As its drug discovery strategy in neurology, Ono highlighted four priorities: (1) deeper

understanding of disease biology, (2) taking on the challenge of disease-modifying

therapies, (3) controlling glial cells in addition to neurons, and (4) improving human

and ion channel drug discovery. Looking ahead, Ono has confirmed progress in multiple CPS: Combined positive score

projects, including upcoming Phase 2 data readouts for ONO-1110 (endocannabinoid EP4: Prostagrandin E2 receptor4

modulator) and ONO-2020 (epigenetic modulator).
