Collaboration opportunity: Bicycle Therapeutics
BicycleTx Ltd. (Bicycle®) has developed an extensive library of small molecule compounds called ‘Bicycles’, which are constrained bicyclic peptides that bind with high affinity and selectivity to their target. Bicycle® is offering a set of tool monomeric and multimeric Bicycles that selectively bind human OX40/CD134 to agonise the receptor.
The company seeks to explore the potential application of Bicycles in treating diseases including (but not restricted to) cancers and immuno‐inflammation. Initially the team are looking for proposals focused on in vitro biology studies, with the potential to expand into in vivo (pre- clinical mechanistic, efficacy and/or PK-PD studies). The team is also interested in research that reveals new pharmacological and structural insights to understand their mechanism of action and potential application to treat human diseases.
