Ultimovacs is a biotechnology company focused on developing a next generation cancer vaccine with virtually universal potential. Lead asset, UV1, activates the immune system to recognise cancer cells that express human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT, or telomerase), which is present in over 85% of all cancer types. For this reason, UV1 has broad potential in a variety of cancers and in combination with other treatments. Ultimovacs’ R&D strategy is to combine UV1 with checkpoint inhibitors due to an expected treatment synergy. The broad R&D programme includes five Phase II trials in different solid tumours, which will enrol more than 600 patients in total. Readouts are expected over 2022–24, all within cash reach. In October 2021, the latest update of data from a Phase I trial of UV1 in advanced melanoma in combination with Keytruda continued to show an impressive objective response rate benefit.
