ProBioGen & ImmunOs Therapeutics Team Up to Deliver Innovative Therapy for Cancer Patients
ProBioGen and ImmunOs Therapeutics recently announcd the extension of their partnership for further large-scale manufacturing of clinical material for IOS-1002, ImmunOs’ lead program for the treatment of cancer. ProBioGen previously developed the cell line and the manufacturing process and provided the initial clinical material for ImmunOs’ innovative biologic.
“We at ImmunOs are very satisfied with the work done by ProBioGen. We highly appreciate the collaborative partnership with ProBioGen and the team’s dedication and solution orientation. The tireless effort of the ProBioGen team has enabled ImmunOs to start clinical development as planned and to meet our milestones,” said Jeff Abbey, Chief Operating Officer of ImmunOs Therapeutics.
“Partnership is one of our core values, as it is key in working successfully together. With this in mind we are confident that our continuous collaboration is based on mutual trust and reliability,” added Dr. René Brecht, Chief Operations Officer of ProBioGen.
ImmunOs Therapeutics leverages its HLA-based technology platform to develop first-in-class therapeutics for the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. The company has identified specific HLA molecules known to activate the immune system and is utilizing these HLA molecules as the backbone of novel therapies capable of stimulating both the innate and the adaptive immune systems of cancer patients to eliminate tumor cells. ImmunOs’ lead program is a multi-functional fusion protein that blocks specific LILRB (leukocyte immunoglobulin-like) and KIR (killer cell immunoglobulin-like) receptors and activates anti-tumor responses. ImmunOs is also developing antibodies to block the activation of specific HLA protein molecules associated with autoimmune diseases.
