Our Science

TRANSFORMING CANCER TREATMENT THROUGH INNOVATION

Our proprietary PREDATOR™ protein engineering technology integrates specialized protein design elements to enhance activity, stability and tumor selectivity within a single molecule. These are called INDUKINE™ molecules.

Cytokine domain
Inactivation domain
Protease-cleavable linkers

INDUKINE™ molecules are systemically administered in an inactive form and, upon entering the tumor microenvironment, are selectively activated to deliver the full biological potency of cytokines and recruit a powerful anti-tumor immune response. Therefore, INDUKINE™ molecules deliver maximum therapeutic potential while minimizing unwanted off-target effects in non-tumor tissues.

How PREDATOR maximizes therapeutic potential while minimizing unwanted off-target effects

Predator™ Protein Engineering

Our proprietary PREDATOR™ protein engineering technology allows us to achieve immune targeting and conditional activation in a new way, enabling the development of novel therapies designed to:
1
HP-icon-1-static-blue
Exhibit superior tolerability and drug-like properties when administered systemically as inactive pro-drugs
2
HP-icon-2-static-blue
Undergo transformation to the active state only upon reaching the tumor microenvironment
3
HP-icon-3-static-blue
Deliver full biological potency of antitumor immune modulation for maximum therapeutic potential
