BioMed X Institute joins forces with Daiichi Sankyo in cancer therapy

14 January 2025

German independent biomedical research institute BioMed X has launched a new collaboration with Japanese drugmaker Daiichi Sankyo (TYO: 4568).

This collaboration marks the start of a cutting-edge initiative to explore innovative approaches in cancer treatment using multi-specific biologics. The new project, titled New Strategies for Targeting of Solid Tumors with Multi-Specific Biologics (MTT; Multi-Specific Targeting of Tumor s), will be hosted at the BioMed X Institute in Heidelberg.

The goal of this partnership is to leverage the latest advances in multi-functional biologics, such as bi- and tri-specific antibodies, to develop new therapies that can engage multiple targets simultaneously within the tumor microenvironment. These next-generation therapies aim to overcome the limitations of conventional treatments by leveraging synergistic effects of different antitumor signaling pathways and mechanisms by manipulating proximity of multiple targets.
