VacV Biotherapeutics is headquartered in London and sources novel research and therapeutic concepts from Barts Cancer Institute, London, UK. We now have an R&D center at BioBay in Suzhou, China, and aims to expand globally.
We have established two core oncolytic immunotherapy platforms based on genetically engineered adenovirus (AdV) and systemically deliverable vaccinia virus (VV), focusing on the treatment of CNS malignancies (e.g., glioblastoma and pediatric intrinsic pontine glioma) and refractory/metastatic solid tumors. Our unique operational model combines the efficiency advantages of early-stage R&D in China with the capabilities of late-stage global clinical development. Notably, our lead product BioTTT001 has shown dramatic efficacy in patients with recurrent GBM and DIPG.
