About BiVictriX Therapeutics plc
BiVictriX is a UK-based drug discovery and development company which is focused on leveraging clinical experience to develop a class of highly selective, next generation cancer therapeutics which exhibit superior potency, whilst eliminating treatment-related toxicities.
The Company utilises a first-in-class approach to generate a proprietary pipeline of Bi-Cygni® therapeutics which are designed to selectively target antigen co-expression fingerprints, or "twin antigens", on tumour cells, which are largely absent from healthy cells. Whereas this concept has been validated in a clinical diagnostic setting to support the diagnosis and monitoring of haematological cancers, it has not yet been widely used in a therapeutic setting.
BiVictriX has identified a diverse panel of novel cancer-specific "twin antigens", across a broad range of cancer indications including Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, Acute Myeloid Leukaemia and Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm. The Company is using these novel "twin-antigens" to develop more effective and safer therapeutics to target cancers that are expected to constitute orphan indications and currently constitute areas of high unmet medical need.
