TransCode's Mission
TransCode's lofty goal is delivering a cancer-free future for all cancer patients. Our core belief is that cancer can be overcome through the intelligent design and efficient delivery of targeted therapeutics. Our lead therapeutic candidate, TTX-MC138, targets microRNA-10b, or miRNA-10b, considered the master regulator of metastatic cell viability in a range of cancers, including breast, pancreatic, ovarian, colon cancer, glioblastomas, and several others.
Until now, success with targeting genetic markers that are the primary drivers of cancer onset, progression and recurrence has been hampered by the challenge of delivery – the ability to engage these known targets in the cells and tissues of interest while minimizing off-target effects in other tissues. TransCode believes it has overcome this barrier, opening the door to a broad array of cancer therapies -- a disease with the highest unmet need that affects everyone. It is through the design and optimization of this technology that TransCode has devised an elegant solution -- TTX -- a proprietary delivery platform for the transport of targeted therapeutics to cancer cells. With our world class team and know how, TransCode has a rapidly expanding platform of drug candidates designed to target a variety of tumor indications with the goal of long-term treatment survival.
