Appia Bio is a biotechnology company dedicated to the research and development of allogeneic cell therapies that can be readily available for patients. The company focuses on creating engineered cell therapies for various medical conditions using its innovative ACUA technology platform. This platform utilizes the biology of lymphocyte development along with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and T-cell receptor (TCR) gene engineering to produce CAR-engineered invariant natural killer T (CAR-iNKT) cell subtypes derived from hematopoietic stem cells. By maturing and scaling healthy stem cells into these therapies, Appia Bio aims to provide safe and targeted cancer treatments, thereby enhancing accessibility to off-the-shelf cell therapies for physicians and patients alike.
