7Month23Day, committed to the development of universal immunotherapy for solid tumorsDispatch BioAnnounced official debut.

Solid tumors account for approximately90%。Due to the two major challenges of lacking tumor-specific targets and the presence of an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, immunotherapy has been difficult to effectively treat solid tumors.

DispatchCompanyfirst-in-classOfFlarePlatformSpecifically designed to overcome these two major challenges, its mechanism is to deliver a novel, universal antigen (referred to asFlare) viral vector, this antigen can precisely target solid tumor cells while disrupting the immunosuppressive microenvironment of the tumor. Once in place,FlareAntigens act like a beacon, guiding the immune system to locate and eliminate cancer cells without harming healthy tissue.

Specifically,FlareThe workflow of the platform is divided into three steps:

Step 1: DeliveryFlareAntigen.By selectively targeting tumors through cancer cell-specific viral vectors and usingFlareAntigen-labeled tumors. Viral vectors also enable the immune system to more easily access the tumor microenvironment.

Step Two: InvokeCAR-TCell.As one of the methods,DispatchUse the next generationCAR-TCells, clearance markedFlarecancer cells. The next generationCAR-TUsebest-in-classTechnological development has shown outstanding performance in both efficacy and durability.

Step Three: Trigger a Chain Reaction.When cancer cells areCAR-TWhen cells are destroyed, thousands of carriersFlareThe viral particles are released into the surrounding tumor tissue. More nearby cancer cells are marked, and this powerful chain reaction promotes the clearance of tumor cells at multiple sites.

It is worth mentioning that,FlareThe platform is applicable to various types of tumors.

DispatchFounded in2022Year, with the vision of helping to create a world where all cancer patients can be cured. The company's founding team is impressive, includingCAR-TLeading experts in the fieldCarl JuneProfessor、Memorial Sloan KetteringDirector of Immunology Oncology at the Cancer CenterAndy MinnDr. etc.
