We are a clinical-stage biologics company focused on discovering and developing a novel class of engineered precision biologics (EPBs) using our proprietary expanded genetic code technology platform that allows us to incorporate, in a site-specific manner, synthetic amino acids (SAAs) into proteins within living cells. We believe that our technology allows us to engineer a single optimized structure by designing the conjugation chemistries, selecting the precise number of amino acids and conjugation positions in the protein, and expanding the types of payloads that can be conjugated. Our precision engineering capabilities and the broad applicability of our expanded genetic code technology platform have the potential to enhance and enable the therapeutic functions of conventional biologics and bio-conjugates. Our SAA incorporation technology allows us to develop a wide array of product candidate modalities, such as antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), bispecific antibodies, PEGylated peptides, modified cytokines and immuno-stimulating antibody conjugates (ISACs). Our most advanced internal product candidate is ARX788, an anti-HER2 ADC, currently being investigated in multiple clinical trials for the treatment of breast cancer, gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer and other solid tumors, including an ongoing Phase 2/3 clinical trial for the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.
