Event Summary

VERAXA Biotech AG announced new in vitro proof-of-concept data validating its novel BiTAC-ADC technology platform, designed for more precise and targeted cancer therapies. The BiTAC-ADC strategy uses two complementary precursors delivered by separate antibodies to enable tumor-restricted activation of therapeutic effects, aiming to reduce off-tumor toxicity. In studies, BiTAC-ADCs demonstrated dose-dependent cytotoxicity in 3D tumor cell spheroids and discriminated between breast cancer and healthy cells. VERAXA Biotech AG will attend the BIO International Convention to discuss partnering opportunities for its BiTAC-ADC and BiTAC-TCE platforms. This follows the company's recent listing on Nasdaq-100 and previous presentation of BiTAC-TCE data at the AACR Annual Meeting.
