developing novel drugs with potential safety and efficacy profiles that when combined with checkpoint inhibition have the potential to optimize clinical outcomes. Through its partnerships with Merck and Cancer Research Technology (the commercial arm of Cancer Research UK, London, UK), iOnctura has established a pipeline of preclinical molecules to advance towards the clinic in combination with immuno-oncology assets from Merck. iOnctura is supported by a world renowned scientific advisory board and, with its access to CRT’s drug discovery labs and network of academic collaborators, is well-positioned to rapidly establish novel combination therapies in the field of cancer immunology.
