About NexImmune
NexImmune is a Gaithersburg, MD-based clinical-stage biopharma company advancing a new generation of immunotherapies based on its proprietary artificial immune modulation (AIM) technology. The AIM platform is designed to generate a targeted T cell-mediated immune response and is initially being developed as a cell therapy for the treatment of hematologic cancers. AIM nano-particles (AIM-np) act as synthetic dendritic cells to deliver immune-specific signals to targeted T cells and can direct the activation or suppression of cell-mediated immunity. In cancer, AIM-expanded T cells have demonstrated best-in-class anti-tumor properties, including the ability to address key mechanisms of tumor escape and relapse through a unique combination of anti-tumor potency, multi-antigen target-specific killing, and long-term T cell persistence. The modular design of the AIM platform enables rapid expansion across multiple therapeutic areas (autoimmune diseases and infectious diseases), with both cell therapy and injectable products.
