Elicio Therapeutics Receives $2.8 Million Grant from the Gastro-Intestinal Research Foundation (GIRF) to Fund Research for Two Therapeutic Cancer Vaccines
“We are excited to receive the grant from GIRF and look forward to broadening our pipeline by developing ELI-007 and ELI-008 to target these key cancer mutations. p53 hotspot mutants and mutant BRAF are examples of public cancer neoantigens shared across many patients and tumor types with limited therapeutic options for providing durable therapeutic benefit,” said Peter DeMuth, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer at Elicio. “By targeting vaccine components to the lymph nodes, the AMP strategy is ideally suited to enhance tumor-specific immunity with the potential to eradicate tumors and promote durable patient responses.”
