About IN01

IN01 vaccine is a proprietary biologic fusion molecule designed and developed by IN3BIO. It is administered after mixing with an adjuvant Montanide ISA 51 VG ST to produce an extemporaneous water in oil emulsion (W/O) known to enhance the immune response of therapeutic vaccines.

The vaccination of IN01 produces anti-EGF antibodies which capture EGF and prevent it from binding to its target, i.e. EGF-receptor on cell surface. This prevents proliferation of tumour cells affected by EGF mediated pathways.

IN01 is manufactured in a contracted certified GMP facility in the EU. Extensive testing as a single molecule or in combination with SMIs showed no adverse effect in several pre-clinical studies.
