Our Science

Unlocking the Full Potential of T Cell Therapy

Selective in vivo expansion of tumor-specific T cells enabling persistent and strong anti-tumor responses

Our Novel Combination Approach Delivers Superior Cell Therapy Outcomes:

 

  • Enhanced Efficacy – Selective in vivo expansion, activation and persistence of tumor-specific T cells
  • Improved Safety – Eliminates systemic IL-2 dosing and its associated toxicities
  • Simplified Treatment – Limits the need for patient lymphodepletion preconditioning
  • Lower Costs, Faster Delivery – Enables reduced T cell therapy doses, lower costs and shorter vein-to-vein times
  • Broad Scalability – Addresses broad patient needs across multiple cancer indications
  • Simple Engineering – Naturally occurring T cell receptors with clinically validated off the shelf biologics booster

Limitations in T Cell Therapy

Our Transformative Approach

  • Need for very high T cell therapy doses
  • Need for systemic and toxic cytokine administration
  • Complex engineering and high manufacturing costs
  • Lack of long term-efficacy and persistence
  • Starting with a very low T cell therapy dose
  • Expanding and sustaining tumor-specific T cells
  • Clinically validated and safe T cell booster
  • No complex cell engineering and manipulation

Selecting the Best Naturally Occurring T Cell Receptors

Our Deep Immunomics platform enables discovery and selection of natural occurring TCRs with high potency and no cross-reactivity.

Precise Activation and Expansion of Tumor-Specific T Cells

ImmunoSTATâ„¢ Platform CUE-100 Series

  • Clinically validated and tolerated
    (safe administered to 100+ Patients)
  • Off-the-shelf availability
  • Flexible antigen and HLA modularity
  • Ease of manufacturability and scale

Mimicking the Natural Immune Synapse

  • Selective binding by T cells expressing the cognate TCR
  • Two-signal activation mediated through the specific TCR and the costimulatory domain
  • Exclusive activation and expansion of tumor-epitope specific T cells
