Problem
Many cancers remain difficult to treat effectively due to limitations in current therapeutic approaches. Traditional antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) may not always provide sufficient efficacy or may exhibit toxic side effects, highlighting the need for novel cancer-targeting strategies.
Solution
Myricx Bio is developing a new class of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) that target cancer cells by inhibiting N-myristoyltransferases (NMT). These novel payloads are designed to disrupt the NMT enzymes, which play a crucial role in cancer cell growth and survival. Myricx's proprietary ADCs have demonstrated significant preclinical efficacy and safety across multiple solid tumor-associated antigens and cancer cell types. This approach aims to provide a more targeted and effective cancer treatment option with improved outcomes.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes oncology researchers and pharmaceutical companies focused on developing innovative cancer therapies.
Features
- Novel ADC payloads based on NMT inhibition
- Demonstrated preclinical efficacy against various solid tumor-associated antigens
- Improved safety profile in preclinical studies
- Proprietary pipeline of new generation ADCs
