Marengo Therapeutics, Inc. (Marengo) is a clinical-stage biotech company pioneering a new way to activate T cells by targeting specificT cell receptors (TCRs) to selectively activate the right T cell subsets in order to treat checkpoint inhibitor (CPI) refractory human cancers. Bridge Informatics is proud to have contributed to an article Marengo published in the latest edition of Science Translational Medicine.
As explained in Marengo’s press release, the publication “highlights the potent and durable antitumor activity of STAR0602 across a broad range of PD1-refractory murine and human solid tumor models via a mechanism that is distinct to checkpoint inhibitors and cytokine therapies.”
