List of Immuno-Oncology Companies in Switzerland - 6

A start up based in Switzerland that develops biologics to modulate the functions of cytokines and provide substantial therapeutic benefits to cancer patients.

Bright Peak are developing a portfolio of first-in-class and best-in-class cytokines with optimized biological properties for the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases. Through a variety of proprietary technology platforms, Bright Peak is uniquely abled to conjugate its cytokines as payloads to antibodies, creating bespoke, novel and proprietary “Bright Peak Immunocytokines”, and to other cytokines as “duokines”. The Bright Peak Immunocytokines allow tissue- and cell-specific targeting of the cytokine payload with the added potential for significantly enhanced efficacy. One of the many advantages of our approach is its "off-the-shelf" feature. Using a pioneering site-specific ADC-like chemical conjugation technology, any therapeutic antibody at any stage of development can be conjugated with Bright Peak’s cytokine payloads of choice, eliminating the current complexities of antibody engineering and cell line development. Bright Peak’s team works with a passion for innovation and bold science. We are an international research-driven organization dedicated to discovering and developing cutting edge therapies that will make a difference in the lives of patients. We aim to create a vibrant and international corporate culture and are currently hiring in our Basel, Switzerland and Southern California locations.

ImmunOs Therapeutics AG is developing the next generation of immunotherapies that have a role in the innate immune system for cancer and autoimmune diseases. The company is developing therapies that not only have direct anti-tumor effects but also remodel the tumor microenvironment to enhance the efficacy of existing immunotherapies. This portfolio of next generation, novel immunomodulatory proteins target diverse and key immunoregulatory receptors. Our lead program iosH2, now advancing to Phase 1 studies, is a multi-functional fusion protein that blocks specific LILRB (leukocyte immunoglobulin-like) receptors and thereby activates anti-tumor responses in multiple cancers with monotherapy and in combination with checkpoint inhibitors (CTLA-4, PD-1, PD-L1, CD47) and costimulatory agonists (e.g. 4-1BB).

Molecular Partners AG operates as a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company. It is developing Abicipar, a DARPin therapeutic candidate, which is in Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration, as well as for diabetic macular edema; and MP0250 that binds and inhibit vascular endothelial growth factor and hepatocyte growth factor pathways, which restores clinical sensitivity to various standard-of-care therapies in multiple myeloma. The company is also developing MP0274 that is in Phase I clinical trials for HER2-positive solid tumors; MP0310, which is in Phase I clinical trials for immuno-oncology; MPO317, a tumor-localized immune agonist that activates immune cells in the tumor; and Peptide-MHC, a tumor-localized immune-cell agonist to attack tumors. It has strategic partnerships with Allergan, Inc. and Amgen SA; and collaboration with AGC Biologics to develop anti-COVID-19 DARPin program. Molecular Partners AG was founded in 2004 and is headquartered in Schlieren, Switzerland.

Numab Therapeutics is an oncology-focused biopharmaceutical company based in the Zurich-area, Switzerland. At Numab, we are writing the next chapter in cancer immunotherapy by creating multi-specific antibodies that enable the pursuit of novel therapeutic strategies. With our proprietary MATCH™ technology platform we are fueling a new wave of multi-specific drug candidates engineered with versatility and developability in mind. Our lead product was designed to balance potent anti-tumor immunity with a desirable safety profile by targeting 4-1BB, PD-L1 and Human Serum Albumin simultaneously. We believe meeting the highest quality standards in every step of the drug design process matters and will result in better patient outcomes.

True precision medicine through single-cell science. Scailyte, a pioneer in AI-driven biomarker discovery from single-cell omics data, has leveraged its proprietary AI platform, ScaiVision, to analyze over 60 million single-cell profiles. The company's extensive network of clinical partners and access to unique patient cohorts in oncology and auto-immunity have led to the development of multiple patent-pending biomarker signatures. Headquartered in Basel, Switzerland, Scailyte collaborates with clinical-stage biotech and pharma companies worldwide, enabling biomarker-driven drug development and paving the way for precision medicine to become a reality.
