Crescendo Biologics
Crescendo Biologics is building a pipeline of novel, targeted T-cell enhancing Humabody® therapeutics based on its highly innovative VH antibody fragment platform through both in-house development and strategic partnerships. Crescendo’s proprietary VH technology produces human heavy chain-only antibodies in the transgenic Crescendo Mouse providing a unique source of fully human VH fragments that have matured in vivo to have high affinity, stability and solubility. VH fragments are the smallest antibody fragments that retain binding affinity and specificity offering the potential to generate novel products with improved drug-like properties and able to address unmet medical needs. Crescendo’s technologies originated from discoveries by scientists at the Babraham Institute, Cambridge (UK).
