Company Overview
Dyax's mission is to discover, develop, and commercialize innovative biopharmaceuticals for unmet medical needs while delivering outstanding value to patients and stockholders.
At the core of our success is our powerful and proprietary drug discovery technology, phage display. This technology provides us a unique advantage of being able to identify and develop our own clinical leads to fuel our internal pipeline. We also leverage phage display into licenses and collaborations with companies and researchers interested in furthering their own pipelines.
Our Areas of Focus:
-
KALBITOR® (ecallantide) Discovered and developed by Dyax, KALBITOR is now available in the US. To find out more and to see Important Safety Information and Full Prescribing Information including Boxed Warning and Medication Guide visit www.KALBITOR.com.
-
Ecallantide Franchise Our lead drug candidate is ecallantide, a potent and selective plasma kallikrein inhibitor–a key mediator of inflammation. Ecallantide's potential is being investigated in other angioedema indications (e.g., ACE inhibitor-induced). Ecallantide is also being investigated by our partner, Fovea/sanofi aventis, for treating retinal vein occlusion induced macular edema.
-
Discovery Pipeline In addition to our clinical programs, our technology and expertise has allowed us to build a broad pipeline of discovery/preclinical programs focused on finding new therapies for unmet medical needs.
-
Licensing and Funded Research Program (LFRP) We make our proprietary phage display libraries and discovery capabilities available to partners and collaborators through revenue-generating licenses. Under this extensive licensing program, partners can benefit from the same technology we apply to our own clinical development pursuits.
