Alaunos Therapeutics Inc is a clinical-stage cellular immuno-oncology company dedicated to the treatment of solid tumors through adoptive TCR-T cell therapy. It strikes cancer at its core by engineering cell therapies that target Neoantigens arising from genomic mutations.
Vaccinex Inc is pioneering a differentiated approach to treating cancer and slowly progressive neurodegenerative diseases through the inhibition of semaphorin 4D (SEMA4D). The company's lead drug candidate, pepinemab, blocks SEMA4D, a potent biological effector that it believes prevents immune infiltration into tumors and triggers inflammation in chronic diseases of the brain. Pepinemab is being evaluated in a Phase 1b/2 study in recurrent or metastatic head and neck cancer and in a Phase 1/2a study in Alzheimer's Disease, with ongoing exploration of potential Phase 3 development in Huntington's disease. The firm has also developed a proprietary drug discovery platform, ActivMAb.
