Infinitopes Secures £12.8M Seed Funding to Advance Cancer Vaccine Development
Infinitopes, an Oxford-based cancer biotech company, has raised £12.8M in Seed funding led by Octopus Ventures
The funding will be used to accelerate the installation of LC-MS/MS mass spectrometer equipment, enhancing their proprietary tumor antigen discovery and computational immunobiology/AI/machine learning techniques to identify and rank the best target combinations to treat five more cancers
Infinitopes combines precision antigen discovery with high efficiency vector delivery systems to develop immunologically durable vaccines for multiple solid tumour indications
Their lead vaccine candidate, ITOP1, is expected to begin phase I/IIa trials in Q3 2024.
