About Avacta - avacta.com (https://avacta.com/)
Avacta Therapeutics is a clinical-stage life sciences company expanding the
reach of highly potent cancer therapies with the pre|CISION(®) platform.
pre|CISION(®) is a proprietary warhead delivery system based on a
tumor-specific protease (fibroblast activation protein or FAP) that is
designed to concentrate highly potent warheads in the tumor microenvironment
while sparing normal tissues. Our innovative pipeline consists of
pre|CISION(®) peptide drug conjugates (PDC) or Affimer(®) drug conjugates
(AffDC) that leverage the tumor-specific release mechanism, providing unique
benefits over traditional antibody drug conjugates.
About the pre|CISION® Platform
The pre|CISION® platform comprises an anticancer payload conjugated to a
proprietary peptide that is a highly specific substrate for fibroblast
activation protein (FAP) which is upregulated in most solid tumors compared
with healthy tissues. The pre|CISION® platform harnesses this tumor specific
protease to cleave pre|CISION® peptide drug conjugates and pre|CISION®
antibody/Affimer® drug conjugates in the tumor microenvironment, thus
releasing active payload in the tumor and reducing systemic exposure and
toxicity, allowing dosing to be optimized to deliver the best outcomes for
patients.
