Endotis Pharma is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the discovery and development of small-glyco drugs (SGDs, heparin / heparan sulphate mimetics) for use in thrombosis, oncology and a range of other indications with several potential blockbuster drugs. Founded in february 2003, Endotis is a privately held company which currently employs 34 people between sites in Paris and Lille.
Endotis’ business model is to develop antithrombotic drugs in man until proof-of principle (oral anticoagulants) or Phase IIb dose finding (parenteral antithrombotics), and then partner them; while in other therapeutic areas such as oncology, partnering could take place once proof of concept in animal is demonstrated.
Endotis has three main areas of activity:
– A derisked thrombosis franchise of heparin-derived synthetic oligosaccharides
– An oncology pipeline consisting of heparan sulfate mimetics
– A drug discovery engine: unique know-how from discovery to manufacturing of small-glyco drugs (SGDs) with range of applications
