Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Entera Bio Ltd. (ENTX.US) presents a mixed ethical profile. The company is dedicated to developing oral therapies for conditions like osteoporosis and hypoparathyroidism, with EB613 showing Phase 2 results comparable to injectable Forteo, potentially improving treatment accessibility. However, critics point to the company's engagement in animal testing for research, with no publicly available evidence of efforts to reduce animal use or invest in alternatives. Regarding worker respect, reports suggest the CEO's compensation for 2023 was $950, though data on median employee pay or equity is unavailable. The company's products are still in clinical stages, with limited information on price accessibility.
