ImmunoPrecise Launches Abthena™ Bispecific Platform And Artemis™ Intelligence Metadata (AIM)

VICTORIA, September 23, 2019 / – IMMUNOPRECISE ANTIBODIES LTD. (the “Company” or “IPA”) (TSX VENTURE: IPA) (OTCQB: IPATF), an industry leader in the discovery of novel, therapeutic antibodies, announces its Abthenabispecific antibody platform and the complementary Artemis Intelligence Metadata (AIM) suite.

Bispecific antibodies are a class of engineered antibodies and antibody-like proteins that, in contrast to traditional, monospecific antibodies, do not occur naturally. Abthenabispecifics have the ability to bind two different molecules with a single antibody, increasing the therapeutic effectiveness of targeting infectious diseases, payload delivery and functional activity toward challenging targets. Alternatively, Abthena products can be used to ‘dual target’, allowing detection or binding of a target cell type with much higher specificity than traditional, monospecific antibodies.

At ImmunoPrecise, we have designed an advanced discovery platform for wild-type and fully human bispecific antibody components, which allows for the generation of heterodimer, optimized, IgG backbones with validated binding attributes. Abthena produces yields comparable to its monospecific equivalents, with a high degree of dimer formation, a platform which blends seamlessly with Artemis Intelligence Metadata (AIM) capabilities to enable rapid turnaround on additional algorithmic outputs in therapeutic optimization, stability, affinity and manufacturability.
