    Description

    Achilles is a fast paced, trail blazing bio-technology company focussed on the development of T cell therapies targeting clonal neoantigens for the treatment of cancer company. Originating from pioneering research at Cancer Research UK (CRUK), the Francis Crick Institute and University College London (UCL), we use DNA sequencing data from each patient, together with our proprietary PELEUSTM bioinformatics platform, to identify clonal neoantigens specific to that patient. From this, we develop personalised T cell therapies and currently have two programmes in the clinic for the treatment of Lung Cancer and Metastatic Malignant Melanoma.

    As no-one has done what we are doing before, there is no playbook to copy. This means we must innovate, adapt and collaborate across our organisation, working together to solve novel problems.
