License Grant
The England / Wales Licensor granted to Research Center a license to our intellectual property in order to design, prepare for, sponsor, and carry out the clinical trial. Licensor retain the right to continue the development of BT1718 during the clinical trial. Upon the completion of the Phase I/IIa clinical study, Licensor have the right to obtain a license to the results of the clinical trial upon the payment of a milestone, in cash and ordinary shares, with a combined value in the mid six digit dollar amount. If such license is not acquired, or if it is acquired and the license is terminated and Licensor decide to abandon development of all products that deliver cytotoxic payloads to the MT1 target antigen, Licensor will assign or grant an exclusive license to develop and commercialize the product on a revenue sharing basis (in which case Licensor will receive tiered royalties of the net revenue depending on the stage of development when the license is granted).
License Property
BT1718 is a product candidate that is a Bicycle Toxin Conjugate which is being developed to target tumors that express Membrane Type 1 matrix metalloprotease, or MT1-MMP. The Bicycle is chemically attached to a toxin that when administered is cleaved from the Bicycle and kills the tumor cells. BT1718 is being investigated for safety, tolerability and efficacy in an ongoing Phase I/IIa clinical trial in collaboration with a Research Center.
Bicycles are a unique therapeutic modality combining the pharmacology usually associated with a biologic with the manufacturing and pharmacokinetic, or PK, properties of a small molecule. Bicycles are excreted by the kidney rather than the liver and have shown no signs of immunogenicity to date, which we believe together support a favorable toxicological profile.
Licensor is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel class of medicines, which we refer to as Bicycles, for diseases that are underserved by existing therapeutics. Bicycles are fully synthetic short peptides constrained to form two loops which stabilize their structural geometry. This constraint is designed to confer high affinity and selectivity and the relatively large surface area presented by the molecule allows targets to be drugged that have historically been intractable to non-biological approaches
Field of Use
BT1718 has demonstrated promising target-dependent efficacy and only a subset of the toxicities typically associated with other highly potent cancer treatments.

License Grant
Pursuant to the agreement, the Licensee of the United Kingdom will fund the Licensor of the United Kingdom and sponsor development of BT7401 from current preclinical studies through the completion of a Phase IIa trial in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Licensor granted to a license to intellectual property in order for Licensee to design, prepare for, sponsor, and carry out the clinical trial and all necessary preclinical activities to support the trial. Upon successful development, and other conditions, we will assign or grant to Licensee an exclusive license to develop and commercialize the product.
License Property
The drug development referred to as Bicycle BT7401.
Licensor is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing a novel and differentiated class of medicines, referred to as Bicycles®, for diseases that are underserved by existing therapeutics. Bicycles are fully synthetic short peptides constrained to form two loops which stabilize their structural geometry.
BT7401 is a chemically synthesized, multivalent small molecule agonist of CD137, comprised of Bicycles connected by stable linkers through a central hinge. Though prior programs using antibodies to agonize CD137 have demonstrated robust and durable anti-tumor effects, they have been limited by severe hepatotoxicity observed in clinical trials. Preliminary toxicology studies suggest BT7401 may circumvent this limitation. In addition, BT7401 has shown significant pharmacologic activity in preclinical models. These findings indicate that BT7401 may offer an improved therapeutic index compared to that of antibody-based approaches.
“The modular nature of the Bicycle platform enables a number of opportunities to generate new therapeutics that could address unmet need in oncology and other serious diseases.â€
Field of Use
The field of use is in patients with advanced solid tumors.

License Grant
The parties partnered to jointly develop and commercialize three of Licensor’s early-stage investigational bispecific antibody product candidates and enter into a discovery research collaboration for future differentiated antibody therapeutics for cancer.
License Property
Epcoritamab (DuoBody-CD3xCD20) is a bispecific antibody created using Licensor’s proprietary DuoBody technology. Epcoritamab is designed to target CD3, which is expressed on T cells and is part of the T cell receptor signaling complex, and CD20, a clinically well validated therapeutic target. CD20 is expressed on a majority of B cell malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). In a number of laboratory models, epcoritamab has shown highly effective killing of CD20+ tumors and induced potent tumor cell lysis across a panel of B cell tumor lines. Epcoritamab is currently evaluated in a Phase 1/2 study for multiple hematological B cell malignancies.
The companies will partner to develop Licensor’s next-generation bispecific antibody programs, epcoritamab (DuoBody®-CD3xCD20), DuoHexaBody®-CD37 and DuoBody-CD3x5T4. The collaboration combines Licensor’s world-class discovery and development engine and next-generation bispecific antibody therapeutic candidates with Licensee’s deep clinical expertise, innovative antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) platform and global commercial leadership in hematological cancers. Licensor’s DuoBody-CD3 technology engages and directs cytotoxic T cells selectively to tumors to elicit an immune response towards malignant tumor cells. Licensee’s ADC technology allows the delivery of a therapeutic toxin directly to cancer cells while sparing normal, healthy cells, providing for a more targeted, less toxic treatment approach.
Licensor is a biotechnology company specializing in the creation and development of differentiated antibody therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. Licensors technology base consists of validated and proprietary next generation antibody technologies – the DuoBody® platform for generation of bispecific antibodies, the HexaBody® platform, which creates effector function enhanced antibodies, the HexElect® platform, which combines two co-dependently acting HexaBody molecules to introduce selectivity while maximizing therapeutic potency and the DuoHexaBody® platform, which enhances the potential potency of bispecific antibodies through hexamerization.
Field of Use
The field of use is for the treatment of cancer utilizing antibodies. Bispecific antibodies (also known as dual-targeting molecules) bind to two different epitopes, either on the same or on different targets. This may improve the antibodies’ specificity and efficacy in inactivating the disease target cells.
Licensee has a clinical expertise, innovative antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) platform and global commercial leadership in hematological cancers.
IPSCIO Record ID: 359135
License Grant
Licensor entered into a license agreement with Chinese Licensee, thereby granting to Licensee exclusive rights to commercialize Licensor's monoclonal antibody, Pritumumab, in international markets, excluding North America and Central America.
License Property
Pritumumab, a drug candidate using monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of various cancer types. Pritumumab may offer an advantage over existing treatments. Pritumumab works by binding to a target on the surface of cancer cells called ectodomain vimentin (also referred to as cell-surface vimentin). The target, generally referred to as an antigen, is prevalent in many different tumor types and is not being targeted by any other biopharmaceutical companies. By binding to this target, Pritumumab is able to make the tumor cells “known†to the body’s immune system, resulting in potentially several types of immune responses, including anti-idiotype, apoptosis, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and complement-dependent cytotoxicity, leading to death of the cancer cells and overall depletion of the tumor.
Field of Use
Field of use is for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer and exploring in its use against viruses.
