Privately-held Spanish drugmaker Esteve has announced the RIBOPAIN project, which aims to identify new therapeutic solutions for pain and to develop more effective drugs in collaboration with the Neuropharmacology Group-Neurophar at Pompeu Fabra University (UPF).
The aim of RIBOPAIN is the identification and preclinical validation of drug targets with innovative mechanisms of action for the treatment of neuropathic pain. Beyond the traditional approach to the search for therapeutic targets involved in modulating nerve transmission, the researchers are focusing their search on specific cell populations. To do so, they will employ a highly novel genetic approach in rodent models.
