Living Immunotherapies

Immunotherapies will revolutionize the future of cancer treatment.

We harness the power of living T cells to activate the body's own defenses against cancer. By developing breakthrough therapies, we aim to significantly improve patients' lives.

This is what we are passionate about.

Expression of PD1-41BB in TCR-Ts leads to improved repetitive killing capacity

Orange: tumor cells

Halo: TCR-T cells

  • TCR-Tcells expressing PD1-41BB - improved killing of PD-L1-positive tumor cells.
  • PD1-41BBovercomes the inhibitory signal delivered via the PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint pathway.

mediated by TCR-T cells is evident by the reduction of red-labelled cells. The arrows indicate addition of a new tumor cell spheroid simulating repeated exposure of TCR-T cells to tumor cells.

MDG1011 - TCR-Ts fighting blood cancer

Target antigen:

PRAME (Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma)

PRAME is a well-characterized tumor antigen, which is expressed in many hematological and solid tumor indications

The study:

Combined Phase I/II Study evaluating safety, feasibility and early signs of efficacy

Indications for the Phase I part:

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML)

Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)

Dosing of the 3rd dose cohort of the Phase I part expected in Q1 2021

Evaluation of partnerships for Phase II part

MDG1021 - The second clinical TCR-T candidate

HA-1-specific TCR inlicensed from Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) at the end of 2018

HA-1 belongs to a group of so-called 'minor histocompatibility antigens'

The approach allows the elimination of the patient's hematopoietic system, where leukemia and lymphoma cells are found

Safety and Feasibility already tested clinically in a Phase I trial in 5 patients

DC vaccine - Phase I/II trial in AML completed

20 patients suffering from acute myeloid leukemia receiving DC vaccine against Wilms Tumor-1(WT-1) and PRAME antigens for 2 years

Primary objectives: Safety and feasibility

Secondary objectives: Overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), control of minimal residual disease (MRD), time to progression (TTP), induction of immune responses
