& THERAPEUTICS

RESEARCH AT FAKNOSTICS LLC IS FOCUSED ON DEVELOPMENT OF BOTH DIAGNOSTICS AND THERAPEUTICS AROUND THE MAJOR CANCER PROTEIN FOCAL ADHESION KINASE (FAK)

FAKnostics LLC is a dynamic diagnostics and pharmaceutical company.

 

We are developing next generation drugs that inhibit tumor growth through targeting important protein-protein interactions on the FAK scaffold.

THERAPEUTICS

FAK is considered to be an especially promising cancer drug target for solid tumors.

We have developed an effective inhibitor that targets the kinase independent FAT domain of FAK with efficacy at nanomolar dosage.

FIBROSIS
THERAPEUTICS

FAK over-expression is associated with fibrosis induced by biochemical stress.

We are developing our proprietary FAK inhibitor to target liver fibrosis induced by NAFLD, alcoholism and infectious diseases.
