Join us in redefining the future of nicotine dependence
We are a late-stage specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to tackling the global nicotine dependence epidemic by advancing cytisinicline.
In June 2025, we submitted a New Drug Application to the FDA for cytisinicline as a treatment of nicotine dependence for smoking cessation in adults, based on two successfully completed Phase 3 studies and its fully enrolled open-label safety study.
If approved, cytisinicline has the potential to become the first new FDA-approved treatment option in nearly 20 years.

Nicotine dependence is a serious medical issue that demands a medical solution
The harms associated with smoking are well established, increasing the risk of COPD, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and other serious conditions.
While over half attempt to quit smoking each year, fewer than 10% succeed.1 The toll is staggering – lost lives and over $300 billion in annual smoking-related healthcare costs.3
A more effective treatment is critical to addressing this widespread public health crisis.

demonstrated in clinical trials to provide favorable odds of quitting6,7
focused on precision targeting of nicotine receptors
In two recent trials, cytisinicline has been shown to effectively help even highly dependent smokers stop smoking.6,7 Cytisinicline binds to the same receptors as nicotine to reduce both withdrawal symptoms and satisfaction associated with smoking.8 And since it doesn’t bind as strongly to certain receptors, it is believed to have less potential to cause side effects — including nausea and vomiting.
