About Galectin Therapeutics

Galectin develops medicines for people with liver disease and cancer. Its main drug aims to slow liver damage in patients with fatty liver disease. The company’s research targets conditions with few current treatment options.

What’s in the Medicine Cabinet?

  • Belapectin (GR-MD-02): Lead drug in late-stage trials for liver fibrosis in fatty liver disease; also studied for cancer and other fibrotic diseases. Represents 0% of revenue as the company is pre-commercial.
  • GM-CT-01: Early-stage drug for heart and blood vessel scarring; not yet in human trials. 0% of revenue.
  • Small Molecule Inhibitors: Oral drugs in development for blocking galectin-3, a protein linked to disease progression. 0% of revenue.

Growth Moves: Not Just a Science Project

  • Formed joint venture Galectin Sciences, LLC with SBH Sciences to develop new oral drugs (year not specified).
  • Launched NAVIGATE Phase 2b/3 trial for belapectin in NASH cirrhosis, with protocol filed in 2020 and enrollment completed in early 2023.
  • Secured $10 million line of credit from chairman in July 2025 to support operations.
  • Filed for FDA clearance for a new cancer trial in 2022.

Why Galectin Is a Bit Different

Galectin focuses on diseases with few treatment options, using a unique approach that targets the galectin-3 protein. Its clinical trial design adapts to regulatory feedback, aiming for meaningful patient outcomes. The company’s small size allows for focused research and quick decision-making.

Five Things You Need to Know

  • No revenue reported for 2023, 2024, or 2025; all products are in development.
  • Net loss was $17.2 million for the first half of 2025, a 28.1% improvement from 2024.
  • Research and development expenses fell 45% year-over-year to $9.7 million in H1 2025.
  • Cash and equivalents were $13.8 million as of June 30, 2025, down from $15.1 million at year-end 2024.

Bottom Line

Galectin remains a research-focused company with no product sales and ongoing clinical trials. Its future depends on advancing its drug candidates and securing new funding.
