Immune powered precision medicine

Mapping the immune system across health and disease to advance precision medicine

Platform

IMU is a discovery engine mapping the immune system in unprecedented detail and scale to deliver unique, systems-level immune insights

Partnerships

IMU is partnering to unlock the potential of the immune system and advance immune medicines

Patient stratification

The right patient for the right drug

Immune medicine is revolutionising cancer treatment but only works in ~20% of patients. This is due to the huge variation in immune competence across patient groups. IMU can stratify patients by systemic immune signatures to enhance our understanding of which patients will respond to treatment, how patients can be better primed before treatment and to guide the better design of combination therapies.

Patient monitoring

Non-invasive, frequent patient analysis

The IMU platform requires only 2ml of fresh or cryopreserved blood samples. This allows for regular, cost-effective monitoring of patients’ immune systems for signatures of treatment response, immune reconstitution after lymphodepletion, irTOX, disease progression or relapse. The low material requirements and real time data analysis allow IMU to fit seamlessly into clinical workflows. 

Cell therapy production

Donor stratification by immune signatures

Immune cells do not exist in isolation in vivo; rather, the immune environment from which they derive can shed light on how effective the cells will be in vitro. IMU can stratify cell therapy donors by systemic immune analysis that permits the identification of specific signatures correlating with successful expansion and functional endpoints.

How we do it

The science behind

History

About us

IMU was founded on the belief that deep immunophenotyping at population level scale powered by machine learning could unlock the power of the immune system to help develop the next generation of immune medicines. We believe that in the future, no medical decision will be made without an understanding of a patient's immune system.
