About
Aplagon is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class therapeutics for thromboinflammatory diseases. It is based on pioneering research on mast cell-derived heparin proteoglycans (HEP-PG) by Prof. Riitta Lassila's group at the Wihuri Research Institute in Helsinki, Finland, which led to Aplagon's lead candidate APAC — a heparin proteoglycan mimetic now in clinical studies across two lead cardiovascular indications. Aplagon's offices and laboratory are at Biomedicum Helsinki, a prominent life-science hub in Finland.
