Drug development can take 8-15 years with costs ranging from US$0.3 to US$0.8 billion. The global pharmaceutical industry is under intense pressure to increase the number of drugs they bring to market and shorten the drug discovery process. PhenoCure’s technology areas are precisely focused in enabling the pharmaceutical industry to specifically realize these 2 critical goals.

PhenoCure has been established to commercially exploit almost 30 years of pioneering medical research that has resulted in the company holding a unique market position in 2 key areas:

1. Functional Therapeutics - PFR*
Proprietary drug discovery technology. Can be applied to find potential cures for diseases such as most Cancers, Alzheimer's, CJD and Huntington's. PFR drugs are a superior and effective alternative to gene therapy.

2. Functional Proteins - Foldases and associated technologies*
Rapid and consistent expression of functionally active proteins - a critical and usually time consuming and inconsistent step in the drug discovery process.
