About Us
Lyterian Therapeutics is committed to developing transformative medicines for patients by co-opting physiologically relevant protein homeostatic mechanisms to regulate genetically-validated targets.
Lyterian is derived from λυτήριος or lutḗrios, which means termination, healing, or end of disease.
Disease resolution is coordinated by endogenous and exogenous agents that recruit cells and other effectors to the site of injury. We are inspired to learn from the logic that orchestrates homeostatic equilibria and drives healing, and incorporate these learnings in the design of our medicines.
