About Us
Aleta Biotherapeutics is an immuno-oncology company focused on transforming cellular therapeutics to allow a broad spectrum of cancer indications to be targeted, including currently intractable solid tumors.
Aleta Bio has created a unique portfolio of multi-antigen targeting solutions for cell therapy, designed to address the critical issues of CAR-T persistence, tumor antigen loss leading to patient relapse, and tumor antigen heterogeneity.
Co-founders Paul Rennert and Roy Lobb bring extensive scientific and leadership experience in immunology, oncology and drug development to this new enterprise.
