Lytix Biopharma in brief:
Based in Oslo, Norway, Lytix is a clinical stage biotech company developing
novel cancer immunotherapies, an area within cancer therapy that is aimed at
activating the patient's immune system to fight cancer. The company's technology
is based on pioneering research in "host defense peptides" - nature's first line
of defense towards foreign pathogens. Lytix Biopharma's lead product, LTX-315,
is a first-in-class oncolytic molecule representing a new and superior
therapeutic principle to boost anti-cancer immunity, with the potential to be
the ideal combination partner with other types of immunotherapies. LTX-315
targets cancer cells and disintegrates their cell membranes, causing immunogenic
cell death and release of a patient's tumor specific antigens and potent
immunostimulants. This mode of action allows cytotoxic T cells to recognize,
infiltrate and attack cancer cells.
