CERo Therapeutics Holdings

CERo Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. is an immunotherapy company, which engages in development of engineered T cell therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. The company is headquartered in South San Francisco, California and currently employs 8 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2021-10-06. Its proprietary approach to T cell engineering, which enables it to integrate certain desirable characteristics of both innate and adaptive immunity into a single therapeutic construct, is designed to engage the body’s full immune repertoire to achieve optimized cancer therapy. This novel cellular immunotherapy platform is designed to redirect patient-derived T cells to eliminate tumors by building in engulfment pathways that employ phagocytic mechanisms to destroy cancer cells, creating what the Company refers to as Chimeric Engulfment Receptor T cells (CER-T). Its lead molecule is CER-1236, an autologous T-cell product that targets a novel tumor antigen, TIM-4 ligand. The firm is initiating clinical trials for its lead product candidate, CER-1236, for hematological malignancies.
