Cugene is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing next-generation precision immunology and oncology medicines that harness specific immune cells to treat autoimmune disease and cancer.
Specificity Using precision molecular engineering, Cugene scientists leverage compelling pathways and create novel molecules with highly selective immune stimulatory capacities to promote immune tolerance
Efficacy Novel molecules are designed with superior pharmacokinetics, desired potency, and target cell specificity to augment self tolerance and restore immune homeostasis
Safety New molecules are meticulously analyzed and selected to exclude those with off target effects and to minimize unwanted side effects
Synergy Molecules can function as versatile building blocks in connection with Cugene’s proprietary anti-inflammatory moieties to become backbone therapeutics for Autoimmune disease
Specificity Using molecular modeling, Cugene scientists engineer molecules that reinvigorate tumor infiltrated exhausted T cells with high selectivity and desired potency at targeted tumor sites
Efficacy Novel molecules are designed for robust and sustained tumor killing with long-lasting memory effects
Safety Molecules are designed with Cugene proprietary technology platforms and rigorously tested to select those that target only cancer cells while leaving healthy cells intact to provide the widest therapeutic margin
Synergy The combination of precision anti-cancer molecules with tumor microenvironment-targeting provides pronounced synergistic benefits
