Genocea Biosciences, Inc. - [NASDAQ:GNCA]

T cells are increasingly recognized as a critical element of the body’s protective immune response to a cancer. While traditional immunotherapy discovery methods have largely used predictive algorithms to find target antigens, we have been able to successfully leverage ATLASTM, our proprietary, high-throughput technology platform, to identify target antigens of T cells based on actual human immune responses.We are focused on using ATLAS’s superiority in neoantigen identification to develop neoantigen cancer vaccines. Neoantigens are personalized tumor mutations that are seen as ‘foreign’ by an individual’s immune system. Data published in recent years have indicated that an individual’s response to neoantigens drives checkpoint inhibitor efficacy and that it is possible to vaccinate an individual against their own neoantigens.GEN-009 is our most advanced candidate neoantigen vaccine for which we expect to initiate a Phase 1 clinical trial in the first half of 2018.  GEN-009 is an adjuvanted neoantigen peptide vaccine that is designed to direct a patient’s immune system to attack their tumor. GEN-009’s neoantigen peptides are identified by Genocea’s proprietary ATLAS platform, which recalls a patient’s pre-existing CD4+ and CD8+ T cell immune responses to their tumor. Following ATLAS neoantigen identification, Genocea will manufacture a personal vaccine for each patient.

Hookipa Biotech AG

Hookipa Biotech AG is a clinical stage biotech company aiming to develop best-in-class active immunization therapies for infectious diseases and oncology.Our proprietary TheraT® and Vaxwave® platforms have shown promising abilities to elicit high neutralizing antibody responses, but also necessary levels of T cell responses, currently missing in most vaccine and therapeutic approaches. Hookipa’s vectors are not impeded by vector-neutralizing antibodies and can be administered repeatedly, providing even greater immune protection. Levels of specific T cells generated by TheraT® are unprecedented in the field and have the potential to transform active immune-therapy in cancers.We have completed the active phase of a Phase 1 trial of a Vaxwave®-based vaccine against cytomegalovirus (CMV) and are finalizing clinical development plans for TheraT® in Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)- related head and neck cancers.

Immunicum AB - [STO: IMMU]

Immunicum is developing novel immuno-oncology therapies against a range of solid tumors. The approach is based on allogeneic dendritic cells that are designed to stimulate a personalized anti-tumor immune response in each patient. The Company’s lead compound, ilixadencel is currently being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of kidney cancer, liver cancer and gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Ilixadencel combines the best aspects of two approaches: a cell-based, cost-effective and off-the-shelf immune enhancer that when injected intratumorally is capable of triggering a highly specific and potentially long-lasting immune reaction against tumor cells throughout the body.

Lycera

Lycera is a private biopharmaceutical company developing novel oral immune modulators for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and cancer. Based on successful progress of its world-class R&D platform, Lycera has advanced two programs into clinical development. Lycera’s most advanced wholly owned in cancer immunotherapy focuses on oral, selective RORγ agonists. The retinoic acid-related orphan receptor-gamma t (RORγt) is a nuclear receptor transcription factor that acts as a immune cell master control switch driving the generation and function of Th17 (helper T-cells) and Tc17 (cytotoxic) immune cells. Lycera’s clinical stage RORγ agonist, LYC-55716, combines multiple anti-tumor mechanisms into a single therapeutic by modulating gene expression to reprogram immune cells for improved function, as well as decrease immunosuppressive mechanisms.  LYC-55716 has completed Phase 1 single agent clinical studies, demonstrating a well tolerated profile, disease stabilization in a subset of patients as well as a confirmed partial response in a patient with advanced non-small cell lung cancer which did not respond to checkpoint inhibitor or combination chemotherapy.  LYC-55716 is currently in a Phase 2a study with 6 cohorts of patients with advanced solid tumors as well as in a Phase 1b combination study in non-small cell lung cancer in combination with anti-PD-1. The company is also advancing a wholly owned, oral, gut- directed ATPase modulator, designated LYC-30937-EC, for the treatment of autoimmune disease.  Additionally early stage research programs are focused on advancing differentiated oral small molecules for novel targets in immuno-oncology.  Lycera has an exclusive strategic collaboration with Celgene Corporation to advance Lycera’s proprietary pipeline for cancer and immune-mediated diseases.

Medicenna Therapeutics, Corp. - [TSE: MDNA]

Our most advanced program, MDNA55, specifically targets the Interleukin-4 Receptor (IL4R), which is over-expressed by at least 20 different types of cancer affecting more than one million new cancer patients every year. Medicenna’s lead IL4-EC, MDNA55 is currently enrolling patients in a Phase 2b clinical trial for rGBM at leading brain cancer centres in the US. MDNA55 has completed 3 clinical trials in 72 patients, including 66 adults with rGBM, demonstrated compelling efficacy and obtained Fast-Track and Orphan Drug status from USFDA.Unlike most other cancer therapies, Medicenna’s IL4-ECs have the potential to purge both the tumor and the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), offering a unique treatment paradigm for a large majority of cancer patients.Our approach to treat brain and other aggressive cancers received strong validation by a recent award of a $14.1M non-dilutive grant from the Cancer Prevention and Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT).The treatment plan for the MDNA55 clinical trial includes our IL4R targeted drug MDNA55, precision image-guided convection enhanced delivery (CED) and real-time monitoring of drug distribution to ensure optimal delivery of the drug.Treatment involves direct one-time intra-tumoral infusion of MDNA55 using CED. Image guided CED provides intra-tumoral delivery with sub-millimeter precision and real-time monitoring ensures uniform distribution of MDNA55 into the brain tumor and its infiltrative edges. We believe that this personalized approach by-passes the blood brain barrier (BBB), avoids potential systemic side effects and has the potential to reduce the risk of tumor recurrence – problems that have continued to plague this difficult to treat disease.In addition to brain cancers, the IL4R is a marker for highly aggressive forms of solid and blood tumors affecting more than a million new cancer patients every year. The IL4/IL4R bias is known to play a central role in the establishment of a robust immunosuppressive tumor micro-environment (TME), is expressed by cancer stem cells and is generally associated with poor survival outcomes. MDNA55 and Medicenna’s next generation fully human IL4-EC platform (MDNA57) have the potential to mature into an important class of treatments addressing large unmet needs in oncology.

Triumvira Immunologics

Triumvira Immunologics is a biotechnology company developing a novel platform for engineering T cells to attack cancers.  In order to do this, we, like others, remove white blood cells from patients, use genetic engineering to direct T cells, which are an important component of the immune system, to recognize a protein found on the surface of certain cancer cells.  We then expand these reprogrammed T cells so they can be administered back to the patient, where they will find the cancer cells and kill them.  We believe our innovative and proprietary technology, called the T cell-Antigen Coupler (or TAC), possesses advantages over other approaches because of the nature of the TAC construct.Triumvira has licensed the TAC technology from the laboratory of Jonathan Bramson, PhD, of McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario and we are currently supporting a broad research effort in Dr. Bramson’s lab. Our team is continuing to explore the biology and potential of TAC-T cells, developing TACs against a variety of cancer targets, and scaling up the manufacturing process. Our goal is to begin human testing of TAC T cells by the end of 2017. Our team and our network of academic and industry consultants brings broad industry experience and deep scientific understanding to the TAC program.
