Addressing the hallmarks of cancer lethality with
first-in-class ND-ADCs

Angiex is developing first-in-class Nuclear-Delivered Antibody-Drug Conjugates™ (ND-ADCs) to address the hallmarks of cancer lethality


Vision

No one should die of cancer


Mission

Exploiting novel biology to gain revolutionary power over cancer


Our Science

Our novel and first-in-class Nuclear- Delivered Antibody-Drug Conjugates™ (ND-ADCs) target an intracellular transporter called TM4SF1. TM4SF1 is highly expressed in the tumor micro- environment and carries proteins – and our antibodies – from the cell surface to the nucleus.

TM4SF1 has high expression across all solid tumors with a correlation to mortality. Expression is in both tumor cells and tumor vascular endothelium. Selective delivery to these cells may result in high therapeutic margin with little delivery to health tissue.

Exploiting the biology of TM4SF1 and the nuclear delivery of payloads may unlock exceptional efficacy through novel and potent mechanisms of action:

  • Antiangiogenesis (regression of angiogenic tumor vasculature)
  • Tumor cell killing (especially invasive and metastic tumor cells)
  • Immune activation

Angiex’s lead ND-ADC, AGX101, will soon be heading to the clinic, and a pipeline of additional ND-ADCs is in discovery-stage development.
