About Cytos Biotechnology Ltd
Cytos is a public biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of
targeted immuno-therapies. The Company's lead product candidate CYT003 is a
first-in-class immune modulator in Phase 2 clinical development as a
potential new treatment for allergic asthma.
CYT003 acts via a novel, allergen-independent mechanism of action to
selectively suppress the body's immune response to allergens, a predominant
risk factor for asthma. In a successfully completed Phase 2a study, CYT003
was shown to maintain asthma control and lung function in patients with
persistent allergic asthma, even as standard inhaled corticosteroid
treatment was withdrawn. CYT003 has been shown to be safe in over 450
patients to date.
Cytos was founded in 1995 as a spinoff from the Swiss Federal Institute of
Technology (ETH) in Zurich. It is located in Schlieren (Zurich),
Switzerland. The Company is listed according to the Main Standard on the
SIX Swiss Exchange Ltd under the symbol CYTN.
