Eledon Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Eledon Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing tegoprubart, an anti-CD40L antibody, for transplant and autoimmune-related indications. The company has no approved products and is still in the research, clinical development, and regulatory pathway, so its business is centered on advancing a single lead asset and securing financing to support development.
