Avacta Therapeutics General Information

Description

Avacta Group PLC is a clinical-stage life sciences company expanding the reach of potent cancer therapies with the pre-CISION platform. pre-CISION is a proprietary warhead delivery system based on a tumor-specific protease (fibroblast activation protein or FAP) that is designed to concentrate potent warheads in the tumor microenvironment while sparing normal tissues. The company's pipeline consists of pre-CISION peptide drug conjugates (PDC) or Affimer drug conjugates (AffDC) that leverage the tumor-specific release mechanism, providing benefits over traditional antibody drug conjugates. The firm has one reportable segment, Therapeutics, which is engaged in the development of novel cancer therapies harnessing its proprietary technology. Geographically, it derives revenue from South Korea.
