About Us

Coronado Biosciences is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on making cancer care better. How do we define better? We hope to make cancer care safer and more easily tolerated with improved outcomes.

At Coronado Biosciences, we in-license promising therapies during late pre-clinical study and shepherd them through the drug development process. Our approach centers on refining identified product candidates and choosing therapeutic areas that allow for rapid progress from pharm/tox studies, through IND, and into proof-of-concept clinical trials. This model allows us to maximize product development opportunities, minimize potential risks associated with drug discovery, research, and earlier-stage activities, and maximize value inflections for investors.

Our current drug candidates are based on related therapies with proven safety and biological activity in humans.
