Strong international IP protection is critical as we advance in clinical development – not only to enable future partnerships, but to reinforce the global credibility of our technology. Patent protection in China, one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing life science markets, also supports our long-term ambition to deliver innovative therapies for patients with hard-to-treat cancer.
Neogap is developing a personalised cell therapy that addresses one of the greatest challenges in modern oncology – the ability to selectively target the unique mutations of a tumour. By using a patient’s own T cells and training them to recognise the tumour-specific targets, the therapy creates a targeted treatment with the potential to cure patients who currently have no remaining treatment options. This is particularly relevant in colorectal cancer, a major disease with rising incidence, especially among younger patients. I look forward to contributing to the company’s continued development.
Jonas brings clinical expertise and an international perspective with deep roots in advanced cell therapy. His experience will be of great value as we progress in our clinical development programme and strengthen the company for the next stages.
The EpiTCer® technology is very powerful, as it not only enables efficient delivery of neoantigens to the immune system and selective expansion of tumour-specific T cells, but also provides us with the tools to functionally assess the potency of our therapy. This combination makes Neogap’s approach unique within cell therapy.
Being able to give the full dose from the outset is an important step in the development of our personalised cell therapy. It allows us to collect data earlier that may contribute to the evaluation of both the treatment’s safety and efficacy, while supporting a more efficient and flexible study design – to the benefit of both patients and our continued development efforts.

We would like to extend a warm welcome to Anna Kälvemark and Steve Glavas to Neogap's board. They are an ideal complement to Neogap's board at a stage when we are about to enter the clinical phase.
By identifying a patient's personal autoantigen profile, treatment can be adapted for that particular individual. T cells drive most autoimmune diseases, and if we can find a way to silence them in a disease such as MS, it can pave the way for a more precise way to treat other autoimmune diseases as well.
The results demonstrate the potential of our EpiTCer® technology and further strengthen our belief that the choice of neoantigens, and how to administer them, are critical parameters for the production of potent, tumour-targeted T cells and the foundation for successful immunotherapeutic treatment.
