Nona Biosciences, a cutting-edge technology innovator and wholly-owned subsidiary of HBM Holdings Limited, has entered into an exciting collaboration with Mythic Therapeutics, a biotechnology company that is developing revolutionary antibody-drug conjugate-based (ADC) therapies for cancer treatments. Together, the two companies are combining their expertise to bring the concept of “Idea to IND” (“I to ITM”) to life, creating a comprehensive solution for cancer patients around the world.
Nona Biosciences and Mythic Therapeutics have joined forces to use Nona’s proprietary fully human heavy chain only antibody (HCAb) transgenic mice platform and antibody generation services as the basis for Mythic Therapeutics’ innovative FateControl™ antibody engineering approach to create next-generation ADCs for the treatment of a range of cancers. By combining Nona’s cutting-edge technology with Mythic’s groundbreaking approach, they hope to revolutionize the field of cancer treatments.
We are thrilled to partner with Mythic Therapeutics to drive the next-generation of biotherapeutic innovation! Our expertise in ADC drug discovery, combined with our tried and tested therapeutic antibody platforms, have been endorsed by a multitude of partners worldwide. Mythic Therapeutics boasts an impressive foundation and top-tier team in the field of oncology, making them a perfect fit to further progress target discovery, with the ultimate goal of providing successful treatments for unmet medical needs. Jingsong Wang MD, PhD, Chairman of Nona Biosciences, expressed his excitement over the collaboration.
About HCAb
HCAb’s revolutionary technology is revolutionizing the antibody world, creating novel “heavy chain only” antibodies that are about half the size of a typical IgG. These antibodies boast IgG-like PK properties and Fc-domain functions, while avoiding the issue of light chain mispairing and heterodimerization. This new platform opens up the potential for a range of novel therapeutic and diagnostic products, including single-domain antibodies, bi- and multi-specifics, antibody-drug conjugates, CAR-Ts, and VH domain-derived products. It’s clear that HCAb’s technology has the potential to revolutionize the field of antibody development.
