Our Pipeline
TransCode Therapeutics has created a platform of therapeutic candidates with the objective of improving cancer patient outcomes.
Our lead therapeutic candidate, TTX-MC138, is focused on treating metastatic cancer, which has been shown to be responsible for the majority of all cancer deaths annually. Advancing a Pipeline of First-in-Class Therapeutic Candidates* TransCode signed an Exclusive Option Agreement with The General Hospital Corporation, d/b/a Massachusetts General Hospital, or MGH, for 64Cu-TTX-MC138. Under this Option, TransCode has the right to negotiate a license for these candidates with MGH. TransCode’s decision will depend on the results of preclinical studies it plans to conduct as shown above.
* Seeking Orphan designation status ** Received Orphan designation status from FDA Our other preclinical program includes a solid tumor program, TTX-siPDL1, an siRNA-based modulator of programmed death-ligand 1, or PD-L. TransCode also has three cancer agnostic programs, TTX-RIGA, an RNA- based agonist of the retinoic acid-inducible gene I, or RIG-I, targeting activation of innate immunity in the tumor microenvironment; TTX-CRISPR, a CRISPR/Cas9-based therapy platform for the repair or elimination of cancer-causing genes inside tumor cells; and TTX-mRNA, an mRNA-based platform for the development of cancer vaccines that activate cytotoxic immune responses against tumor cells.
Until now, targeting genetic markers that are the primary drivers of cancer onset, progression and recurrence have been locked behind the challenge of delivery – cytosolic delivery to engage these known targets. |
