Janux Therapeutics focuses on developing a novel class of T cell engagers (TCEs), and its product candidates designed to target clinically validated drug targets. The company's TCE therapeutics have displayed potent anti-tumor activity in hematological cancers, developed to treat solid tumors and faced challenges due to the limitations of prior technologies, namely (I) overactivation of the immune system leading to cytokine release syndrome, (II) on-target, healthy tissue toxicities, and (III) poor pharmacokinetics leading to short half-life. Janux is also developing pipelines with programs targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2). The company plans to support the advancement of its pipeline T cell engager immunotherapies, including a PSMA-TRACTr, EGFR-TRACTr, and TROP2-TRACTr, into initial proof of concept clinical trials.
