Commitment to Discovery
Glycadia is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of kidney, eye, cardiovascular and related diseases that result from diabetes.
Focus and Market
The current approach to forestalling diabetic complications concentrates on improving blood glucose levels and decreasing HbA1c. Despite “optimal” management with insulin and/or oral hypoglycemic agents and the advent of new anti-diabetic therapies; more than 70% of patients remain out of glycemic control.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Glycadia’s experienced R&D team is bringing new scientific discoveries to clinical trials of innovative products for complications of diabetes, including nephropathy, retinopathy and cardiovascular disease.
Meeting a National Health Crisis
With a market exceeding 100 million individuals in the United States alone, Glycadia is out to challenge the epidemic, with results. There are no drugs currently available that directly target diabetes-specific abnormalities underlying the microvascular and macrovascular complications of this disease. Glycadia addresses this massive, yet underserved, critical human healthcare need.

Clinical Trials
Glycadia has completed Phase Ia and Phase Ib/IIa clinical trials with its lead compound, GLY-230, and is preparing for additional Phase II trials of GLY-230 in patients with diabetes at risk for diabetic nephropathy.
Alzheimers Disease
Recent experimental work indicates that Glycadia’s compound in clinical development for vascular complications of diabetes may have efficacy in Alzheimer’s disease.
