SierraNeuro is a startup biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of small molecule therapeutic products for medically refractory patients with CNS disease. Many highly effective oral medicines are toxic to the body (and not to the brain) and in addition patients are often unable to consistently take oral medications. Sierra has addressed these problems by reformulating highly effective oral medications for placement into an implantable pump, for administration into the fluid around the brain, to treat CNS diseases including Epilepsy, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety Disorders and Major Depression. Implantable pumps for use in the nervous system are well established in the medical community, in terms of safety and experience.
