Receptos had a particular focus on developing therapies for autoimmune diseases and inflammatory disorders, including multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, and psoriasis.

Ozanimod was being developed for the treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis and ulcerative colitis.

In July 2015, Celgene announced that it had agreed to acquire Receptos for $7.2 billion. The acquisition was completed in August 2015. Celgene continued to develop ozanimod, which was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in March 2019 for the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis.
