Incendia Therapeutics is a precision oncology company dedicated to reprogramming the tumor microenvironment with the express intent of bringing recalcitrant cancers into submission. We recognize that cancer cells create a hostile microenvironment to privilege their own survival at the expense of the host tissue. Incendia’s approach is to attack the structural and biochemical underpinnings of the tumor microenvironment to enable host immune cells and Immuno-oncology therapeutics to reach their target.
Our mission is to serve cancer patients who are the most in need of novel therapeutics. Everything we do is guided by caring for and doing the right thing for those patients.
The Company’s most advanced clinical program is evaluating safety and potential efficacy of PRTH-101 in patients with refractory solid tumors (NCT05753722). Visit www.incendiatx.com to learn more.
