Description
Company Summary:
Our team at Verismo Therapeutics is small but driven, with the single focus of bringing life-changing cell therapies to patients with cancer.
With a solid pipeline built around a novel KIR-CAR platform, our technology has found a way to circumvent the barriers in solid cancer where other CAR therapies have limited success.
KIR-CARs eliminate the artificial chimeric constructs within T cells and instead use a natural NK-cell derived signaling system.This system is potent against both hematologic and solid tumors, and in preclinical models is superior to current CAR-T in conferring long-term sustained anti-tumor function to overcome the challenges posed in solid cancer.
We have a strong semi-virtual team for CMC, clinical product manufacture, and clinical investigators already established and moving fast to bring KIR-CARs to patients in need.
Our company is comprised of individuals who each bring something unique to the table and are valued for their contributions.
Our culture is based on the concept of 'love what you do' and the dedication that builds a team where people do their best and support one another.
Because we believe our people are our greatest asset, career development is an important aspect of our investment in our team and we encourage work/life balance.
Verismo Therapeutics was named one of the Top Places to Work in Philadelphia in 2023 by the Philadelphia Business Journal.
