Founded in 2013, Syntimmune is advancing novel therapies based on its leading position in the biology of the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). FcRn is a well-validated target for IgG-mediated autoimmune diseases and represents a central common pathway that enables abnormal IgG responses. Syntimmune's lead candidate, SYNT001, is a biologic progressing through IND-enabling studies that specifically blocks the FcRn-IgG interaction and is being developed for the treatment of IgG-mediated autoimmune diseases. Syntimmune has two additional, earlier-stage therapeutic programs, targeting other unique aspects of FcRn biology. The Syntimmune team has world-class experience in the field of FcRn biology and has successfully pioneered and advanced biologics targeting FcRn, including approved therapies currently on the market.
