Development of Innovative Immune-therapeutics based on Two Core Technologies of Genexine

While cancer is among the leading causes of death worldwide, the cancer treatment is improving, saving lives and extending survival for many people, driven by rapidly evolving advances in immunotherapy. Immunotherapy marks an entirely different way of treating cancer by targeting the immune system, not the tumor itself, resulting in a significant change of the treatment paradigm in many of the cancer types.Genexine is an innovative biotechnology company focused on developing Immuno-therapeutics by utilizing two proprietary core technologies for therapeutic vaccines and immunofusion proteins - DNA therapeutic vaccine and hyFc® based long-acting fusion protein technology. Among the pipelines, GX-I7, a long-acting interleukin-7 that increases T-cell counts to be used as a treatment for lymphopenia and cancer, and GX-188E, a DNA therapeutic vaccine targeting cervical cancer associated with human papilloma virus (HPV) type 16 and 18 are to be introduced in this talk. GX-I7 is currently under clinical trial development in various cancer treatment. GX-188E is also under the phase 2 clinical study with a combination therapy of pembrolizumab in patients with HPV 16- and 18- positive advanced cervical cancer who failed the first or later line of therapy.
