The need
Autoimmune disorders affect 1 in 10 Americans, making it the third most prevalent disease category after cancer and heart disease. With more than 80 autoimmune diseases identified, diagnosis can be difficult and treatments unavailable to ease symptoms. Women make up almost 80% of the people with chronic autoimmune conditions.
Mission
Yarrow was founded and incubated by the RTW team in New York and is rooted in the firm’s longstanding expertise and commitment to solving genetic diseases and developing best-in-class therapeutics for cardiovascular, eye, and auto-immune diseases.
Next milestone
By working closely with the Yarrow team, we strive to expand Yarrow’s internal R&D capabilities, by initiating drug discovery programs as well as in-licensing assets to further capitalize business and team expansion.
