A new approach for immune-cold cancers
Making tumors visible to the immune system.
LurexBio is developing a non-genetic, non-viral recognition engineering platform designed to address an important component of tumor immune evasion in immune-cold cancers.
Different biology. A new possibility.
Immunotherapy has transformed cancer care, but many solid tumors remain invisible to the immune system. That is not a problem of immune strength. It is a problem of recognition.
The immune system isn’t weak. In many solid tumors, it’s blind.
Recognition first. Amplification second.
Non-viral
No viral vector delivery
Non-genetic
No edits to the tumor genome
Modular
Adaptable across tumor types
Programmable
Designed to evolve with the science
Immune evasion limits options for many patients.
Many solid tumors, including MSS colorectal cancer and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, can evade immune recognition, limiting the effectiveness of current treatments.
Tumors use multiple mechanisms to avoid detection
Current treatment options remain limited
Addressing recognition may unlock new possibilities
Recognition engineering at the tumor surface.
Our modular platform is designed to install a synthetic immune flag on tumor surfaces, with the goal of enhancing immune recognition and creating new opportunities for therapeutic benefit.

Initial indications
One platform. Four programmable layers.
NeoTag
Signal
Designed to install a recognizable immune marker on the tumor cell surface, drawing on signals the immune system already knows.
