Key information

🔎 Fund Overview

Alaunos Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage oncology-focused cell therapy company. It is engaged in developing adoptive TCR engineered T-cell therapies (TCR-T), designed to treat multiple solid tumor types in large cancer patient populations. It is leveraging its cancer mutation hotspot TCR library and its non-viral Sleeping Beauty genetic engineering technology to design and manufacture patient-specific cell therapies that target neoantigens arising from common tumor-related mutations in oncogenic genes, including KRAS, TP53 and EGFR. Its TCR library consists of ten TCRs targeting six solid tumor indications, such as non-small cell lung, colorectal, endometrial, pancreatic, ovarian and bile duct cancers. Using its human neoantigen T cell Receptor discovery engine, it analyzes thousands of single T cells simultaneously using bioinformatics and next generation sequencing. Its pipeline in cell therapy for oncology consists of Library TCR-T cell therapy and mbIL-15 TCR-T cell therapy.
