About

Arteaus Therapeutics was a Cambridge, Massachusetts-based virtual biotechnology company focused on developing a novel antibody therapy targeting calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) for the prevention of migraine headaches. Founded in 2011 with an $18 million Series A from Atlas Venture and OrbiMed Advisors, the company licensed the CGRP antibody from Eli Lilly and advanced it through Phase 2 clinical trials before Lilly reacquired full development rights in 2014. Arteaus retained a global royalty interest in the resulting drug, Emgality, which it subsequently sold to Royalty Pharma for $260 million in 2019.
