Tharimmune Announces Option Agreement for Key Technologies for Generating HER2/HER3 Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADCs) - Seite 2

"This option agreement allows us to further enhance our internal early-stage pipeline and develop multi-specific novel antibodies against an important tumor target," said Randy Milby, Chief Executive Officer of Tharimmune. "We are excited to continue the foundational work conducted by the collaborative effort of researchers at Washington University, a global leader in medicine and biomedical research."

The Company also intends to incorporate the work completed at Washington University to continue advancing internal novel antibodies derived in bovine animals or cows and resulting from ultra-long complementary determining region 3 (CDR3) domains. These potentially enable access to epitopes that had previously been hidden or highly inaccessible in traditional antibody development. With a much smaller size compared to traditional antibodies, combined with structural diversity, Knobs can bind to conformational, linear or discontinuous epitopes in "undruggable" areas of validated targets. This conceivable "multi-specific" capacity of Knobs^, are the basis of developing Tharimmune's early-stage pipeline including ADCs and may more efficiently target multiple cell surface portions compared to known or existing biologics.
