abbott, is evaluating CS1’s safety, tolerability, and efficacy in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Two initiatives performed during the ongoing Phase II study have shown positive findings suggesting potential clinical benefit of CS1. Since January 2024, the FDA´s Expanded Access Program enables patients with PAH to gain access to CS1 where no comparable alternative therapy options are available.
Cereno’s portfolio also comprises CS014, an HDAC inhibitor with epigenetic effects, being developed for thrombosis prevention, Phase I planned in Q2 2024, and CS585 a novel IP receptor agonist in preclinical development.
Cereno is a proud member of the PVRI Roundtable enabling us to collaborate to drive innovation of new treatments.
