VERAXA Biotech (NASDAQ: VRXA) has advanced its VXA-222 bispecific antibody-drug conjugate (“ADC”) program beyond the initial discovery phase following the completion of its collaboration with OmniAb, with the company now planning to engineer the final candidate using its antibody-engineering, linker and conjugation technologies and conduct in vitro and in vivo preclinical studies. VXA-222 employs an “AND-gate” design intended to recognize two tumor-associated antigens simultaneously, potentially increasing selectivity for cancer cells, while VERAXA continues developing a broader oncology pipeline spanning ADCs, T-cell engagers and other engineered antibody formats. The company has also filed its first patents covering its BiTAC-TCE and BiTAC-ADC platforms and related payload, click-chemistry and conjugation technologies, adding to an intellectual-property portfolio that includes more than 50 granted patents across 26 families in 14 countries.
