About CytomX Therapeutics
CytomX Therapeutics is a clinical-stage oncology-focused biopharmaceutical company pioneering a novel class of investigational antibody therapeutics based on its Probody therapeutic technology platform. Probody therapeutics are designed to exploit unique conditions of the tumor microenvironment to more effectively localize antibody binding and activity while limiting activity in healthy tissues. CytomX has four clinical-stage programs from a pipeline that includes cancer immunotherapies against clinically-validated targets, such as CX-072, a PD-L1-targeting Probody therapeutic wholly-owned by CytomX, BMS-986249, a CTLA-4-targeting Probody therapeutic partnered with Bristol-Myers Squibb and CX-188, a PD-1-targeting Probody therapeutic wholly-owned by CytomX. CytomX is also developing first-in-class Probody drug conjugates against high potential targets, including CX-2009, a CD166-targeting Probody drug conjugate wholly-owned by CytomX, and CX-2029, a CD71-targeting Probody drug conjugate partnered with AbbVie, which are considered to be inaccessible to conventional antibody drug conjugates due to their presence on healthy tissue. In addition, CytomX has an EGFR-CD3 T-cell bispecific partnered with Amgen in lead optimization stage as well as additional Probody drug conjugates, immune-oncology and T-Cell engaging bispecific Probody programs in early development.
