Mereo BioPharma Group plc (NASDAQ: MREO) is a United Kingdom-based biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing innovative therapeutics for rare and specialty diseases. The company's primary focus is on acquiring and advancing mid-stage development programs from larger pharmaceutical firms, aiming to transform patient quality of life and improve human health. Mereo's strategy includes optimizing the commercial value of its programs through strategic partnerships or, for select opportunities, by commercializing products independently.
Mereo has a robust pipeline of late-stage clinical product candidates, particularly in rare disease areas. The company's flagship candidates include setrusumab for Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) and alvelestat for severe Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency-associated Lung Disease (AATD-LD). Setrusumab, developed in partnership with Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical Inc., has shown promising results in reducing the annualized fracture rate by 67% in OI patients. The Phase 2/3 Orbit study continues to enroll patients, aiming for regulatory approvals from both the FDA and EMA.
Alvelestat, another key candidate, has demonstrated significant effects in clinical trials, including the ATALANTa study. The data supports its use for AATD-LD, and the company is aligning with both the FDA and EMA on Phase 3 study designs, targeting a broader patient population. Mereo is actively seeking partners for further development and commercialization of alvelestat.
Additionally, Mereo is advancing its oncology pipeline with candidates such as etigilimab (anti-TIGIT) and navicixizumab. Etigilimab is in a Phase 1b/2 trial for recurrent/advanced solid tumors, while navicixizumab has completed a Phase 1 study and is under a global licensing agreement with OncXerna Therapeutics Inc.
Financially, Mereo reported cash and short-term deposits of £51.2 million as of September 30, 2023, with a cash runway extending into 2026. The company has also recently entered into a global license agreement with ReproNovo SA for leflutrozole, a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor.
Mereo BioPharma's commitment to rare disease therapeutics positions it as a significant player in the biopharmaceutical landscape, with ongoing advancements in its clinical programs and strategic partnerships shaping its path forward.
