Marker Therapeutics Inc (MRKR) Kazanmak

Marker Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company, which engages in the development and commercialization of novel cell-based immunotherapies and peptide-based vaccines for the treatment of hematological malignancies and solid tumor indications. The company is headquartered in Houston, Texas and currently employs 5 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2016-11-08. The Company’s multi antigen recognizing (MAR)-T cell technology is based on the selective expansion of non-engineered, tumor-specific T cells that recognize tumor associated antigens, which are tumor targets, and kill tumor cells expressing those targets. These T cells are designed to recognize multiple tumor targets to produce broad-spectrum anti-tumor activity. The company is developing two product candidates, including an Autologous MAR-T cell product for the treatment of lymphoma and pancreatic cancer (MT-601) and an Off-the-Shelf (OTS) product in various indications (MT-401-OTS). The company has developed MT-601 to recognize multiple target antigens expressed by the tumor, thereby limiting tumor adaptation by negative antigen selection or downregulation.
