Improving the quality of life for people suffering from food allergies
Moonlight Therapeutics is focused on developing safe, effective, and patient-friendly treatments for people suffering from food allergies.
APPROACH
-
Our approach to treating food allergies is to develop a targeted therapy that reduces the potential for a severe anaphylactic reaction from accidental exposure.
-
We believe by targeting the delivery of the drug to the immune cells in the skin we can offer a meaningful treatment while minimizing the risk of side effects.
-
We target the drug to the skin’s immune cells using Moonlight’s proprietary platform: TASIS. This involves application of a small, minimally invasive dermal stamp that uses microneedles. The stamp is removed within a few minutes and the administration is complete.
-
Our first treatment is for peanut allergy.
