About Us

Changing Best Practices for Life-threatening Disease

Acasti is a late-stage biopharma company with drug candidates addressing rare and orphan diseases.

Our clinical assets have been awarded Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA, which provides seven years of marketing exclusivity post-launch in the United States. We have additional intellectual property protection with over 40 granted and pending patents.

GTX-104

Our lead drug candidate, GTX-104, is a novel injectable formulation of nimodipine for the treatment of a rare disease, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). This formulation offers several potential advantages over oral administration of nimodipine that is the current Standard of Care (SoC).

We believe GTX-104 may represent a significant improvement in the treatment and management of aSAH patients.
