Description: Trillium Therapeutics Inc. (TTI) is a privately-owned, Toronto-based biopharmaceutical company with two main areas of focus: cytoprotection and immune regulation. The Company's cytoprotection programs are based upon a recombinant form of heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF). In the immune regulation space, Trillium is developing a suite of innovate immunomodulatory products that are capable of either suppressing the immune system, for the treatment of autoimmunity, inflammation and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), or activating the immune system, for the treatment of cancer. Specifically, Trillium’s portfolio includes: • Two cytoprotective programs around TTI-1612, a recombinant growth factor that is being developed as a treatment for interstitial cystitis (IC) and for the prevention of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Trillium recently commenced a single ascending dose trial in IC patients. • Three pre-clinical cancer programs, including a fully human CD200-specific monoclonal antibody, a Fc fusion protein CD47 antagonist, and a SIRPa agonist.
