Vaxiion Therapeutics, Inc. is a San Diego-based
biotechnology company dedicated to becoming the industry leader in targeted oncology
therapeutics. The company is continuing development of a closely related pair of proprietary first-in-class nanodelivery platforms offering
distinct competitive advantages for targeted delivery in cancer. Vaxiion’s targeted
nanodelivery platforms are based on genetically engineered, non-living bacterial
minicells that are capable of packaging, targeting, and delivering a wide array
of therapeutically relevant molecules (including protein toxins, small molecule
drugs, RNAi, plasmids, peptides, and imaging agents) directly to cancer cells. The key differentiating feature of Vaxiion’s
platforms versus most other targeted nanodelivery platforms or antibody-drug
conjugates in development is the unique ability to promote endosomal escape,
thereby resulting in better efficacy of the therapeutic payload.
