Corporate Profile
Incorporated in 2003, Endotis Pharma is a specialty pharma company dedicated to the discovery and development of small-glyco drugs (SGDs) for applications in thrombosis and oncology.

Endotis will seek to partner antithrombotic drugs when proof of concept in man is reached, and to partner its oncology platform after proof of concept in animals is reached.
Endotis will also study other partnering opportunities.
In order to guide Endotis development, the company has built a strong management team under the leadership of Charles Woler, and assembled a Scientific Advisory Board and a Clinical Advisory Board with worldwide renowned in Glycoscience and Thrombosis.
