Marker Therapeutics, Inc. MRKR

We are a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company specializing in the development of novel T cell-based immunotherapies for the treatment of hematological malignancies and solid tumor indications. Harnessing millions of years of immunologic evolution, Marker's Multi Antigen Recognizing ("MAR")-T cell technology is designed to recognize and kill highly heterogeneous tumors without the need for genetic modifications. This approach selectively expands natural tumor-specific T cells from a patient's/donor's blood that are capable of recognizing a broad range of tumor associated antigens, or TAAs. Unlike other T cell therapies, MAR-T cells are able to recognize hundreds of different epitopes within up to six tumor-specific antigens to produce broad spectrum anti-tumor activity. Targeting multiple antigens simultaneously exploits the natural capacity of T cells to recognize and kill tumor targets via native T cell receptors ("TCR"), while limiting tumor adaptation/escape by antigen-negative selection or antigen down-regulation. When infused into a patient with cancer, the MAR-T cells are designed to kill cancer cells expressing the TAA.
