Ilya Pharma 🇸🇪🇺🇸 is developing immunotherapies for the treatment of diseases in skin and mucosa. Ilya Pharma develops the next generation of biological immunotherapies using a single GMO microorganism as both factory and delivery mechanism of therapeutic, human-endogenous, proteins that cannot be developed as biologics. We are a leading-edge Swedish biopharmaceutical company founded in 2016 and now working on several break-though drug candidates currently in clinical phase I and II/III. Our proprietary technology platform allows use of therapeutic, human-endogenous, proteins that cannot be developed as biologics. The ILP-platform uses lactic acid bacteria expressing human endogenous, immunomodulative proteins which act locally in both skin and mucosal body surfaces. More exciting innovation will follow. Ilya Pharma is working to revolutionize the field of regenerative medicine, and Innumology and inflammation: In a market counting patients in the millions, our first product will accelerate wound healing - including chronic diabetes-related wounds & surgical incisions in elevated-risk patients - and will be closely followed by a second product aimed at saving lives by addressing treatment-induced enteropathies in the GI tract through a simple, locally-acting orally administered capsule.
