About bexmarilimab
Bexmarilimab is Faron’s wholly owned, investigational immunotherapy designed
to overcome resistance to existing treatments and optimize clinical outcomes,
by targeting myeloid cell function and igniting the immune
system. Bexmarilimab binds to Clever-1, an immunosuppressive receptor found on
macrophages leading to tumor growth and metastases (i.e. helps cancer evade
the immune system). By targeting the Clever-1 receptor on
macrophages, bexmarilimab alters the tumor microenvironment, reprogramming
macrophages from an immunosuppressive (M2) state to an immunostimulatory (M1)
one, upregulating interferon production and priming the immune system to
attack tumors and sensitizing cancer cells to standard of care.
