Their mission is to improve the comfort, quality of life, and dignity of patients experiencing treatment-related gastrointestinal distress, particularly overactive bowel symptoms such as chronic diarrhea, urgency, and incontinence. Napo Pharmaceuticals is currently focused on their Phase 3 pivotal OnTarget trial of Mytesi crofelemer, a preventative treatment for chemotherapy-induced overactive bowel, with comprehensive results expected in Q1 2024. They also support investigator-initiated studies exploring the potential of crofelemer for rare disease indications like short bowel syndrome and microvillus inclusion disease.
