Mereo BioPharma Group is a clinical‐stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel therapies for rare diseases, oncology, and other specialty indications. The company pursues a pipeline of product candidates with well‐characterized mechanisms of action, aiming to address unmet medical needs in areas such as osteogenesis imperfecta, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and solid tumors. Mereo leverages a licensing and collaboration model to acquire, advance, and out‐license assets, partnering with global biopharma organizations to maximize development expertise and geographic reach.
Key product candidates include setrusumab (an anti‐sclerostin antibody for the treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta), acumapimod (an oral p38 MAP kinase inhibitor for acute exacerbations of COPD), and navicixizumab (an anti‐DLL4/VEGF bispecific antibody for solid tumors). Each program is supported by preclinical research and clinical trial data designed to evaluate safety, efficacy, and potential market differentiation. By focusing on rare and underserved patient populations, Mereo BioPharma aims to deliver therapies that may receive orphan drug designation or other expedited regulatory pathways.
Founded in 2014 through the merger of complementary development-stage companies, Mereo BioPharma is headquartered in London with a presence in the United States. The company’s leadership team comprises seasoned industry professionals with experience in drug discovery, clinical development, regulatory affairs, and commercial strategy. Under the guidance of its executive management and board of directors, Mereo has built strategic alliances with research institutions and global pharmaceutical partners to accelerate its clinical programs and expand its scientific expertise.
With operations spanning Europe, North America, and Asia, Mereo BioPharma continues to advance its portfolio through key clinical milestones while exploring opportunities for new in-licensing deals. The company’s research and development activities are supported by a network of contract research organizations and manufacturing partners, ensuring efficient progression from early‐stage studies to late‐stage registrational trials. As Mereo advances its pipeline toward potential approvals, it remains committed to improving outcomes for patients with serious and life‐threatening conditions.
