Overview
Mereo BioPharma Group plc is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on rare diseases. Founded in 2015, it acquires high-potential novel therapies that were not being progressed in pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies for strategic reasons, and develops them with a capital-efficient model.

The company is listed on NASDAQ under the ticker MREO and is headquartered in London, United Kingdom.
History
Mereo BioPharma Group plc was founded in 2015, empowered by the recognition that there are many high-potential novel therapies that are not being progressed in pharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. In 2015, the company acquired three quality clinical stage product candidates from Novartis, and in 2017 it acquired one from AstraZeneca. In 2019, Mereo merged with OncoMed, which provided its NASDAQ listing, strengthened its balance sheet and broadened its shareholder base. In late 2020, Mereo signed a license and collaboration agreement with Ultragenyx for its clinical development program in osteogenesis imperfecta, retaining commercial rights in Europe.
