About us
Tridek-One is a spin-off from INSERM that develops first-in-class therapeutic agonistic antibodies targeting immune checkpoint inhibitory receptors for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
The company primarily focuses on the research and development of first-in-class anti-CD31 agonistic modalities designed to restore the immune balance. Anti-CD31 agonistic antibodies have the potential to provide targeted immunomodulatory activity with a favorable safety profile in diseases with high unmet clinical needs.
Fully leveraging its understanding of inhibitory checkpoint receptor modulation and agonistic antibodies engineering, a second discovery program was initiated for a novel therapeutic target.
Tridek-One is financed by leading European investors and led by an experienced management team.

Antibody-mediated CD31 agonism inhibits
activatory signal induced by ITAM receptors
Scientific rationale
Mode of action of ITIM receptors
- CD31 belongs to a family of receptors harboring immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs).
- ITIMs recruit and activate the tyrosine phosphatases SHP-1 and SHP-2, which can inhibit signaling pathways downstream of various ITAM immunoreceptors, leading to suppression of leukocyte activation.
Targeting CD31 and therapeutic opportunities
CD31 also known as PECAM-1 is a unique ITIM immunoreceptor due to its expression on the surface of cells from the innate and the adaptive immune system. CD31 agonists could potentially modulate:
- Neutrophil activation and recruitment during inflammation helping to promote the resolution of inflammation and prevent tissue damage;
- T cell activation by inhibiting signaling pathways downstream of TCRs leading to decreased T cell activation, proliferation, and cytokine production;
- B cell signaling by inhibiting the activation of the BCR leading to decreased B cell activation, proliferation, and antibody production.
