About Evelo Biosciences

­

Evelo Biosciences, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing monoclonal microbials, a potential new modality of oral biologic medicines. Evelo's product candidates are single strains of microbes, selected for defined pharmacological properties. They are developed to activate multiple naturally evolved biological pathways by engaging immune cells that link the small intestine to the rest of the body. Evelo believes that monoclonal microbials have the potential to be broadly applicable across many immune-mediated diseases including inflammation, cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Evelo currently has three product candidates, EDP1066 and EDP1815 for the treatment of inflammatory diseases and EDP1503 for the treatment of cancer, for which ten clinical readouts are expected during 2019 and 2020. Evelo is also advancing additional candidates through preclinical development in other disease areas.
