Who we are
Our vision
Driven by a true understanding of the critical nature of our mission, we harness the power of science, with our knowledge of the rare diseases we seek to treat and deep relationships with all our stakeholders, to create new possibilities for patients who need them. We do this in a focused and capital efficient manner.
How we work
We operate with the utmost efficiency to maximize our resources and speed up development. We are agile, so we can quickly and easily respond to both challenges and opportunities. And we are innovative and brave, with the courage to explore new frontiers in the pursuit of new possibilities for patients.
Our history
Mereo BioPharma (Mereo) was founded in March 2015 to fund and develop high-potential novel therapies that were not being progressed in pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. We acquired a portfolio of three product candidates from Novartis in July 2015 and a fourth product from AstraZeneca in October 2017. In April 2019, Mereo merged with OncoMed, a Nasdaq-listed clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing novel oncology products. Thanks to this merger, we have been able to strengthen the balance sheet, broaden our shareholder base and further diversity our product portfolio, adding two additional clinical stage oncology programs to our pipeline.
