@SamCRichard Hi. We do not have a drug ready for human use yet. But the goal is to help those with oca1b. We are developing better drugs for this purpose.

Melanin pigmentation of the skin and eyes has an essential role in the development of visual acuity and in preventing skin cancer risk. Inflammatory disorders of skin can cause significant depigmentation.

Thus, we have identified a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of diseases of hypopigmentation including OCA. In addition, we highlight how our LCMS tyrosine tracing technique can be used for in cell drug screening with changes in TYR activity seen in just 20 minutes
