Notes to Editors
About Diurnal
Diurnal is a clinical stage specialty pharmaceutical company targeting patient needs in chronic endocrine (hormonal) diseases which the Company believes are currently not satisfactorily met by existing treatments. It has identified a number of specialist endocrinology market opportunities in Europe and the US that are together estimated to be worth more than $11bn per annum.
On its admission to AIM in December 2015, the Company raised GBP30 million by way of a placing of new ordinary shares and a convertible loan. The new funds will accelerate the development of two leading product candidates which are in, or expected to commence shortly, Phase III clinical trials, targeting diseases of cortisol deficiency; Chronocort(R) , to be used for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia ("CAH") in adults, and Infacort(R) , to be used for Adrenal Insufficiency ("AI"), including CAH in children. The lead product candidate, Infacort(R) , is anticipated to receive its first regulatory approval in Europe towards the end of 2017.
