"It is a common opinion among physicians, that chronic pain is too complex of a phenomenon and is therefore almost impossible to solve. But we believe we can do that, and this is because science backs us up."
20 to 30% of the entire world's population suffers some levels of chronic pain.
Pannex Therapeutics is a pioneer biopharmaceutical company totally focused on the development of a novel therapeutic class of Pannexin 1 channel (Panx1) blockers. Pannex is developing a platform of small molecules that blocks this exciting new pharmacological target, Panx1 channels.
