ONCODESIGN PRECISION MEDICINE

About the company

OPM’s innovative technologies are:

– OncoSNIPER for the selection of therapeutic targets using artificial intelligence

–Nanocyclix® for the design and selection of macrocyclic small molecule kinase inhibitors and

– Promethe for the design and selection of radiolabeled biological molecules for systemic radiotherapy.

About the solution

From these technologies, OPM has built a portfolio of therapeutic products.

A first drug candidate based on the Nanocyclix® technology entered the clinical phase in 2022, in partnership with SERVIER (which exercised its option for an exclusive worldwide license on the program) to treat Parkinson’s diseases. OPM-101 is OPM’s second candidate to enter the clinic, in the treatment of chronic immuno-inflammatory diseases.

Finally, OPM is also collaborating with Servier to
discover new therapeutic targets for the treatment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma based on its OncoSNIPER technology.

In addition, OPM is seeking a partner for Florepizol, a radiotracer specific for the mutated EGFR target, which has successfully completed Phase I. Finally, OPM has a significant portfolio of early-stage projects with Nanocyclix® and Promethe in oncology.

With this portfolio of molecules and diversified therapeutic targets, OPM’s mission is to discover effective therapies to treat resistant and advanced cancers. Based in Dijon, at the heart of the university and hospital cluster, OPM has 25 employees.

About the company

Abcely is a health biotechnology start-up specializing in the development of a completely new class of therapeutic molecules, orally-active class A immunoglobulins. These molecules have a tropism of distribution and action in all the mucous membranes of the body. (digestive, respiratory, urogenital tract and associated glandular systems such as the breast or prostate).
The drug candidate developed by Abcely, ABC-101, is the first class A, orally active monoclonal antibody directed against a tumor marker that is extremely well validated in oncology: CEA (Carcino-Embryo Antigen). CEA was chosen as a target because many digestive and mucosal cancers (lungs, urogenital tract and associated glands) overexpress this marker during cancerous transformation.
Abcely is also involved in the R&D of IgA applied to the field of endometriosis treatment, a very disabling pathology affecting approximately 10% of women.

About the solution

Abcely’s mission is to develop new innovative medical and pharmaceutical technologies in the field of the treatment of mucosal cancers, thus offering patients in therapeutic impasse a new solution based on a brand-new concept of immunotherapy in cancerology. The unique concept developed by Abcely is based on the use of a new class of orally active therapeutic molecules (IgA). Abcely is involved in all phases of development, from the identification of compounds of biological origin as potential active ingredients to the demonstration of their activity in the human clinic. Abcely’ positioning in the competitive landscape is unique since no other orally-active IgA is being developed in oncology or any other indication.
