Newco sends up Flare in bid to Dispatch solid tumors

July 24, 2025
By Randy Osborne
No Comments
Dispatch Biotherapeutics Inc. is taking aim at solid tumors with a new viral vector/antigen technology backed by major industry names such as Arch Venture Partners and Bristol Myers Squibb Co. With offices in Philadelphia and San Francisco, Dispatch has raised $216 million since its founding in 2022. The firm’s platform delivers a cell-specific viral vector carrying a novel, universal antigen called Flare that tags solid, epithelial-derived tumor cells. Acting as a beacon, the Flare antigen directs the immune system to find and clear the cancer cells without harming healthy tissue.

Alphadesign: AI creating proteins from scratch

June 19, 2025
By Nuala Moran
No Comments
The Alphafold machine learning system for predicting a protein’s structure from its amino acid sequence has been adapted to make it possible to design de novo proteins that fold in a particular way and bind to prespecified target proteins. The sister system, called Alphadesign, works by generating random strings of amino acids, using Alphafold to predict their structure, and then iteratively optimizing the design.
