Corporate Profile

Inimex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is focused on the development and commercialization of Innate Defense Regulators (IDRs), novel first in class drugs that selectively modulate the body's innate defenses without causing inflammation.

IDR products have major market potential for  infectious disease, side effects of cancer therapies, and inflammatory disease.  These products will significantly reduce morbidity and mortality in the rapidly growing population of "at-risk" immune suppressed and elderly patients.  IDR products will also benefit healthcare payors by reducing costs associated with hospitalization.
