Both products have a strong interest in combination with the available T checkpoints as well as in case of escape to this line of immune treatment.

“Our franchise in immuno-oncology is positioned on T-cell specific activation by neoepitopes and on suppressive cell blockage in the tumor microenvironment by a checkpoint. Tedopi® and OSE-172 (Effi-DEM) are key assets to reinforce our visibility with clinicians, in particular in the United States”, said Dominique Costantini.

Immunotherapy is a highly promising and growing market. By 2023 Immunotherapy of cancer could represent nearly 60% of treatments against less than 3% at present * and the projected market is estimated at $67 billion in 2018 **.

There are more than 80 autoimmune diseases that represent a significant market including major players in the pharmaceutical industry with sales towards $10 billion for the main products. The medical need is largely unmet and requires the provision of new innovative products involved in the regulation of the immune system.
