About Harmonic Pharma


Harmonic Pharma’s core business is based on the new paradigm of polypharmacology. This new paradigm consists in identifying the ensemble of biological targets linked to safe compounds in order to investigate their novel therapeutic applications. As an example, HPH112, developed in collaboration with the Institut Curie in Paris, is a promising drug candidate in combination with recent oncology treatments. In addition, the company offers its Pharmacological Rediscovery© platform to its partners/clients in health applications.
