Minimize Uncertainty

ABA03

PD-1 / CTLA-4 BsAb

  • Ipilimumab and Tremelimumab validate anti-CTLA4 development in solid tumors
  • Robust Overall Survival across tumor types limited by the severe immune related Adverse Events (irAE) of legacy approaches
  • Novel insights demonstrate the feasibility of delivering anti-CTLA4 efficacy without the toxicity

Abalytics Oncology next generation antibody-based pMHC targeted therapies aim to distinguish cancer from self

The information age has unlocked new insights into where cancer appears that we can target

Abalytics computational design offers advantages over existing TCR  and TCR mimetic approaches

Modular next-generation antibody-based formats offer validated options to optimize safety, efficacy, and developability
