About
Uncommon Therapeutics is a biotech company founded by Noah Auerhahn — directly inspired by his daughter's diagnosis with Rett Syndrome, a severe genetic neurological disease affecting approximately 1 in 10,000 girls — applying a polytherapy approach (combining multiple therapeutic agents targeting different disease mechanisms simultaneously) to develop treatments for serious neurological and rare diseases. After improving his daughter's quality of life through a personally developed polytherapy protocol, Auerhahn founded Uncommon Therapeutics to translate these insights into pharmaceutical products for the broader Rett Syndrome patient community.
