axcella has pioneered a new therapeutic class – defined amino acid compositions (daacs™). our daac therapeutics leverage the essential signaling function of amino acids to restore health across a network of dysregulated pathways, and provide safer solutions for patients with complex disease. with our axcellerator™ platform, we are transforming traditional drug discovery and development by generating patient data in less than a year from indication selection. this platform has delivered a rich pipeline including clinical programs in liver, metabolic, cns and orphan diseases.
