BioInvent is a clinical-stage company that discovers and develops antibodies for cancer therapy. Based on extensive knowledge in immunology, cancer biology and antibody biology, BioInvent generates innovative immuno-oncology drug candidates.
Immuno-oncology drugs constitute one of the main medical breakthroughs of the 21st century. The first treatments have already greatly increased the survival time of patients, especially in blood-borne cancers and some well-served segments such as breast cancer. The market is expected to expand as more products in this category are approved. Antibody-based immunotherapies have the potential to be used in the treatment of virtually all kinds of cancer. BioInvent develops antibody-based immunotherapies primarily aimed at treating hematological cancer and solid tumors.
The Company’s validated, proprietary F.I.R.S.T™ technology platform identifies both targets and the antibodies that bind to them, generating many promising new drug candidates to fuel the Company's own clinical development pipeline and providing licensing and partnering opportunities. The Company generates revenues from research collaborations and license agreements with multiple top-tier pharmaceutical companies, as well as from producing antibodies for third parties in the Company’s fully integrated manufacturing unit.
