Curileum Discovery Ltd United Kingdom

Curileum Discovery Ltd is an new regenerative medicine company in London focused on identifying the underlying causes of serious gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, and repairing or replacing damaged cells in tissues. Effective tissue regeneration requires activation of endogenous healthy stem cells, rare cells in tissues that are the very source of lifelong tissue renewal.

We are applying three decades of stem cell drug discovery and development experience to unlock a whole new range of therapeutic targets to kill defective stem cells and to activate healthy stem cells to restore health to the intestine.

With access to a large supply of patient tissues and leading clinical collaborators, we can rapidly test hypotheses on defined patient populations to discover and support target development for therapeutics and molecular diagnostics.

We have a proven track record of delivery along with streamlined business, legal, and project management capabilities in our discovery and development partnerships with pharmaceutical companies.
