Overview
MABPRO is a private, European biotech focused on a novel CA IX-targeting immunotherapy platform for hypoxic tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer and renal cell carcinoma. The company integrates therapeutic antibody development with a sophisticated diagnostic and bioinformatics program for patient stratification, aligning with precision medicine. It has gained recognition through the Horizon Europe Seal of Excellence and positive EIC Accelerator evaluations, positioning it in the pre-clinical/early clinical development stage. MABPRO's strategy leverages a network of clinical and academic partners in Central Europe to advance its programs.
Technology Platform
Personalized immunotherapy platform targeting Carbonic Anhydrase IX (CA IX) on hypoxic tumors. Combines humanized monoclonal antibodies (CA9hu-1, CA9hu-2) designed for immune recruitment (ADCC) and enzymatic inhibition with a companion diagnostic and patient stratification system using bioinformatics and machine learning.

Competitive Landscape
The competitive landscape is broad in immuno-oncology, but focused CA IX targeting is a specialized niche. MABPRO may compete with other companies developing CA IX inhibitors (small molecule or antibody) or broader hypoxia-targeting therapies. Its key differentiator is the combination of immune recruitment, enzymatic inhibition, and a dedicated patient stratification platform.
