About PolyMedix, Inc.

PolyMedix is a publicly traded biotechnology company focused on the development of novel drugs and biomaterials for the treatment of serious acute cardiovascular disorders and infectious diseases. PolyMedix uses a rational drug design approach to create non-peptide small molecule drug candidates and polymers that mimic the activity of proteins. PMX-60056, PolyMedix’s lead heptagonist compound, is being developed to reverse the anticoagulant activity of both heparin and low molecular weight heparins. PolyMedix believes that PMX-60056 could potentially be a safer and easier to use anticoagulant reversing agent, with broader activity, than the currently approved therapy for reversing heparin. PMX-30063, PolyMedix’s lead antibiotic compound, is a small molecule that mimics human host-defense proteins and has a mechanism of action distinct from those of current antibiotic drugs, a mechanism which is intended to make bacterial resistance unlikely to develop. PolyMedix plans to develop this compound for serious systemic Staphylococcal infections, including MRSA. Both PMX-60056 heptagonist and PMX-30063 antibiotic are undergoing clinical testing. PolyMedix also plans to continue the development of its PolyCides™, polymeric formulations as antimicrobial biomaterials, which can be used as additives to paints, plastics, and textiles to create self-sterilizing products and surfaces.
