Phyteau is developing an innovative, new class of therapeutics for diabetes, obesity, related conditions like NAFLD, NASH and prediabetes, and weight-loss. Unlike many drugs in the market today, our therapeutics are completely safe, and free of adverse side-effects.

Phyteau’s new incretin-based approach activates the body’s natural metabolic system
by triggering specialized enteroendocrine cells in the lining of the intestines to release
therapeutic levels of key hormones, including GLP-1, PYY and CCK. These boosted hormones:

1) signal insulin release,
2) reduce blood sugar levels and peaks, and HbA1c,
3) reduce appetite, food intake and weight, increase satiety,
4) slows gastric emptying and intestinal motility,
5) improve metabolism and fat thermogenesis,
6) reduce liver fat and fibrosis,
7) protect against many age-related functional declines and conditions, and
8) provide restorative and protective benefits to the cardiovascular and nervous systems and major organs

The result is safe and affordable first-line treatments that provide a powerful tool for blood sugar control, weight-loss and improving metabolism. Our technology, developed at Caltech, UCLA and Cedars Sinai Medical Center, has 3 patents awarded, 5 more pending, with more planned.

Phyteau’s deep technology platform and portfolio of agents allows us to address growing unmet global needs in a variety of markets. We have 3 pharmaceutical products in development as well as breakthrough medical and functional food products and other consumer health & nutrition products.
