Amorfix and Epitomics enter into agreement to develop novel monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of cancers
"Targeting misfolded proteins on cancer cells is a novel approach to developing treatments for cancers. The ProMIS(TM) technology enables the identification of DSEs likely present on cancer cells and should generate proprietary mAbs with greater selectivity and safety" said Dr. Robert Gundel, Vice President of Research and Development at Amorfix. "In addition, Amorfix's vast expertise in diagnostics puts us in a great position to develop companion diagnostics for patient selection and monitoring of clinical efficacy. We are very pleased to be collaborating with Epitomics, a company with a proven track record of success in developing clinical-grade antibodies."
