Engineering precision immunity
Elicio Therapeutics is re-engineering the body’s immune response to defeat cancer and infectious diseases with potent lymph node targeted immunotherapies and vaccines. Elicio’s Amphiphile platform combines expertise in materials science and immunology to develop novel immunotherapies and vaccines, including cell therapy activators, immunomodulators, adjuvants and vaccines for an array of aggressive cancers and infectious diseases.
Lymph nodes:
where the immune response is orchestrated
Elicio has demonstrated preclinically that Amphiphiles target and concentrate an array of different immunogens in the lymph nodes, resulting in tumor or pathogen targeted immunity, including potent T cell and humoral responses. Elicio’s lead Amphiphile program for KRAS-driven cancers will enter initial patient studies in early 2021.
NEXT-GENERATION IMMUNO-ONCOLOGY PLATFORM
Our programs
Elicio’s core business is the development of therapeutic cancer vaccines. ELI-002, its lead clinical program, is designed to stimulate an immune response against the seven Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) mutations driving 25% of solid tumors. ELI-002 is currently being studied in AMPLIFY-201, a Phase 1 dose escalation study, and AMPLIFY-7P, a Phase 1/2 study.
