Oncothyreon pursues strategic alliances to expedite development of products based on the Company's fundamental technologies. Oncothyreon evaluates collaboration, in-licensing and out-licensing opportunities that have the potential to complement the company's strengths and move product candidates through to commercialization.
Partnering Opportunites:
- Small Molecules - Oncothyreon expects to partner its small molecule candidates for late stage clinical development and marketing
- Adjuvant Partnering - Oncothyreon has acquired or developed vaccine technologies that are available for license. This includes the fully synthetic toll-like receptor 4 agonist pet lipid-A.

Synthetic Lipid A Analogs
Pet lipid-A is widely known as a toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) agonist. Our synthetic lipid analogs are easy to formulate with vaccines and provide strong innate immune stimulation. Pet lipid-A has been manufactured under cGMP as an adjuvant for vaccine formulations for clinical trials.
