CepTor Corporation

CepTor Corporation is a development-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development, and commercialization of proprietary, cell-targeted therapeutic products for the treatment of neuromuscular and neurodegenerative diseases with a focus on orphan diseases. The Company's mission is to increase the quality and quantity of life of people suffering with these diseases. An orphan disease is defined in the United States as a serious or life-threatening disease that affects less than 200,000 people and for which no definitive therapy currently exists. CepTor Corporation seeks to create an efficient orphan drug platform by taking advantage of the legislative, regulatory and commercial opportunities common to these rare diseases. CepTor's primary efforts are currently being focused on moving its lead product, MYODUR, into phase I/II clinical trials for Duchenne's muscular dystrophy. The Company's broad platform technology also includes the development of products for multiple sclerosis, retinal degeneration and epilepsy.
