Jyong Biotech's Plant‑Based Pipeline Targets Huge Markets But Risks Remain

  • Jyong Biotech develops botanical drugs for urinary disorders. Their lead asset is clearly MCS‑2, which is currently restarting Phase 3 trials after a previous FDA setback. Their pipeline targets large unmet BPH, prostate cancer prevention, and IC markets. However, their botanical approach could be a potential “first‑in‑class” as a safer alternative. MENS recent IPO raised roughly $20 million and gave them a healthy cash runway. Though note that additional trials could accelerate cash burn.
