We are changing the status quo of delivery of various drug payloads to significantly enhance their efficacy. We have spent over 15 years on this journey, perfecting our modular and scalable processes.
Our patent protected ACM Biolabs’ Tunable Platform (ATPTM) is a polymer/lipid hybrid, non-viral delivery technology that offers the flexibility to deliver multiple payloads including oligonucleotides, small molecules, proteins, and mRNA.
In our CEPI-funded mRNA rabies vaccine program, ATPTM nanoparticles keeps mRNA stable at 2-8°C in contrast to the current lipid nanoparticle-based delivery systems that require ultra-low cold storage. This critical improvement allows use of such vaccines in countries that struggle to access mRNA vaccines due to a lack of an established cold-chain infrastructure.
In our oncology program, ATPTM nanoparticles have been shown to fundamentally alter the mechanism of action of their CpG oligonucleotide cargo, enabling myeloid modulation through comprehensive TLR9 engagement in immunologically cold tumors. The anticipated efficacy enhancements are being borne out by early clinical readouts.
