About Ratio Therapeutics
Ratio Therapeutics is committed to improving and extending the lives of cancer patients without sacrificing their quality of life. We are a team of passionate scientists, engineers, and business professionals dedicated to advancing the field of targeted radioligand therapy. To accomplish this, we utilize our proprietary TRILLIUM and MACROPA platforms: TRILLIUM allows fine-tuning of radioligand pharmacokinetics thereby enhancing the therapeutic index, while MACROPA simplifies the manufacturing process for the alpha-emitting isotope, actinium-225. These enabling platform technologies have resulted in an emergent pipeline of novel therapeutic candidates. We are looking for talented, dedicated, and creative individuals eager to help us advance these technologies from discovery research through clinical development. Join us in our quest to become the leading innovator in radioligand therapy and improve the lives of cancer patients and their families.
