Therapeutical areas

The group's traditional research fields in the gastrointestinal/digestive area and in the osteo-articular area have been extended, through extensive activity, to include the fields of hormone replacement therapy/women's health/gynaecology and, more recently, the cardiovascular, respiratory tract and Central nervous system areas.

Rottapharm has other arrangements in progress for the development of nine new chemical entities projects deriving from its own internal discovery.
These projects involve compounds direct to rheumatic, gastroenterological, respiratory and CNS disorders.
Arrangements include development through Rottapharm's own internal capabilities for most of the compounds and co-development with industrial partners for some of them.
