Lyell Immunopharma is developing a CAR-T cell therapy for colorectal cancer. The therapy targets tumors expressing the guanylate cyclase-C (GCC) protein receptor. GCC is expressed in more than 95% of colorectal cancer cases and in most cases of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Lyell's genetic reprogramming technologies aim to slow T-cell depletion and generate more potent T-cells with enhanced, sustained anti-tumor activity in the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment.

Funding: $185.2M
Arthrosi Therapeutics is a biotechnology company that focuses on drug discovery and development.
6
Funding: $75M
Neok is a spin-off of Korean biotech ABL, that paired its antibody skills with linker-payload technology to build a pipeline of ADCs. Neok was started with two ADC-candidates from ABL and plans to test them and deliver the first human data in 2027. The drugs target thoracic, gastrointestinal and gynecological cancers via ROR1, EGFR and MUC1 proteins. The expression of these proteins by some healthy cells makes on-target, off-tumor toxicity a concern for drugs that engage the receptor. But, in theory, Neok's bispecific design (which is fine-tuned for each target antigen pair) could improve safety. This dual-targeting strategy has the potential to target a wider range of tumors, overcome drug resistance.

Helex is revolutionizing genomic medicine and advances in treating genetic kidney diseases. It designed lipid nanoparticle technology for targeted drug delivery and an intelligent drug design platform that enables de-risked, scalable and affordable therapeutics. Therapeutic payloads are directed to specific organs and cells beyond the liver filter. The technology is said to minimize immune response and eliminate the risk of insertional mutagenesis linked with viral vectors. Also it has greater scalability than viral vectors due to their simpler production process.
