"Taos Therapeutics is a pure-play start-up pharmaceutical company, pioneering a revolutionary first-in-class small molecule combo drug plus smart device to end the death and destruction of AUD. TAM = ~$30B. SAM = ~$10B." -Richard Gadomski MD MS - CEO/CMO & Co-Founder.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 31, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --
Our Mission
- Taos Therapeutics, led by Bob Munday & Dr. Richard Gadomski, is developing the first agonist + guardrail therapy with digital adherence for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD), a disease responsible for nearly 178,000 American deaths annually—significantly more than opioids and stimulants combined.
- Our sea change approach integrates proven generics with a smart device to deter relapse while addressing the fundamental neurobiology of AUD for the first time.
- With around 14 million U.S. adults affected and less than 3% receiving pharmacotherapy, the market opportunity is massive, especially considering that payer reimbursement models have already been proven in opioid addiction.
- We are pursuing a 505(b)(2) FDA pathway, leveraging existing safety data with clear 6–12 month de-risking milestones and accelerated approval.
- Taos is fortunate to have Bob Munday and his vast experience in pharmaceutical development heading up Ops!
- This transformational, first-in-class therapy has the potential for a direct line to M&A or IPO exit, establishing a new standard of care & watershed moment for AUD, as envisioned by Richard Gadomski MD.
