  • People with Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) often endure frequent, serious bleeds in silence, normalizing what should never be considered normal. Even the most experienced physicians can be surprised by the full extent of these unpredictable, potentially catastrophic bleeds. This underscores a critical opportunity for the medical community to deepen its understanding of GT and its true impact. It’s time to re-educate healthcare providers and empower patients to share their experiences more openly, so the severity of the condition is fully recognized. Hemab is leading the way in making this change, but there is still much to be done. Together, we can reshape the future of care for those living with GT.

    People with rare blood disorders have been forced to normalize the abnormal. Many people with Glanzmann thrombasthenia don’t even tell their doctors when they’re bleeding, often enduring and waiting until it becomes life-threatening. Physicians are often shocked at the frequent, unpredictable, and potentially catastrophic bleeds reported by patients...even those currently involved with the Hemab clinical trial! I’ll give you an example. Last week, I spoke with a physician colleague out in Europe. He said, “Benny, I’m recruiting patients for the clinical trial right now. I have this one woman in mind, but she doesn’t really bleed much.” After contacting her, it turns out, she was bleeding 10x more than we thought - just in private. She only came to the hospital when she was about to bleed out and needed a transfusion. Regarding GT, it’s time to denormalize the abnormal. We need to re-educate the medical community, and we need to encourage patients to be more forthcoming about how their condition impacts their lives. Hemab Therapeutics (or HMB-001 trial) is helping to generate this understanding, but our work is never done. It’s on us to keep engaging with the patient community, keep publishing our natural history data, and keep expanding and improving the quality of that data for patients with GT.

  • Being a woman with Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) comes with frequent, complex, life-threatening, and life-changing moments. The Haemnet Glanzmann’s 360 study shines a powerful spotlight on their unique challenges, elevating voices that are too often unheard. To the courageous participants who shared their experiences—your stories are more than inspiring. They’re sparking awareness, challenging perceptions, and driving meaningful change for the entire bleeding disorders community. Let’s continue to amplify these voices and work toward a future where no one faces these challenges alone. Explore the insights and stories here: https://lnkd.in/enTAHjUq

  • For those living with von Willebrand disease (VWD), it’s time to end the stagnation in treatment innovation. Hemab’s first VWD clinical trial is underway. VELORA-Discover is an observational study in individuals with type 1 VWD. To learn more or enroll, contact clinicaltrials@hemab.com or visit https://lnkd.in/eN6tuMqp Our pioneering efforts mark a new era for patients who have been long awaiting effective solutions.

    We were born as an international company with our first two employees in Boston and Copenhagen. From there, we’ve intentionally grown the company to have multiple locations, including Switzerland, Germany, France, and the UK. This might explain one of our core values: Work Smart Despite working across the globe, we're still able to maintain cohesion and hand the baton across timezones to meet our deadlines and deliverables. We wake up in Copenhagen, pass the baton to our team in the UK, who then transfer it to our colleagues in the US. On intense days, though we may be a small company, we're actively working 14-16 hours – effectively getting 2 days of work done in 1. This capability is especially crucial in biotech, where the journey is often a rollercoaster. There are moments when we need to operate at peak capacity. That's when our ”work smart” philosophy truly shines.

  • We are energized by the progress ahead in 2025, and kicking off the year with some exciting updates to share.

  • Bleeding events don’t pause during holidays—sometimes, they steal them entirely. People living with Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) hide extraordinary burdens – quietly adapting, canceling trips, and enduring hospital stays. For many years, this went unrecognized until now. Thanks to the recent partnership with the Glanzmann's Research Foundation, Inc. and the CHES Foundation, Inc., we are able to have open dialogue about GT. Here are a few real-life examples we captured thanks to Sano Genetics: • A GI bleed turned a holiday trip into a week-long hospital stay • A sudden bleed in both ears while flying • Anemia canceled a long-awaited family vacation • A family unwrapped presents at the hospital If you’re living with GT, share your story to help create a future without these limitations: https://lnkd.in/eQ54tTVZ

  • As 2024 comes to a close, we reflect on a year of steady progress toward improving the lives of those living with rare bleeding disorders. This year has been about building stronger connections, deepening our understanding of the community’s needs, and advancing the research that will shape the future of care. We’ve been urgently working because there is not a minute to lose.   At Hemab, we are grateful for the patients, families, and healthcare professionals who are making our work possible. We are driven by the unwavering commitment shown by our collaborators and trial participants, who are making the development of HMB-001 and HMB-002 a reality. Looking ahead to 2025, we are driving forward with a clear purpose: advancing HMB-001 and HMB-002 in the clinic, evaluating their potential to make a meaningful difference for those living with rare bleeding disorders. As we explore new possibilities within our pipeline, our focus stays centered on advancing innovative solutions that meet critical unmet patient needs and drive transformative progress in care.

    At Hemab Therapeutics, we have a deeply experienced and curious team of drug hunters.   It’s an unusual yet remarkably creative research team. We have more than 100 years of accumulated experience in blood clotting medicine — in designing it, carrying it through in vivo testing, and taking it all the way to clinical trials and commercial roll out. We may not be the biggest research organization in this industry, but we've been involved with 60% of all approved drugs in this space. The extensive domain expertise we possess is unprecedented.

  • Imagine facing unexplained bruises that linger, bleeding that doesn’t stop after a minor cut, or periods so heavy they can end in the hospital. This is the reality of Von Willebrand Disease (VWD), a bleeding disorder that often hides in plain sight, leaving many undiagnosed for years. The journey to answers can feel like a maze, with confusing symptoms and missed diagnoses creating frustration and uncertainty. Even after diagnosis, the path forward isn’t always clear—gaps in care and awareness leave patients and families searching for guidance. Managing VWD means navigating these challenges with vigilance, education, and the support needed to reclaim a sense of control. At Hemab, we’re committed to helping those impacted by VWD regain control through our work on HMB-002, an investigational therapy designed to elevate endogenous von Willebrand factor levels. Our team is dedicated to advancing this research with our clinical trial VELORA-Discover, an observational study in individuals with Type 1 VWD.

    “Sorry we don’t have a treatment...call us when you are hospitalized.” This is what we used to tell individuals living with Glanzmann thrombasthenia, Von Willebrand disease, Factor VII deficiency, and many other overlooked and underserved bleeding disorders. Over 500,000 individuals face unmet needs, having experienced only limited innovation in treatment throughout their lives. Hemab is here to close the gap. We are going to build medicines for all of the overlooked rare bleeding disorders. The time is NOW to leapfrog treatment into the 21st century for those who have been neglected for decades. We’re currently building a pipeline of new therapies. We started this journey with HMB-001, our first investigational therapy, which is now in Phase 2 clinical trial for individuals with Glanzmann thrombasthenia.
