About DNX Biopharmaceuticals, Inc.
Founded in 2014 and headquartered in San Diego, California, USA, DNX is a biopharmaceutical company developing non-immunogenic, long-acting biologic therapies for the treatment of patients with life-long diseases linked to inflammation, autoinflammation and oncology. As an awardee of the Lung Cancer Innovation QuickFire Challenge, DNX received residency at Johnson & Johnson Innovation - JLABS @ Shanghai. At JLABS Shanghai, DNX will pursue an ongoing R&D effort that leverages its intrinsically disordered protein technologies designed to explore the tumor microenvironment, leading to the identification of novel pathways that can be targeted with molecules to substantially influence "anti-tumoral" therapeutic responses. Ongoing nonclinical efforts have identified several novel candidates that may act as "Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors" alone or in combination with existing standard of care anti-PD-1 and CTLA-4 therapies to reverse CD8+ T cell functions, all with the aim of improving clinical outcomes across the vast range of cancer conditions.
