BUSINESS SUMMARY 
Trimeris, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company, engages primarily in the commercialization of a class of fusion inhibitors for antiviral drug treatments. Its fusion inhibitors impair viral fusion, a complex process by which viruses attach to, penetrate, and infect host cells. The company offers FUZEON, a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) fusion inhibitor and a 36-amino acid synthetic peptide that binds to a key region of an HIV surface protein called gp41 under a collaboration with F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd. Its FUZEON inhibitor blocks HIV viral fusion by interfering with certain structural rearrangements within gp41 that are required for HIV to fuse to and enter a host cell. FUZEON is approved in the United States, Canada, and the European Union. The company also holds TRI-1144, a next generation fusion inhibitor candidate that completed Phase I clinical trials. Trimeris, Inc. was founded in 1993 and is based in Durham, North Carolina.
