The company is headquartered in Miami Beach, Florida and currently employs 5 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2021-08-13. The firm is advancing a pipeline of three therapeutic product candidates, with a focus on its lead product candidate, PAS-004, a macrocyclic mitogen-activated protein kinase, or MEK inhibitor. PAS-004 is a small molecule allosteric inhibitor of MEK 1 and 2 (MEK 1/2) for potential use in the treatment of a range of RASopathies, including neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and a number of oncology indications, among others. Its remaining two programs, PAS-001 and PAS-003, are in the earlier stages of development and are based on novel targets for the treatment of CNS disorders that it believes address limitations in the treatment paradigm of the indications it plans to address, which are amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) for its PAS-003 program, and schizophrenia for its PAS-001 program.
