Targeting T cells

By selectively targeting well differentiated T cells that express killer cell lectin like receptor G1 (KLRG1) – a cell type that has not been exclusively targeted before – we believe our novel approach will result in the depletion of these pathogenic cells in order to address T cell driven autoimmune diseases.

Novel Target KLRG1

KLRG1 an immune checkpoint cell surface receptor has been shown to be an important cell surface marker on well differentiated T cells that are highly cytotoxic and are known to drive autoimmune diseases.

T Cell Depletion with Ulviprubart

ULVI ANtibody

  • Target KLRG1 on highly cytotoxic T cells
  • Highly cytotoxic T cells are responsible for autoimmune disease
  • Ulviprubart is specific to these T cells that express KLRG1
  • By depleting these T cells, we believe we can impact pathogenesis of the autoimmune diseases

Our focus starts with Inclusion Body Myositis (IBM) but we believe our approach could have applications across many autoimmune indications.
