About

ANA Therapeutics was a Silicon Valley-based clinical-stage biotechnology startup founded in 2020 to develop ANA-001, a proprietary oral capsule formulation of niclosamide as a safe, widely accessible antiviral treatment for COVID-19. The company partnered with Quotient Sciences to manufacture the drug candidate and received FDA clearance to proceed to human clinical trials, making it one of the first COVID-19 treatment companies to enter Phase II/III trials with a niclosamide-based therapy. Backed by SOSV and a $5M seed round in August 2020, the company was acquired by NeuroBo Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: NRBO) in January 2021 for late-stage oral antiviral development. The neurobopharma.com domain now operates as MetaVia, NeuroBo's rebranded entity focused on cardiometabolic diseases.
