ANNOUNCEMENT

Seeking Partner for our New COVID19 Therapy

​

Ibex Biosciences is seeking a partnership or license to our VHH against CD147 (also known as Basigin, EMMPRIN, Neurothelin), with target indications that include cancer, immune disorders, and infectious diseases (particularly COVID-19 and malaria). CD147 has also been reported to be a alternative receptor for infection by coronavirus,1,2 and malaria.3 Targeting of host receptor rather than the pathogen antigen avoids issues concerning pathogen mutations that can decrease treatment or vaccine efficacy. In addition, a clinical trial using a humanized anti-CD147 antibody has been reported to benefit COVID-19 patients4 and other studies point to the safety of anti-CD147 antibodies.
