About Scancell
Scancell (LSE:SCLP) develops immunotherapies for a Cancer-free future by enhancing long-lasting tumour specific immunity. As a clinical stage biotechnology company with deep roots in cancer immunology and translational research, Scancell develops tumour targeted off-the-shelf vaccines, with highly favourable safety and durable systemic immune responses. Scancell's lead product, iSCIB1+, a DNA vaccine, is currently showing strong promise on top of checkpoint therapies in a multi-arm phase 2 study in first-line melanoma. The second vaccine, Modi-1, is being investigated in a phase 2 study in a broad range of solid tumours. Scancell is also developing a pipeline of high affinity antibodies targeting tumour specific glycans using its proprietary platforms. Two of these antibodies are now being developed in major biopharma partnerships, and a further two antibodies targeting lung and epithelial cancers are actively being developed in-house.
