Private Company

Total funding raised: $25M

Overview

Accession Therapeutics is an emerging private biotech company pioneering a differentiated approach in immuno-oncology with its Trocept platform, a stealth virus technology engineered for tumor-specific entry. The company has advanced its lead candidate, TROCEPT-01 (ATTR-01), into a Phase 1 trial (ATTEST) for solid cancers and is building a broader pipeline. Backed by significant recent funding and led by an experienced team, including immuno-oncology pioneer Bent Jakobsen, Accession is positioning itself to address the limitations of current immunotherapies.

Oncology

Technology Platform

Trocept stealth virus platform: an engineered viral vector platform designed for tumor-specific entry and activation, bypassing healthy cells to deliver therapeutic payloads and address tumor heterogeneity.

Funding History

2
Total raised:$25M
Series A$20M
Seed$5M

Opportunities

The Trocept platform addresses major unmet needs in immuno-oncology by aiming to eliminate off-target toxicity and overcome tumor heterogeneity.
Successful clinical validation could lead to partnerships with large pharma and expansion into multiple cancer indications and combination therapies.

Risk Factors

High clinical risk as the novel Trocept platform is unproven in humans.
The company faces intense competition in the crowded immuno-oncology space and is dependent on successful trial outcomes and future fundraising to advance its pipeline.

Competitive Landscape

Accession competes in the broad and competitive oncolytic virus and tumor-targeted therapy space, which includes companies like Replimune, Turnstone Biologics, and DNAtrix. Its key claimed differentiator is the engineered specificity of viral entry to cancer cells only.
