seglin™ technology platform

Summit’s Seglin™ (second generation leads from iminosugars) technology is using new chemistry to access biological drug targets that cannot be exploited by conventional drug discovery approaches.

Seglin Technology Platform

 

The Seglin platform has been extensively validated and a number of small molecule, orally bioavailable Seglin compounds have been identified across multiple therapy areas, including ones against previously intractable targets.

Summit’s internal research is currently focussed in the high-value therapy areas of Type II diabetes and infectious diseases and the Company will further exploit the technology’s wider potential through strategic alliances.

 

Seglin technology provides a unique opportunity to find a range of new medicines for different therapeutic areas from compounds of a defined chemical class.
