COUR Pharmaceuticals Development Co., Inc. (COUR Pharma) is a privately held, clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 2012 and headquartered in the Chicago area (Northbrook/Skokie, Illinois), spun out of research at Northwestern University. COUR develops antigen-specific immune tolerance therapies built on its proprietary COUR Nanoparticle (CNP) platform: biodegradable polymer nanoparticles of roughly 500 nm carrying about 1% disease-specific antigen, which mimic apoptotic bodies so that antigen-presenting cells in the liver and spleen re-recognize the antigen as self, deleting pathogenic T cells and expanding regulatory T cells. Active clinical programs include CNP-103 for Type 1 Diabetes and CNP-106 for Myasthenia Gravis, with earlier work in Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Celiac Disease. COUR is a therapeutics developer, not a software or platform company: it publishes no developer program, no public API, and no machine-readable API contract of any kind.
