  • J2H-1702, a selective 11β-HSD1 enzyme inhibitor, is an orally administered small molecule drug candidate that has demonstrated significant improvement in both hepatic steatosis and liver fibrosis, as well as improvement in liver function and dyslipidemia, in various animal models of MASH.
  • Phase 1 clinical trials have demonstrated a favorable safety and pharmacokinetic profile, and Phase 2 clinical trials are underway for the treatment of patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) beginning in 2022

  • J2H-1801 is a hybrid new drug candidate that overcomes the limitations of the current MS treatment Tecfidera (Biogen, USA) by significantly reducing the side effects (GI issues, flushing) while maintaining equivalent efficacy.
  • Orally administered J2H-1802 is metabolized to monomethyl fumarate (MMF), an active metabolite of Tecfidera, and is specifically designed to mitigate the side effects while eliminating non-hazardous components from the body.

  • J2H-2002 is a targeted protein degradation (TPD) drug candidate for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) targeting mutant epidermal growth factor (EGFR).
  • J2H-2002 is a next-generation oral NSCLC drug candidate effective for treating patients who developed resistance to previous treatment methods, and it simultaneously reduces the risk of developing further drug resistance.
