Developer of next-generation switchable CAR T-cell immunotherapies. This company develops allogeneic platforms to address shortcomings of current T cell-based immunotherapies. Their technology offers powerful controllability of CAR-T reactivity while maintaining high anti-tumor activity. A switchable on/off mechanism, using universal effector cells and soluble adaptors, allows precise targeting of cancer antigens. Rapid switchability lowers the risk of side effects, improving the therapeutic window and safety. The focus is on overcoming limitations of current CAR-T cell therapies.

Developer of thymus-targeted medicines for autoimmune disease treatment and prevention. It focuses on restoring central immune tolerance through bifunctional antibodies. These antibodies deliver self-antigens to antigen-presenting cells in the thymus. This process harnesses the body’s natural ability to train immune cells to recognize and tolerate self, thereby halting autoimmune attacks. The pipeline includes a program for Type 1 diabetes. It also includes discovery programs for other autoimmune diseases.
