TCR EXPERTS AND PIONEERS

Unlocking the therapeutic potential of T cell receptor modalities

We envision a future in 20 years where soluble TCR modalities become as common of a treatment paradigm as antibodies are today. Keyway unites innovative minds in antibody discovery with the pioneering minds behind TCR therapeutics, to provide comprehensive, proprietary technology and capabilities for end-to-end discovery of TCR mimics (TCRms) and engineered TCRs.

TARGET THE UNDRUGGABLE

Discover TCRms that drug pMHC complexes in a highly specific manner

TCRms are antibodies that have been developed to target peptides presented on the cell surface in the context of major histocompatibility complexes (pMHCs), opening up a wide range of intracellular targets, including novel cancer targets. Keyway‘s robust TCRm discovery services is an end-to-end solution from target idea to final panel of therapeutic leads. We start with high-quality pHLA generation for discovery and optimization and complete campaigns with in vitro and in silico specificity testing to reduce the off-target effects that can limit many TCRm therapeutics in the clinic.

STEP ONE

Generation of high-quality
pMHC complexes

Proprietary protocols, workflows, know-how, technology, and materials for the consistent generation of high-quality pMHC complexes, giving you the high-quality antigens that are crucial for the generation of high-quality therapeutic leads.

STEP TWO

Discovering a diverse array of highly specific, fully-human antibodies

Alloy’s full suite of in vivo, in vitro and in silico antibody discovery capabilities are tailored to identifying and optimizing a diverse set of antibodies that bind to a specific pMHC complex. This approach selects for non-specific binders to related pMHC complexes while also using Alloy’s AI/ML workflows to reduce genome-wide polyreactivity.

STEP THREE

Performing appropriate specificity testing to select for the best therapeutic leads

We leverage pMHC phage and eukaryotic display libraries for specificity testing to address off-target non-specificity effects, to give you greater confidence that Keyway-generated therapeutic candidates are successful as they advance to clinical trials.

EXPERT LEADERSHIP

“TCR-based therapeutics offer great promise to improve immunotherapies. Keyway democratizes access to TCR discovery capabilities.”

Dongxing Zha, PhD, CTO of TCR Discovery & Engineering and CEO of Keyway TCR Discovery

Alloy Therapeutics Announces Institutional License Agreement with Scripps Research for its ATX-Gx™ Platform for Fully Human Antibody Discovery

Agreement provides Scripps Research scientists with broad access to Alloy’s fully human transgenic mouse platform, which has the power to increase the pace and success rate of antibody discovery and vaccine development efforts. —
 

BOSTON, Mass., October 30th, 2024 – Alloy Therapeutics, a biotechnology ecosystem company dedicated to democratizing access to biologics drug discovery platforms and services, today announced that it has entered into an institutional licensing agreement with Scripps Research for its ATX-Gx platform for fully human antibody discovery. The non-exclusive license enables all Scripps Research scientists to use the ATX-Gx platform for antibody drug and vaccine discovery workstreams. Scripps Research has been at the forefront of biomedical research since its founding in 1924, and its scientists have played pivotal roles in the development of more than 15 medicines approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
 
Over the past five years, Alloy’s ATX-Gx platform has become the industry standard for fully human transgenic mouse platforms. The ATX-Gx platform enables therapeutic discovery programs and has been used by over 170 partners. The institutional license with Scripps Research further expands the platform’s reach in vaccine discovery. The ATX-Gx platform, which enables best-in-class in-vivo human antibody discovery, comprises multiple strains of mice that have been engineered to express human antibody genes. These humanized mice produce immune responses that are as robust as wild-type animals but also have immune repertoires similar to those of humans. Antibodies discovered using ATX-Gx mice are highly likely to demonstrate similar activity in humans and require minimal to no optimization before being advanced to preclinical and clinical studies. This platform has the potential to increase the pace and success of vaccine and therapeutic discovery research across a broad array of indications.
 
“Our ATX-Gx platform has already been validated as a powerful tool for antibody therapeutics discovery, and we are excited that the scientists at Scripps Research are expanding the use of our platform into vaccine development,” said Piotr Bobrowicz, Ph.D., President at Alloy. “We look forward to supporting the Scripps Research team as it deploys the ATX-Gx platform and to being part of its success as the institution continues to break scientific boundaries.”

Alloy Therapeutics Announces Platform License Agreement with Lilly

BOSTON, Mass., May 21st, 2024 – Alloy Therapeutics, a biotechnology ecosystem company dedicated to democratizing access to biologics drug discovery platforms and services, announced today a licensing agreement for its murine platforms for fully human antibody discovery with Eli Lilly and Company. The non-exclusive license provides Lilly access to the ATX-Gx™ and ATX-CLC™ mouse platforms and broad rights to use the Alloy platforms for antibody drug discovery and development under this multi-year collaboration.

Launched in 2019, the Alloy ATX-Gx platform has rapidly become the industry standard fully human transgenic mouse platform to enable therapeutic discovery programs utilized by over 170 partners. Alloy is dedicated to reinvesting its revenue into innovation and has continuously expanded its murine platforms, adding new strains such as ATX-GL™ with the full human lambda repertoire as well as ATX-GKH™ hyperimmune strain for increased generation of antigen-specific B-cells and enhanced IgG class switching. In 2023 Alloy launched the ATX-CLC platform expressing common light chain antibodies with full heavy chain diversity to enable efficient, modular bispecific discovery.

Access to Alloy’s platforms extends to Lilly’s Catalyze360™ program, a comprehensive platform designed to enable drug discovery and development for biotech partners, including opportunities for capital investment, world-class lab space, and exceptional R&D capabilities and expertise. Under the arrangement, biotech companies that work with Lilly Catalyze360 will have the opportunity for Alloy antibody discovery platforms to be deployed to rapidly progress partnered discovery campaigns and accelerate medicines to the clinic for patients.

“Lilly is a great collaboration partner, and we are excited to further enable the company’s broader R&D ecosystem with access to Alloy’s best-in-class technologies for discovering superior fully human antibodies and bispecifics against even the most challenging targets,” said Heather Schwoebel, CBO of Antibodies and Strategic Collaborations at Alloy. “This collaboration represents just one example of the many ways Alloy is flexible in enabling our partners with a breadth of discovery solutions to support their objectives and improve patient lives.”
