Biosplice Therapeutics

Biosplice Therapeutics, Inc. is a privately held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company headquartered in San Diego, California, founded in 2008 by Osman Kibar and known until its 2020 rename as Samumed, LLC (samumed.com still redirects to biosplice.com). The company develops first-in-class small-molecule therapeutics that act on novel components of the Wnt signaling pathway and on the regulation of alternative pre-mRNA splicing. Its lead program is lorecivivint, an investigational intra-articular knee injection for osteoarthritis, positioned against a stated unmet need of "over 50 million US patients suffer from osteoarthritis, with no drugs available to arrest the disease"; the candidate has completed Phase 3 study and a New Drug Application has been submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Programs outside lorecivivint — neurology, diabetes and oncology — are developed by the company's affiliate TenaRx, Inc. The company is led by Erich Horsley (Chief Executive Officer) with Osman Kibar as Founder and Executive Chairman, Yusuf Yazici as Chief Medical Officer, Phil Wilson as Chief Financial Officer and Scott W. Bulcao as Chief Legal Officer. Biosplice is a drug-discovery and clinical-development organization, not a software vendor: biosplice.com is a small ASP.NET corporate site covering mission, board, management, advisors, programs, publications, news and careers, and the company publishes no developer program of any kind — no API, no SDK, no developer portal, no GitHub organization and no machine-readable API contract.

Biosplice Therapeutics is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, Life Sciences, and Drug Development.

scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/biosplice-therapeutics: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
