Expert Statements

Miranda Toledano, Chief Executive Officer of Entera

“I am delighted to welcome Juan Camilo to Entera’s board. Juan Camilo is a distinguished clinical leader with a valuable track record in late-stage development and regulatory approvals. This, coupled with his particular focus on advancing treatments in women-centric conditions, resonates profoundly with our thesis for EB613 in late-stage development for osteoporosis and EB612 set to enter early clinical development in hypoparathyroidism. On behalf of the Board and our entire team, I would also like to extend my sincere gratitude to Haya Taitel for her commitment and contributions to Entera.”
