XILIO THERAPEUTICS

Xilio Therapeutics is a biotechnology company advancing next-generation cancer immunotherapies designed to improve patient outcomes by unleashing the power of the immune system selectively at the site of the tumor. The company’s tumor-selective immunotherapies are based on its proprietary technology, which maximizes the potency of proven immuno-oncology therapies and restricts their activity to the tumor to minimize peripheral side effects. The broad applicability of these therapies across can... cer types means that all patients could benefit from these potentially curative medicines. These tumor-selective therapies are designed to overcome the significant toxicities associated with validated IO therapies, such as IL-2 and aCTLA4, which have historically limited the number of patients that can be treated and prevented patients from completing full courses of treatment Xilio Therapeutics proprietary technology enables the explosion of therapeutic activity specifically within the tumor while reducing toxicity throughout the body a nod to the company name, Xilio, derived from the Latin term, Ex Nihilo, meaning creation or big-bang. The company applying its technology to build a broad pipeline of engineered antibodies, cytokines and chemokines as potential new options for people living with cancer.
