Surrozen, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing novel therapeutic antibodies that target the Wnt signaling pathway for applications in tissue repair, regeneration and oncology. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in South San Francisco, California, the company leverages its proprietary SurroBody platform to design bispecific antibody molecules capable of modulating Wnt receptor activity with enhanced tissue specificity.
The SurroBody platform enables the generation of high-affinity, dual-binding antibodies engineered to either activate or inhibit Wnt signaling, a pathway critical to cell proliferation, differentiation and homeostasis. Surrozen’s pipeline spans both preclinical and clinical stages and includes programs addressing ocular surface disease, gastrointestinal disorders and solid tumors—indications characterized by impaired tissue healing or dysregulated Wnt activity.
To advance its pipeline, Surrozen has entered into strategic collaborations and research agreements with academic institutions and biopharmaceutical partners. These alliances are aimed at validating novel Wnt targets, enhancing antibody design and accelerating the translation of lead candidates into clinical development. The company is actively preparing multiple investigational new drug applications and expects to initiate additional clinical trials in the near term.
Surrozen is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Laura Shawver, PhD, supported by a management team with deep expertise in antibody engineering, developmental biology and translational medicine. The company’s research and development operations are based in the San Francisco Bay Area, where it maintains dedicated laboratory and manufacturing facilities to support its growing pipeline.
