It seeks to monetize CDX-101, the Company's pre-clinical pharmaceutical candidate for cardiovascular inflammation and dyslipidemia, and CDX-301, the Company's pre-clinical pharmaceutical candidate for macular degeneration.

Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring molecule with safe anti-inflammatory activity that supports cardiovascular health, metabolic health, liver health, joint health, and longevity. It intends to develop zeaxanthin pharmaceutical candidate, CDX-301, for macular degeneration. Zeaxanthin accumulates in the human eye through uptake by a retinal receptor, providing protection against blue light, oxidative damage, and related inflammation that occurs in macular degeneration.
