Vaccinex

Vaccinex, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering a differentiated approach to treating cancer and neurologic diseases through the inhibition of semaphorin 4D (SEMA4D). Their lead drug candidate, pepinemab, blocks SEMA4D and has potential to increase immune activity against tumors and reprogram underlying pathogenic immune mechanisms that amplify damage in chronic neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's disease. Their research has shown promising results in clinical trials for head and neck cancer, Huntington's Disease, and Alzheimer's Disease.

In addition to their clinical programs, Vaccinex leverages its proprietary drug discovery platform, ActivMAb®, to create opportunities for future pipeline expansion and strategic collaborations. ActivMAb® is a unique platform that enables the discovery and development of antibodies with high selectivity and novel mechanisms of action against complex membrane proteins. This technology allows for the expression of multi-pass membrane proteins in a format suitable for use with both in vitro and in vivo Antibody Discovery methods, and is used to accelerate drug discovery and development.

Vaccinex offers a competitive benefits package to its employees, including comprehensive medical and dental insurance, paid vacation and holidays, paid personal time off, a 401(k) retirement savings plan, disability benefits, and an employee incentive stock option plan.
