Reston, Virginia, United States IGM Biosciences, Inc. Full time

About IGM Biosciences, Inc.


IGM Biosciences, a clinical-stage biotechnology company, is dedicated to developing and delivering innovative medicines to treat patients with cancer and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Our pipeline of clinical and preclinical assets is based on the IgM antibody, which has 10 binding sites, compared to conventional IgG antibodies with only 2 binding sites. We have created unique IgM antibodies with high selectivity, affinity, and avidity that may redefine what is possible for therapeutic antibody medicines. Our proprietary IgM antibody technology platform is particularly well suited for developing T cell engagers and receptor cross-linking agonists. The Company also has an exclusive worldwide collaboration agreement with Sanofi to create, develop, manufacture, and commercialize IgM antibody agonists against oncology, immunology, and inflammation targets. For more information, please visit our website.


IgM Antibodies and Autoimmune and Inflammatory Diseases

Antibody treatments have revolutionized outcomes for patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. We are committed to exploring how our IgM antibody platform's unique structure and binding properties can improve outcomes for patients with these serious conditions.


IgM Antibodies and Oncology

The potential of our IgM antibodies drives our focus on oncology. Leveraging the power of avidity and the strong and durable binding of our IgM antibodies, we are developing new treatment options for cancer patients. Our initial efforts in this field are centered around the broad application of IgM antibodies to activate receptors, triggering the programmed death of cancer cells.
