Trevena: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

Trevena is a privately owned biopharmaceutical company based in King of Prussia, PA, focused on developing GPCR biased ligands. Founded in 2007, Trevena aims to turn innovative research on GPCR signaling into new medications. They are working on three programs: TRV027 for acute heart failure, TRV130 for postoperative pain, and TRV734 for acute and chronic pain. Additionally, Trevena has a number of drug discovery programs in progress. GPCRs are targeted by a significant percentage of current drugs, but there is room for improvement due to limited efficacy and side effects. Trevena's approach has potential to address these issues across various receptors and medical fields.

About FundedIQ's Trevena Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Trevena is left off this page rather than filled in.
