ABOUT

 

T Cell Receptors (TCRs) constitute one of the most promising classes of emerging therapeutics. Whilst TCRs are amongst the most complex facets of immune biology, engineering of an optimum T Cell Receptor can transform immunotherapies and personalised medicines. 

Etcembly is building the world’s largest machine learning database and unmatched immunology expertise to deliver the safest and most powerful TCR immunotherapies through rapid computer-assisted engineering.

APPROACHING THE CHALLENGE

 

The TCR repertoire at any time point reflects on the person’s health and contains a memory of all past experiences. However, TCRs are highly variable and their activities aren’t easily predictable with traditional empirical methods.  

 

Data on a new TCR candidate should not only validate affinity, but also deliver exhaustive confirmation of every possibility of off-target, cross-reactive, or toxicity binding events.

 

By understanding an increasing database of TCR repertoires, Etcembly will be able to develop tools to assess immune health and identify disease biomarkers.

 

Our AI platform learns from the pattern of T cell target interactions and identifies T Cell Receptors that can be used to treat specific diseases in the clinic.

Etcembly has developed a proprietary machine learning platform - EMLy™ - trained and optimised to find deeply complex patterns in TCR repertoires. By leveraging this diversity, our AI, governed by biophysics, validated and optimised through empirical results, will lead to effective design of personalised therapeutics.

 

By employing our three-faceted TCR discovery platform, engineered to compress timelines and deliver rapid unbiased insights, your immune-based therapy will have the highest chance of success in specificity and efficacy in the quickest time possible.

three pillars to success

THREE PILLARS TO SUCCESS

 

1:  A well-trained, highly specific Machine Learning platform will explore the entire universe of possibilities, quickly identifying the highest potential TCR candidates that have the highest affinity and lowest probability of cross-reactivity, off-target or toxicity events.

 

2.  Data-guided empirical optimisation cycles and engineering will rapidly develop ideal TCR candidate(s) and eliminate adverse effects.

 

3. Rigorous in vitro validation will provide the predictive confidence that the ideal TCR candidate is clinically safe and potent.
