Immune Fx (IFx) Personalized Cancer Vaccines

Key Technology Benefits

  • Increases T-cell infiltration in treated and untreated lesions (abscopal effect)
  • Leads to production of IgM and IgG with epitope recognition to hundreds of new tumor-associated antigens
  • Gene signature associated with innate response in the injected lesions (CXCL13, LAG3, CXCL11, CXCL10, ICOS)
  • Gene signature associated with adaptive response in un-injected lesions (IL-12, HLA-DRB5, WNT4, CD3D, Arg I)
Our Technologies

Tumor Microenvironment Modulators

Key Technology Benefits

  • Blocks myeloid derived suppressor cell (MDSC) production of multiple immune suppressing soluble factors
  • Converts tumorigenic (tumor growth and spread) microenvironment to immunogenic (immune cell infiltration and attack)
  • Prevents immune cell exhaustion (T-cell, NK cell, CAR-T)
  • Overcomes resistance to checkpoint inhibitors
  • Increases safety and efficacy of immuno- and cellular-therapy
