Trio, Ajinomoto to develop cancer therapeutic

By The Science Advisory Board staff writers

May 1, 2020 -- Cancer therapeutics company Trio Pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceutical contract development and manufacturing company Ajinomoto Bio-Pharma Services have announced a partnership to develop cancer therapeutics.

Through the partnership, Ajinomoto Bio-Pharma will use its AJICAP site-specific technology to conjugate a cytotoxic payload to Trio's lead oncology candidate. Trio will then evaluate the functionality of the Triobody Drug Conjugate (TDC), an antibody-drug conjugation that targets tumor growth and immunosuppression.
