Executive Summary
Costanoan Immunotherapies Inc. aims to immunize cancer patients with polymer particles, or beads, that display antigens and other immunomodulators in regular patterns. Data in animals show that Costanoan's antigen-bearing beads stimulate an immune response stronger than antigens presented as peptides alone.
