Momenta Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biotechnology company specializing in the sequencing and engineering of complex sugars for the development of improved versions of existing drugs, the development of novel drugs and the discovery of new biological processes. Momenta's advanced product candidate, M-Enoxaparin, is designed to be a technology-enabled generic version of Lovenox, a low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) used to prevent and treat deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and acute coronary syndromes (ACS). It has formed a collaboration with Sandoz to jointly develop, manufacture and commercialize M-Enoxaparin. In addition, it intends to develop a technology-enabled generic version of Fragmin, another LMWH. Momenta's drug discovery program, which is focused initially in oncology, is designed to leverage its understanding of sugar biology to develop sugar-based drugs and identify specific biological processes and pathways that can be targeted with small-molecule or antibody drugs.
