Company Overview

Belite Bio, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing treatments for serious retinal diseases. The company’s research centers on therapies designed to address the underlying biological processes that contribute to vision loss, including the accumulation of toxic vitamin A–derived compounds in the retina.

Belite Bio’s lead product candidate is tinlarebant, also known as LBS-008. Tinlarebant is an orally administered retinol-binding protein 4 antagonist intended to reduce the delivery of vitamin A to the retina and limit the formation of toxic bisretinoids. The company is evaluating tinlarebant in Stargardt disease, an inherited retinal disorder, and geographic atrophy associated with dry age-related macular degeneration.

Founded in 2018 and headquartered in San Diego, California, Belite Bio conducts clinical development activities in multiple geographic markets. The company’s pipeline remains focused on ophthalmic diseases with significant unmet medical needs, and its product candidates are investigational and have not been established as safe or effective for commercial use.
