Job Description
Chief Medical Officer
Protego Biopharma, Inc. is a privately held biotech focusing on the discovery and development of first- or best-in-class small-molecule therapeutics that aim to reprogram protein folding for the treatment of various systemic amyloid diseases, such as light chain (LC) amyloidosis.
Protego’s technology tackles the protein misfolding problem through modulation of the energetics of protein or protein complexes by binding to small molecules such as pharmacological chaperones and/or by modulation of the cellular folding, secretory, and stress pathways.
Protego’s approach builds on the proven pharmacological chaperones approach previously exemplified by tafamidis, discovered and developed by our cofounders Dr. Jeffery W. Kelly and Dr. Richard Labaudinière, for the treatment of transthyretin amyloidosis. The company also builds on the concept of correcting pathologic imbalances in protein homeostasis by specifically activating the unfolded protein response (UPR) with small molecules, to increase cellular folding capacity.
