Vir Biotechnology leverages the immense potential of the immune system to address critical unmet medical needs and improve patient outcomes

Our pipeline is built on two technology platforms which enable us to rapidly identify, optimize and advance candidates from concepts to the clinic: our next-generation antibody platform and our PRO-XTEN™ protease-releasable masking platform in infectious diseases and cancer, respectively. 

We focus on the therapeutic areas in which we believe we can most benefit patients. Our foundational efforts in infectious diseases, with leading programs in chronic hepatitis delta and chronic hepatitis B, are complemented by strategic programs in oncology. We have broken ground in immunology, demonstrating our ability to discover, engineer and develop antibody-based medicines for two of the greatest health challenges of our time: COVID-19 and Ebola.

Every day, we work with the utmost urgency to deliver potentially transformative medicines for patients. 

Our Technology Platforms

Vir Biotechnology has exclusive rights to the PRO-XTEN™ masking platform for oncology and infectious disease. PRO-XTEN™ is a trademark of Amunix Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Sanofi company.

“At Vir Biotechnology we engineer antibodies into powerful, impactful medicines, and deliver them to patients who are waiting - fast. We are fueled by the company’s deep capabilities in knowledge of immunology, and our ability to apply that knowledge to power the human immune system to fight disease and transform patients’ lives for the better.”
