FAQ on Precision Immunotherapy: Creative Biolabs' Therapeutic Fc Engineering Technology

What is Fc engineering and why is it important?

Fc engineering involves targeted modifications to the Fc region of monoclonal antibodies to enhance immune effector functions, extend serum half-life, and tailor immune reactions, making it crucial for developing next-generation biologics with improved therapeutic performance.

How does Creative Biolabs’ Fc engineering technology work?

Creative Biolabs applies specific mutations to improve the affinity between the Fc region and Fcγ receptors, enhancing NK cell recruitment and tumor cell lysis, and utilizes structural design strategies to boost complement activation, among other techniques.

What are the benefits of effector function stimulation in Fc engineering?

Effector function stimulation enhances the interaction between the Fc region and Fcγ receptors, significantly improving the efficacy of antibodies in initiating ADCC and ADCP responses, which are vital for targeting tumor cells.

Can Fc engineering be used to inhibit immune responses?

Yes, through inhibitory mutations or structural redirection of the Fc domain, Creative Biolabs can develop ‘silent’ antibodies to downregulate unwanted inflammatory responses or immunotoxicity, beneficial in treating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

What is aglycosylation in the context of Fc engineering?

Aglycosylation involves the removal of glycosylation sites in the Fc region to enhance antibody stability and manufacturing flexibility, avoiding batch-to-batch heterogeneity and acquiring immune-silent properties.

Who can benefit from Creative Biolabs’ Fc engineering services?

Biopharmaceutical companies seeking to improve the therapeutic performance of their biologics, especially in treating solid tumors, hematologic malignancies, and autoimmune diseases, can benefit from these services.

Where is Creative Biolabs’ Fc engineering technology applicable?

This technology is applicable in the development of next-generation biologics for a wide range of indications, including cancer therapy, autoimmune disease treatments, and vaccine development.

How does Fc engineering compare to traditional antibody therapies?

Fc engineering offers a more targeted and versatile approach by enabling the customization of immune attributes, such as effector enhancement and inhibitory control, surpassing the limitations of traditional antibody therapies.

What should researchers know about Creative Biolabs’ Fc engineering platform?

Researchers should know that Creative Biolabs’ platform views the Fc region as a programmable immune interface, adaptable to clinical goals through multi-dimensional strategies like effector enhancement, complement activation, and glyco-modulation.
