Medigene AG to Present Expitope 3.0 at the 20th Annual Meeting of the Association for Cancer Immunotherapy (CIMT)


Martinsried/Munich, April 27, 2023. Medigene AG (Medigene, FSE: MDG1, Prime Standard), an immuno-oncology platform company focusing on the discovery and development of T cell immunotherapies for solid tumors, will be presenting at the 20th Association for Cancer Immunotherapy (CIMT) annual meeting being held on May 3-5, 2023, in Mainz.

The data to be presented will focus on Expitope 3.0, an in silico tool to identify immunogenic epitopes as suitable T cell receptor (TCR) target specificities. Moreover, Expitope 3.0 enables the comparison of expression of epitopes in various healthy tissues to predict potential cross-reactivity and off-target toxicity. Presentation of the data includes a poster as well as an oral presentation.
