ImCyse SA is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company based in Liège, Belgium, that specializes in developing active immunotherapies aimed at treating and preventing severe chronic autoimmune diseases linked to immune system disruptions. Founded in 2010, ImCyse utilizes a unique technology platform that focuses on the administration of Imotopes™, specifically modified peptides that generate cytolytic CD4 T-cells. These T-cells selectively eliminate antigen-presenting cells and autoantigen-specific lymphocytes, targeting the underlying causes of diseases like type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis. ImCyse's innovative approach not only aims to provide therapeutic alternatives where none exist but also seeks to cure patients without compromising their immune defenses. The company has demonstrated proof of concept across several indications and has successfully completed its first clinical trial for type 1 diabetes, yielding promising results while developing additional Imotopes™ for various autoimmune conditions.
