ExpreS2ion Biotechnologies is a clinical-stage DK based biotech company specialised in the development of new vaccines and immunotherapy products. The company has a discovery platform built around a proprietary recombinant expression system, ExpreS2 TM, developed especially for fast and efficient development and production of complex proteins required for innovative new vaccines, immunotherapy and diagnostics. The system also includes functionally modified glycosylation variants. For the clinical Phase III-stage COVID-19 vaccine, ABNCoV2, the Company employs a novel plug-&-play capsid virus-like particle (cVLP) platform, that offers competitive advantages in terms of long-term efficacy, safety, stability, and costing. The cVLP and ExpreS2 TM platforms are also basis for a proprietary HER2-cVLP breast cancer vaccine, ES2B-C001, which has proven preclinical proof of concept and is on path towards clinical investigations. The development pipeline also has projects based on the ExpreS2 platform alone, including multiple clinical-stage malaria vaccine projects sponsored by academic partners, as well as novel preclinical-stage influenza and CMV vaccines, the latter in a research collaboration with Evaxion Biotech. Since founded in 2010, ExpreS2ion has produced more than 500 proteins and virus-like particles (VLPs) in collaboration with a high number of leading research institutions, biotech and pharma companies, demonstrating superior efficiency and success rates. The cVLP platform resides in its 34%-owned associated company AdaptVac that was founded in 2017. ExpreS2ion Biotechnologies ApS is a fully owned Danish subsidiary and operational unit of ExpreS2ion Biotech Holding AB, listed on Nasdaq First North Growth Market, Stockholm (Ticker: EXPRS2).
