ABOUT ONCOTOPE
- Cancer is a global health emergency. Unfortunately, virtually all treatments that kill cancer cells adversely affect normal healthy cells, causing debilitating side effects.
- Targeted immunotherapy is the leading approach for combating cancer. A key challenge has been to identify cancer-specific antigens that are suitable for antibody-based therapeutics.
- The market for cancer immunotherapies is substantial, exemplified by recent sales of two different antibodies targeting a single antigen, TROP-2, on Triple Negative Breast Cancer, which reached a staggering $27 billion.
- Our cutting-edge Oncotope Platform has revolutionized the discovery of cancer-specific antigens. Remarkably, it can identify multiple new antigens on any cancer type in a matter of months.

ONCOTOPE PLATFORM PUBLICATION & PRESENTATION
An abstract embodying our novel method and research results was published by the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) on May 26, 2022. The results of our study were presented at the ASCO Annual Meeting in June 2022 with over 40,000 attendees.
Highlights of the abstract include:
- Antibodies generated against a specific type of cancer can kill those cancer cells without harming normal cells from the same tissue type and the same person.
- These antibodies against one person’s cancer can kill the same cancer type from a different person.
- These antibodies surprisingly can also kill cancer cells of a different type than the kind they were derived against.
- Antibodies generated against one person’s cancer do not harm normal cells from a different person.
- The platform can generate antibodies against a variety of cancers.
