TRANSFORMATIVE CANCER THERAPIES. TARGETED IMPACT.
Immunotherapy represents one of the greatest advances for people living with cancer, but off-target effects remain a challenge in the clinical setting.
Our technology is designed to unleash validated and proven proinflammatory mechanisms on tumors while preventing unwanted side effects on non-target tissue. We create systemically delivered targeted therapies that address the limitations of immuno-oncology.
Werewolf Therapeutics is a highly innovative company striving to redefine the cancer treatment landscape with potential best-in-class therapies.

OUR GOAL IS TO TRANSFORM THE LIVES OF CANCER PATIENTS
INNOVATIVE CANCER THERAPIES DIFFERENTIATED BY DESIGN
We are advancing a novel class of cancer biotherapeutics designed to enhance the body’s immune response to cancer.
These conditionally activated proinflammatory immune modulators, called INDUKINE™ molecules, are systemically administered in an inactive form and are selectively activated to deliver full biological potency of cytokines upon entering the tumor microenvironment.
Our team of experienced scientists invented our proprietary PREDATOR™ protein engineering technology to design and engineer the future of immuno-oncology biotherapeutics for patients.
What’s in a name?
The company name is a powerful analogy to our scientific approach. A werewolf is a creature that goes unnoticed in day-to-day life but transforms into a dangerous predator under specific conditions. That is exactly what the medicines that we are developing do.
Our molecules are delivered systemically and remain inactive in the body as they are drawn to the tumor microenvironment, at which point they stimulate a powerful immune response and unleash an attack on cancer cells.
