Solving Chronic Inflammation

Inhibiting the activity of the
NLRP3 inflammasome

We Target Chronic Inflammation

Recognizing the link between inflammation and numerous chronic diseases, Halia is pioneering targeting a specific inflammatory pathway, NLRP3, with an allosteric inhibitor to disrupt chronic inflammation. The goal of this method is to reduce inflammation and help reset this inflammatory pathway, potentially treating neurodegeneration and inflammatory diseases to improve quality of life and promote longevity.

Obesity

Almost half of US adults are obese or severely obese. Lack of physical activity, unhealthy eating behavior, and, in some cases, genetics contribute to obesity. Halia is developing investigational treatments to combat obesity.

Pain and Rheumatoid Arthritis

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune condition where the immune system—normally the body's defender against infection and disease—attacks its own tissues. This results in pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of joint function. Halia is developing an investigational treatment for both RA and post-surgical pain.

Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer’s disease involves parts of the brain that control memory, language, problem-solving, and other thinking abilities. It can seriously affect a person’s ability to carry out daily activities. Halia is developing a potentially relevant pathway and investigational treatment for Alzheimer’s.

Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive disorder that affects the nervous system and the parts of the body controlled by the nerves. Tremors, stiffness, or slowing of movement are typical symptoms. Halia is developing a potential brain-penetrant compound to treat the disease.

Cancer

Cancer occurs when normal cells become cancerous cells that multiply and spread. Cancer is the second most common cause of death in the U.S. However, fewer people die of cancer now than 20 years ago19. Halia is developing potential pathways to prevent the onset of cancer.

Live Better, Longer

We recognize that patients want to improve their health. Halia is dedicated to disrupting chronic inflammation to treat or prevent neurodegeneration and inflammatory diseases to improve quality of life and promote longevity.

NLRP3 Inflammasome:

Our drug targets to disrupt
chronic inflammation

Inflammation is an essential biological response of the human immune system that protects against disease. However, when dysregulated, inflammation can become a driver of disease by promoting a persistent, systemic immune response that fuels the development of many chronic diseases.1

One of the primary mechanisms mediating the persistent, systemic inflammatory response is activating a large protein complex called the NLRP3 inflammasome. The inflammasome activation produces pro-inflammatory signaling proteins, which contribute considerably to disease-causing inflammation.2
