About Us
we engineer life
XenoTherapeutics is a clinical-stage, cell therapy company engineering personalized cells, tissues, and organs for transplantation. XenoTherapeutics, along with its network of contract partnerships, conducts all phases of clinical product development, including cell design, initial genome engineering, prototype design, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical evaluation. We Engineer Life.
Founded in 2017 to capitalize on the technological breakthroughs in cell biology and genetic engineering, we are advancing our novel cell-therapy platform to develop, manufacture, and deliver an entirely new generation and fundamentally different class of engineered cells to treat common and rare diseases, at a scale never before possible.
​
Through our patented gene-editing techniques and exclusive manufacturing capabilities, we have achieved the first ever FDA-clearance in xenotransplantation for investigational use in human patients, unlocking hundreds of novel therapeutic treatments without the many complications of allogeneic-based cell therapies.
​
​
In addition to direct cell-replacement, we can also further engineer these cells to perform a broad range of functionalities including protein production, antibody creation, cytokine secretion, or local enzyme replacement for advanced therapeutic benefit.
We Believe
Mission
We exist to radically solve the unforgiving need
for cell, tissue, and organ transplantation
- for all humankind.
Vision
To stave off preventable mortality and to convert the hope of second chances
into reality
leading a New Frontier of Medicine
