We’re excited to announce a licensing deal with the Development Center for Biotechnology (DCB) to bring Taiwan’s first CD73 immunotherapy, DCBPR2201, into the next phase of development! This first-in-class antibody aims to transform “cold tumors” into “hot tumors,” potentially improving treatment for cancers like NSCLC, pancreatic cancer, and TNBC. We look forward to advancing it through clinical development to bring new hope to patients worldwide.
🚀 Taiwan’s First CD73 Immunotherapy Moves Toward the Global Stage! https://reurl.cc/ax4YWD 生技中心 (DCB) has officially licensed its first-in-class anti-CD73 antibody drug candidate, DCBPR2201, exclusively to PharmaEssentia Corp. (TWSE: 6446). This groundbreaking immunotherapy targets high-CD73 expression cancers like NSCLC, pancreatic cancer, and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). 🧬 Unlike existing treatments, DCBPR2201 is designed to convert “cold tumors” into “hot tumors,” enhancing immune response by reversing the tumor’s immunosuppressive microenvironment. With no approved CD73 therapies currently on the market, this collaboration positions Taiwan at the forefront of next-gen oncology innovation. 💡 Developed through a rigorous year-long due diligence process, PharmaEssentia plans to advance DCBPR2201 through clinical development—potentially in combination with checkpoint inhibitors—to bring new hope to patients battling hard-to-treat cancers. 🔬 Key Highlights: 🎯First-in-class CD73 immune checkpoint therapy, no global equivalents on the market. 🎯Aims to convert “cold tumors” into “hot tumors” by reversing immunosuppressive tumor environments. 🎯DCBPR2201 demonstrated strong long-acting CD73 inhibition and enhanced T-cell activation in preclinical models. 🎯High tumor-targeting precision and favorable safety profiles observed in animal studies. 🎯Co-development with checkpoint inhibitors expected for future clinical strategy.
