Overcoming Persistent Hurdles in Oncology
At Sapience, we think boldly about the possibilities for treating cancer, providing new options for patients that address the disease where it forms. We are developing first-in-class peptide antagonists against the most elusive oncogenic and immune-modulating drug targets.
Advancing Intelligently-Designed Therapeutics
We are pioneering a new class of peptide antagonists called SPEARs™ (Stabilized Peptides Engineered Against Regulation). SPEARs hold the potential to combine the best properties of small molecules and antibodies in disrupting oncogenic and immune regulation – allowing us to address cancer at the source of disease. Two of our SPEARs, ST101 and ST316, are recruiting clinical studies in patients with advanced solid tumors.
