 PROFILE
SIGA Technologies is a development-stage company involved in developing vaccines, novel anti-infectives, and antibiotics for infectious diseases through its Siga Research Labs division. Its lead candidate is a vaccine for strep throat administered directly through the mucus-lined surfaces (mouth, nose, lungs, and gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts) that are the usual entry points for most infectious agents. Development partners include Wyeth-Ayerst (a unit of American Home Products), Chiron, and the Regents of the University of California. SIGA traded its PeerFinder instant messenger technology for a share of Open-i Media, and internet development company, but is now reducing its stake.
