Overview
Company Summary
Evaxion Biotech A/S (EVAX) is a biotechnology company that specializes in the development of innovative immunotherapies for the treatment of serious diseases, particularly cancer and infectious diseases. The company combines artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms with advanced bioinformatics to identify novel targets for immunotherapies.
Evaxion's main focus lies in cancer immunotherapy, which aims to harness the body's immune system to specifically recognize and destroy cancer cells. The company's proprietary AI-driven platform analyzes vast amounts of genomics data, including DNA and RNA sequencing, to identify unique protein signatures, known as antigens, that are specific to cancer cells. By targeting these antigens, Evaxion develops personalized cancer vaccines and adoptive cell therapies that can elicit a specific immune response against malignant cells while minimizing harmful effects on healthy tissues.
Additionally, Evaxion also applies its AI technology to develop immunotherapies for infectious diseases, including viral infections. By mining genomic and proteomic data, the company aims to identify conserved antigens that can be targeted by vaccines or immunotherapies to strengthen the immune response against pathogens. This approach has the potential to significantly advance the development of vaccines and treatments for infectious diseases, including emerging viral threats.
Evaxion collaborates with academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and research organizations to further enhance its technology and extend its application to various disease areas. By leveraging the power of AI and bioinformatics, Evaxion Biotech is at the forefront of developing cutting-edge immunotherapies that have the potential to revolutionize the treatment landscape for cancer and infectious diseases.
