Alder BioPharmaceuticals is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing, and commercializing therapeutic antibodies to improve treatment for migraine patients in the United States, Australia, and Ireland. The company's lead candidate, eptinezumab, is a monoclonal antibody targeting calcitonin gene-related peptide, currently in late-stage clinical development for migraine prevention. Alder is also developing ALD1910, a preclinical monoclonal antibody aimed at inhibiting pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide-38 for similar purposes, and Clazakizumab, which targets the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 and has completed two Phase 2b trials. In addition to its product development efforts, Alder engages in strategic collaborations, notably with CSL Limited for advancing clazakizumab as a treatment for solid organ transplant rejection. Incorporated in 2002 and headquartered in Bothell, Washington, Alder operates primarily in the United States, where it generates most of its revenue.
