CohBar, Inc. (“CohBar” or the “Company”) is an innovative biotechnology company and a leader in the research and development of mitochondria based therapeutics (MBTs), an emerging class of drugs with the potential to treat a wide range of diseases associated with aging and metabolic dysfunction, including obesity, fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), cancer, atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.
The Company’s primary activities include research and development of its MBT pipeline, securing intellectual property protection, managing collaborations with contract research organizations (“CROs”) and academic institutions, expanding its scientific leadership and raising capital. To date, the Company has not generated any revenues from operations and does not expect to generate any revenues in the near future and has funded its business with the proceeds of an initial public offering (“IPO”), private placements of equity and debt securities and the exercise of outstanding warrants. |
