Every year, more than 70,000 people with sickle cell disease are admitted to hospitals. Rivipansel

(GMI-1070) is currently being studied as a potential treatment for vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC), the primary trigger for hospitalizations related to sickle cell disease.

At GlycoMimetics, we actively conduct promising research

and seek to establish unique collaborations in our pursuit of new treatments for people with serious diseases.

Patients with blood cancers have an urgent need for new medical treatment options. We recently began a clinical study of
GMI-1271.
