🎉 Big news! We're thrilled to announce 6 presentations across two leading scientific conferences next week. World ADC Event Series (San Diego): 👉 Two speaker sessions, featuring our CEO & Founder, José M. Mejía Oneto, and VP of Research Travis Biechele discussing approaches to overcome off-target toxicities associated with ADCs and sharing data from Shasqi’s novel Click Activated Protodrugs Against Cancer (CAPAC®) technology. 👉 Two posters sharing more details on CAPAC and data from our pipeline assets. 39th Annual Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Meeting: 👉 Two groundbreaking posters including first-in-human data from our Phase 1/2a sarcoma trial and exciting preclinical results demonstrating immune activation associated with MMAE administration via CAPAC. We’re excited to continue existing conversations and start new ones around partnering our CAPAC pre-targeting technology. Interested? Reach out to Mukul Agarwal, drop a comment below or stop by at either conference! Details 👇 https://lnkd.in/gkh8RAw9 #WorldADC #SITC2024 #SITC24 #biotech #innovation

Targeting cancer with click chemistry
About us
Shasqi is a biotech company whose mission is to revolutionize cancer treatment with click chemistry, a 2022 Nobel Prize winning technology. Our unique CAPAC® (Click Activated Protodrugs Against Cancer) platform uses click chemistry to target high doses of cancer drugs directly to the site of the tumor while minimizing toxicity to healthy cells, potentially improving the therapeutic index. Shasqi has developed an expansive and diverse library of antibody-mediated tumor-targeting agents and cancer therapeutic payloads. These are decoupled from each other and reunited at the site of the tumor via a click chemistry reaction. We are the first company to use click chemistry in humans.

As you may have seen, José M. Mejía Oneto has been at the EORTC - European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer- National Cancer Institute (NCI)- American Association for Cancer Research Symposium on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics this week. Great conversations and questions, hearing what is coming next for targeted therapies and what are the critical challenges in the field from the best in the field are more energizing than coffee! Some highlights: Yesterday’s morning session: “Fine-tuning the use of ADC’s to treat cancer” featuring Paolo Tarantino and Raffaele Colombo who gave a powerful presentation (congrats on the publication of your recent, comprehensive review in Cancer Research). The session also featured key insights from Prof Barbara Pistilli and Prof Giuseppe Curigliani on the interaction between IO therapies and ADCs. The Chemistry in Cancer research Town Hall which included a fascinating presentation by Matthew Levengood from Pfizer on potential improvements to MMAE payloads. We want to thank the organizing committee and the chairs for selecting our work showcasing “in vivo click chemistry to enable pre targeting for ADCs and targeted radiopharmaceuticals” for a late breaking abstract (P521 for those still in Barcelona). We've enjoyed some great questions and conversations. You can find the poster at the link 👉 https://lnkd.in/ggJkQx9C Next on our list: World ADC Event Series in San Diego as well as the 39th Annual Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) meeting coming up in November. We look forward to seeing you there!
