About Hofseth BioCare ASA:
HBC is a Norwegian consumer and pet health ingredient supplier and an incubator
for new drug leads. Research is ongoing to identify the individual elements
within its ingredients that modulate inflammation and the immune response with
pre-clinical studies in multiple clinics and university research labs in several
countries. Lead clinical and pre-clinical candidates are focused on developing
an oral pharmaceutical lead program to treat inflammatory disease driven by
eosinophils. Preclinical trial work with the oil is ongoing to ameliorate lung
inflammation in eosinophilic asthma and COPD (“smokers lung”) as well as
clinical work in COVID. Other leads are focused on the protection of the Gastro-
Intestinal (GI) system against inflammation (including ulcerative colitis and
the orphan condition necrotising enterocolitis) and using peptide fractions of
salmon protein hydrolysate (SPH also known as ‘ProGo’) as a Medical Food to help
treat age-related Sarcopenia, and as a treatment for Iron Deficiency Anemia.
The company is founded on the core values of sustainability, optimal utilization
of natural resources and full traceability. Through an innovative hydrolysis
technology, HBC can preserve the quality of lipids, proteins and calcium from
fresh salmon off-cuts.
