Okklo’s therapeutic cyclodextrin technology platform
Okklo Life Sciences has experience in developing custom made cyclodextrins for therapeutic applications.
By means of chemical modification, CDs can be designed in such a way that they:
- Scavenge and thereby reverse the action of specific drugs
- Specifically scavenge and detoxify harmful metabolites that accumulate in certain disease states
- Have improved pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties such as the ability to enter specific cellular compartments or organs like the brain.
- Exert unique pharmacological actions
Custom design of cyclodextrins
With our expertise and in silico modeling capabilities, we can design and create cyclodextrins that can trap, inactivate and detoxify a wide variety of drugs or harmful biological metabolites.
Cyclodextrin library screening
Okklo Life Sciences has a unique library of proprietary cyclodextins that can be used in biochemical and/or cellular assays for screening purposes.
