Edesa Biotech Inc

Edesa Biotech, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company, which focuses on acquisition, development, and commercialization of drug candidates for medical dermatology and respiratory diseases. The company is headquartered in Markham, Ontario and currently employs 17 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2008-08-25. The Company’s clinical pipeline is focused on two therapeutic areas: medical dermatology and respiratory. In medical dermatology, the Company is developing EB06, an anti-CXCL10 monoclonal antibody candidate, as a therapy for vitiligo, a common autoimmune disorder that causes skin to lose its color in patches. Its medical dermatology assets also include EB01 (1.0% daniluromer cream), a Phase III-ready asset developed for use as a potential therapy for moderate-to-severe chronic allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), a common occupational skin condition. The Company’s advanced respiratory drug candidate is EB05 (paridiprubart), which is being evaluated in a United States government-funded platform study as a treatment for acute respiratory distress syndrome.
