Glycotope Presents Glyco-Engineered Cell Lines at the 2023 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Meeting

Berlin, Germany, 17 April, 2023 – Glycotope GmbH, a biotechnology company utilizing a proprietary platform technology to developing antibodies against proteins carrying tumor-specific carbohydrate structures, today announces that it will present its glyco-engineered cell lines in a poster presentation at the 2023 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Meeting, being held in Orlando, Florida, United States, between 14-19 April 2023.

Patrik Kehler, Chief Scientific Officer of Glycotope GmbH commented: “Our glyco-engineered cell lines provide the basis for atnew generation of therapeutic antibodies with increased tumor specificity and safety for highly potent therapeutic approaches like ADCs, CARs and radiotherapeutics. Glycotope’s proprietary platform represents a versatile tool for target validation and screening of glycosylation-dependent protein binding antibodies. We look forward to presenting our work at the 2023 AACR Annual Meeting and discussing our approach with leading cancer research experts.”

About Glycotope

Glycotope is a biotechnology company utilizing a proprietary technology platform to develop uniquely tumor-specific monoclonal antibodies. Our antibodies target specific tumor-associated carbohydrate structures or protein/carbohydrate combined glyco-epitopes (GlycoTargets). Glycotope has to date discovered in excess of 200 GlycoTargets with antibodies against several of these targets currently under development.

Based on their superior tumor-specificity, our antibodies are suitable for development in an array of different modes of action including naked antibodies, bispecifics, antibody-drug-conjugates, cellular therapies or fusion-proteins. Visit www.glycotope.com
