Equillium, Inc. files its annual report describing a preclinical-stage biotechnology business focused on therapies for severe autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The company’s lead program, EQ504, is an aryl hydrocarbon receptor modulator initially targeted for ulcerative colitis and other gastrointestinal and inflammatory lung diseases.
EQ302 is a first-in-class, orally delivered inhibitor of IL‑15 and IL‑21 being evaluated for celiac disease and other gastrointestinal indications. Equillium expanded its pipeline through acquiring Ariagen in October 2024 for EQ504 and Bioniz in February 2022 for EQ302 and related peptide platforms.
The company strengthened its balance sheet via an August 2025 private placement raising approximately $30.0 million and a March 2026 private placement raising approximately $35.0 million, with an additional potential $20.0 million second closing tied to clinical and stock price milestones.

Equillium, Inc. reported fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results showing a shift to a development-stage model focused on its EQ504 program. Full-year 2025 revenue was $0 compared with $41.1M in 2024, reflecting the conclusion of prior Ono-related revenue.
Research and development expenses fell sharply to $12.8M from $37.4M, and general and administrative expenses declined to $10.8M from $11.9M. Despite lower operating costs, the full-year net loss widened to $22.4M, or $(0.39) per share, versus a $8.1M loss, or $(0.23) per share, in 2024, mainly because revenue dropped.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $30.3M as of December 31, 2025, up from $22.6M a year earlier. Together with a $50M private placement announced in August 2025 and a $35M private placement in March 2026, the company believes it can fund planned operations into 2029. Equillium plans to initiate a Phase 1 proof-of-mechanism study of EQ504 in mid-2026, with data expected about six months later.
