Company Overview

Viridian Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing treatments for serious diseases involving the immune system. The company’s primary focus is thyroid eye disease (TED), an autoimmune disorder that can cause inflammation, pain, swelling and vision-related complications.

Viridian’s lead programs target the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R), a pathway associated with TED. Its pipeline has included investigational therapies such as veligrotug (VRDN-001), an intravenous antibody designed to block IGF-1R, and subcutaneous formulations intended to provide more convenient administration. The company is also evaluating additional pipeline candidates for potential use in TED and other immune-mediated conditions.

Based in the United States, Viridian conducts research and clinical development activities through collaborations and clinical programs that may involve multiple geographic regions. Its therapies remain investigational unless approved by applicable regulatory authorities, and the company’s development programs are subject to clinical, regulatory and commercial risks.
