Developing novel medicines to make

a profound impact
on mental health care

Addressing major unmet needs in mental health, with pharmacology rooted in emerging and clinically validated biology

Syremis Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel medicines to make a profound impact on the treatment of mental health. The company’s neuropsychiatric pipeline is rooted in emerging and clinically validated mechanisms, including muscarinic M1/M4 agonism and next-generation NMDA antagonism.

Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders remain among the most debilitating and underserved conditions worldwide, with more than 20 million people affected and facing considerable disability, elevated relapse rates, and reduced life expectancy. Despite decades of need, current treatments often fall short in both efficacy and tolerability. Syremis is committed to developing novel and better treatments for these conditions. The lead program, ST-905, is a dual M1/M4 agonist in Phase 1 development for schizophrenia and other psychiatric conditions.

The company is also advancing ST-901, a novel NMDA antagonist currently in IND-enabling studies. ST-901 will be developed for major depressive disorder and bipolar depression, two conditions with significant unmet need and high societal impact.
