About Epitopea

Epitopea is a transatlantic cancer immunotherapeutics company with operations in Cambridge, UK, and Montreal, Canada, established in 2021. The company is focused on developing immunotherapies to treat cancer by targeting a novel class of tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) known as Cryptigen™ antigens.

These antigens are broadly shared among patients with the same type of cancer. Epitopea leverages a proprietary platform to identify these markers on the surface of cancer cells. The company is developing a pipeline of accessible, off-the-shelf RNA-based immunotherapies. This approach aims to provide broadly applicable cancer treatments.

Epitopea has entered into a license and research collaboration agreement with MSD (Merck) to identify Cryptigen™ tumor-specific antigens. The company has secured over $45 million in financing to support the strategic development and clinical entry of its lead product candidate, Cryptigen™.
