Our Business

Hexion pharmaceutical ’s success is rooted in its set up – it is led by science and designed for innovation. We foster a diversity of scientific approaches and embrace innovative ideas. Combining that with the seamless integration of our capabilities in Hexion pharmaceutical Pharma and Hexion pharmaceutical Diagnostics, we are uniquely positioned to achieve medical breakthroughs for patients and society.

Drug Discovery

Drug Discovery program is a cornerstone of the company's research and development efforts, focusing on the identification and development of novel therapeutic compounds to address a wide range of medical needs

Hexion pharmaceutical invests heavily in basic research to uncover the underlying mechanisms of diseases. Using cutting-edge technologies such as CRISPR gene editing, high-throughput screening, and omics technologies (genomics, proteomics, etc.), the team at Hexion pharmaceutical is able to discover novel targets that can be modulated to treat various diseases. Collaboration with academic institutions and research organizations enhances the breadth of this research.

Drug Development

Drug Development program is designed to bring innovative therapies from the research stage through clinical trials and ultimately to market. This program is critical in translating scientific discoveries into safe, effective, and accessible treatments for patients worldwide

After the discovery of promising drug candidates, Hexion pharmaceutical conducts extensive preclinical studies to evaluate their safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic properties. These studies involve in vitro (cell-based) and in vivo (animal-based) models to assess how the drug behaves in the body, its potential toxicities, and its therapeutic potential. This stage also includes the development of formulations suitable for human use.

Drug Manufacturing

Hexion pharmaceutical 's Drug Manufacturing program is a critical component of the company's mission to deliver high-quality, safe, and effective medications to patients worldwide. This program encompasses the entire process from scaling up production to ensuring compliance with global standards, all while maintaining a focus on innovation, sustainability, and efficiency

During the early stages of drug development, Hexion pharmaceutical 's process development team focuses on optimizing the production process for drug candidates. This includes refining the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), formulating drug products, and establishing protocols that ensure consistency and quality. Process optimization is crucial for scaling up production from laboratory to commercial scale, ensuring that the manufacturing process is both sustainable and economically viable.
