Corporate Overview
Trillium Therapeutics Inc. (TTI), is a
biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of innovative therapies for the treatment of immune-mediated disorders. The Company's therapeutic approaches are aimed at restoring balance to the immune system in conditions associated with aberrant or harmful immune responses, such as autoimmune disease, inflammatory disorders, and cancer. TTI's objective is to create a broad and innovative pipeline of proprietary biologic product opportunities, as part of its overall strategy of building and solidifying its reputation as a premier R & D company.
The company’s business model is
to identify therapeutic candidates that have shown promise
in animal models and to rapidly advance these into clinical
testing. TTI is concentrating its efforts on preclinical and
early clinical drug development, with the primary objective
of demonstrating safety and proof-of-principle in man. The company has chosen
to establish development partnerships for some of its projects
at a preclinical stage, and anticipates advancing several others
into clinical development on its own.
TTI has seven scientific programs at various stages of preclinical testing. Four of these programs are in the field of immunoregulation, targeting the CD200-CD200R and CD47-SIRPa pathways. The fifth program targets the activing Fc receptor FcgRlla (CD32a), and the final two involve the use of a growth factor in the prevention of necrotizing enterocolitis and the treatment of interstitial cystitis.
