Competitive Landscape
In ophthalmology, Dompé's cenegermin is first-in-class for NK, but faces general competition in dry eye and inflammation. In neurology, it would be a pioneer if successful in cerebral palsy. Its Exscalate platform competes with numerous well-funded AI-drug discovery firms (e.g., Recursion, Exscientia) and internal big pharma efforts.
