Our Science

Oncology

Cancer cells cunningly evade the immune system using many different mechanisms. We believe that only when the full potential of the human immune system is unleashed, tumors can be effectively treated or even cured. One of our therapeutic approaches is to boost both the innate and adaptive immunity with monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and bispecific antibodies. We are also interrogating non-immune pathways that may play key roles in the tumor microenvironment for their potential in developing novel therapeutics.
