Mendus is an immuno-oncology company specialising in the field of allogeneic dendritic cell biology. It has two clinical-stage assets, vididencel and ilixadencel, both of which are off-the-shelf cell-based vaccines, designed to improve survival outcomes for cancer patients. Mendus is developing the lead programme, vididencel, as a maintenance therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML).
