About A2 Biotherapeutics

A2 Biotherapeutics is a biotech company dedicated to producing a new kind of cell therapy to treat cancers. Our scientists have invented the TmodTM cell therapy platform to tackle the fundamental challenge in solid tumor treatment—the ability of cancer medicines to distinguish between tumor and normal cells. The TmodTM mechanism utilizes two receptors to exploit common, specific gene losses in tumors which demarcate the tumor from normal cells.

A2 Biotherapeutics is strongly driven by our commitment to highest quality science, passion to revolutionize treatment for solid tumors, and urgency to bring cell therapies to cancer patients. The combination of talented, hard-working people with the robust TmodTM platform has fueled the advancement of our pipeline and publications in peer-reviewed scientific papers in the cell therapy field.
