The TIMNano project aims to develop and validate an innovative Targeted Nano-immune Modulator (TNM) platform to restore immune control over gastrointestinal (GI) cancers particularly those expressing the CEACAM5 antigen. The core objectives include:
Technology Development
Technology Development Scale up and produce Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)- compliant TNM-101 nanoparticles and complete Chemistry Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) documentation necessary for clinical trials.
Preclinical Validation
Conduct safety, immunogenicity, biodistribution, and toxicology studies in relevant models.
Clinical Translation
Prepare for and initiate a Phase 1/2a First-in-Human (FIH) clinical trial.
Biomarker Development
Validate immunological biomarkers for patient stratification
Commercialization Readiness
Develop a business model, IP strategy, and market exploitation plan including potential spin-off creation
