Sr. Director, Commercial Operations
Company Overview
Zevra Therapeutics is a rare disease company combining science, data, and patient needs to create transformational therapies for diseases with limited or no treatment options. Our mission is to bring life-changing therapeutics to people living with rare diseases. With unique, data-driven development and commercialization strategies, the Company is overcoming complex drug development challenges to make new therapies available to the rare disease community.
This is a transformational time for Zevra with significant near-term catalysts to increase stakeholder value as we move into the full commercialization of our product for certain Urea Cycle Disorders (UCDs) and later, Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (NPC), if approved. We’re excited about our synergistic pipeline for the complementary commercialization of our products. Zevra also currently has two novel therapies in mid- and late-stage clinical development for additional rare diseases with a data readout expected in 2024 for Idiopathic Hypersomnia (IH). Zevra is forming the right mix of talent, relevant experience and product opportunities to realize our vision of helping patients with rare diseases.
Too often, patients in the rare disease space are overlooked while patients with more common diseases are provided a broader array of treatment options and hope. While other pharmaceutical companies are focused on the common “horses” in healthcare, Zevra is developing cures for the rare “zebras” of biomedical need. We involve key thought leaders, physicians, patients, care partners and advocacy groups in all of our clinical and regulatory development strategies.
We have a strong company culture and are committed to creating and maintaining an environment that values the individual, fosters creativity, and promotes success. The Company is growing and is fueled by the talent and expertise of our employees and driven by the commitment to treating patients with significant unmet medical needs.
