About

We are Elicio

We harness the natural power of the lymph nodes to generate enhanced immune responses against tumors. Our science is defining the future of immunotherapy, with the goal of giving patients who are battling cancer their best possible outcome.

We’re committed to engineering lymph node–targeted immunomodulators, adjuvants, and vaccines for an array of aggressive cancers.

Championing a new era of cancer immunotherapy

We are an exceptional team of leaders dedicated to creating profound and enduring change in immuno-oncology.

With expertise in materials science, immunology, and oncology, we plan to forge a new path forward for cancer treatment by utilizing such expertise to drive our mission to amplify the potential of immunotherapies, empowering patients to fight cancer with full force.
