Our Partners: Icagen, Inc.
Pfizer and Icagen, Inc. entered into a worldwide collaboration and licensing agreement for the discovery, development, and commercialization of compounds which modulate three specific sodium ion channels as potential new treatments for pain and related disorders. The companies will combine resources to identify compounds that target these ion channels in a global research and development collaboration.
We are enthusiastic about entering into this collaboration with Pfizer. By combining one of our multitarget ion channel pain programs with similar programs at Pfizer, we believe that together our scientific teams will be well positioned to capitalize upon this exciting therapeutic opportunity... It is a distinct privilege to join forces with Pfizer as we continue to advance our mission of discovering and developing novel medications that address areas of real medical need.![]()
