La Jolla Pharmaceutical aimed to eliminate diseases. The development-stage firm was working with Toleragens, proprietary therapies that block the abnormal antibody production associated with certain autoimmune disorders without suppressing the entire immune system. Its lead drug candidate was Riquent, a treatment for renal disease associated with lupus. The drug would have been one of the few new drugs for lupus. La Jolla was also exploring the use of Toleragens to fight other autoimmune disorders such as antibody-mediated stroke and deep vein thrombosis. The company ceased most of its operations and announced plans to liquidate after trials of Riquent failed in 2009. To read the full description, subscribe now.
