Argenica Therapeutics Limited

Argenica Therapeutics Limited (ASX:AGN) is developing novel neuroprotective therapeutics to reduce brain damage after stroke and other devastating brain injuries. There is currently a large unmet need for a safe, early intervention therapeutic that provides protection to brain cells immediately following a stroke, until the underlying cause of stroke can be diagnosed and alleviated. 

It is our mission to provide a solution for this unmet need. Our aim is for ARG-007 to be administered by first responders in the field to provide neuroprotective treatment prior to a patient’s arrival at the hospital which will result in improved patient outcomes.
