Neogap’s personalised immunotherapy, pTTL
Neogap is developing pTTL, a personalised, cell-based immunotherapy designed to enhance the patient’s own T cells to fight cancer. The therapy combines advanced DNA sequencing with T-cell expansion in a precision treatment for solid tumours and is based on Neogap’s proprietary technologies, PIOR® and EpiTCer®. The aim is to offer patients a tailored and innovative therapy that meets their specific needs.

Neogap recently announced positive initial safety observations from the first two patients treated in its ongoing Phase I/II trial for advanced colorectal cancer. The initial safety data indicate that the treatment is well tolerated, with no serious treatment-related adverse events observed.
