About Oscotec

Translating Science into Medicine
WHO WE ARE

Founded in 1998, Oscotec Inc. is a Korea-based biotechnology company dedicated to discovering and developing innovative medicines. We identify disease-relevant mechanisms, validate drug–target–disease hypotheses, and advance the most promising candidates toward clinical proof-of-concept. Our capabilities span internal drug discovery, translational research, and clinical development, extended through open innovation and global partnerships.

 

This approach has translated our science into globally meaningful therapeutic opportunities. Lazertinib, a third-generation EGFR inhibitor discovered by Oscotec, is approved in major markets for EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer. Cevidoplenib, a next-generation oral SYK inhibitor for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) was out-licensed for worldwide development and commercialization. Adel-Y01, an anti-tau antibody for Alzheimer's disease, is advancing through a global partnership as well.
Building on this foundation, Oscotec is investing in the next generation of innovative medicines, with a particular focus on overcoming cancer therapy resistance and recurrence. We are also selectively pursuing opportunities in areas of high unmet needs where our scientific expertise and development capabilities can create lasting value. Through rigorous science, translational insight, and strategic collaboration, we aim to deliver meaningful and durable benefits to patients worldwide.
