Antibody Licensing Opportunities From a One-of-a-Kind Discovery Engine
Antibodies continue to expand the boundaries of druggable targets and treatable diseases. Yet bringing a biologic to market, even one that promises to be first- or best-in-class, is filled with pre-clinical and clinical obstacles that can’t be overcome alone.
At Twist Bioscience, we're seeking partnerships with academic, biotech, and biopharma teams
to help us translate lead assets from our unique discovery and optimization platform into clinical successes. Through close collaboration, we can break the shackles off of hard-to-drug targets in strategic therapeutic areas, ensuring that no disease is labeled “untreatable” and no patient is left behind.
Our Therapeutic Focus
Why partner with Twist?
Robust pre-clinical data packages
We’ve generated favorable binding, functional, and in vivo data for many of our lead antibody agonists, antagonists, and binders, giving you a head start on pre-clinical development and validation.
Derisked and vetted by our experts
Our high-throughput developability workflow and comprehensive screening by our internal team of antibody experts ensures that we’ve mitigated developability risks as much as possible.
Best-in-class discovery and optimization
Our lead assets were discovered and optimized using our unique, high-diversity phage display libraries and mouse-based platforms that explore only the most promising, relevant sequence space.
Flexible design and collaboration
Many of our leads are fully-humanized IgG antibodies or VHH nanobodies. Our antibody expertise, base-by-base DNA writing capabilities, and flexible partnership accelerate the development of bispecific antibodies or other therapeutic classes.
