Therapeutic Area Focus
Chronic diseases are rapidly increasing worldwide, escalating the demand for life-changing medicines. These conditions represent 73% of all deaths worldwide and 60% of the global burden of disease. At Structure, we are determined to transform these devastating figures with innovative, small molecule medicines.
417 Million
suffer from Type 2 Diabetes
46% increase by 2045
90% of T2DM patients are overweight or obese
Obesity
NAFLD/NASH
150 Million
suffer from our cardiopulmonary disease areas of focus
>2x increase in incidence of pulmonary fibrosis over last 30 yrs
Mortality can occur within 3-5 yrs
