SENIOR SCIENTIST BIOTHERAPEUTICS

Incendia Therapeutics is a precision oncology company dedicated to reprogramming the tumor microenvironment with the express intent of bringing recalcitrant cancers into submission.

We recognize that cancer cells create a hostile microenvironment to privilege their own survival at the expense of the host tissue.

Incendia’s approach is to attack the structural and biochemical underpinnings of the tumor microenvironment to enable host immune cells and therapeutics to reach the tumor.
