Their innovative 2-site binding mechanism has the potential to deliver best-in-class HDAC6-targeting therapeutics and tackles major limitations of first generation HDAC inhibitors, such as weak binding, poor selectivity, suboptimal pharmacokinetics, and off-target toxicities. HDAX closed an oversubscribed >$5M CAD seed financing round in Q4 2024 to nominate a development candidate and advance its pipeline programs.
