Artelo Biosciences, Inc.

Artelo Biosciences, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. The Company is focused on the development of therapeutics that target lipid-signaling pathways, including the endocannabinoid system (ECS), a family of receptors and neurotransmitters that form a biochemical communication network throughout the body. It is developing a dual cannabinoid (CB) agonist that targets both the CB1 and CB2 receptors. This synthetic small molecule program is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) designated ART27.13. ART27.13 is a potential treatment for anorexia associated with cancer. Its second program ART26.12, is a small molecule lead product candidate from its platform of inhibitors of fatty acid binding proteins, notably Fatty Acid Binding Protein 5 (FABP5), which is undergoing pre-clinical research as a potential cancer therapeutic, for pain and inflammation, and in anxiety-related disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder.
