Meet our CEO Tim Sharpington at Microbiome Connect in Boston from 20th-21st November to discuss our innovative live biotherapeutic products in immuno-oncology and inflammatory bowel disease. Microbiotica’s platform enables high-resolution identification and analysis of microbiota at the species level, leading to more precise therapeutic targeting and the potential for significantly improved clinical outcomes. Our MELODY-1 trial in advanced melanoma has dosed its first patient with MB097, an oral live biotherapeutic product (LBP) designed to improve the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors. COMPOSER-1 is our Phase 1b clinical trial of MB310, a monotherapy for treating ulcerative colitis, which is also actively recruiting patients. We’re looking forward to meeting others who are working to advance microbiome-based therapies. #Biotech #Pharma #ImmunoOncology #CancerResearch #Microbiome #IBS 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gNZWJzX3

🎙️ New Podcast Alert! Tim Sharpington and Trevor Lawley join Eliot Forster in the latest episode of new series The Life Sci Fantastic to discuss the potential of the human microbiome as a new treatment modality. Hear about: 🦠 The dynamic nature of our microbiome - antibiotics, diet and even where we live can shape our microbiome and, in turn, our health. 🌱 a future where monitoring and optimising our microbiome from birth could be routine, with specific bacteria used to prevent or treat diseases like cancer, IBD, and even mood disorders. 🔬 Our groundbreaking research suggests restoring the right gut bacteria could significantly improve outcomes. Tune in to hear more about our cutting-edge science and the exciting journey ahead for microbiome therapeutics 🎧 Listen now on Spotify: https://lnkd.in/en7j6_Qt 🎧 Available on Apple Podcasts: https://lnkd.in/ebksQmnm #Microbiome #CancerResearch #DrugDiscovery #Biotech #Immunotherapy #HealthcareInnovation

Immunotherapy has been life-saving for many patients, but there is still much work to be done for the many who don’t respond to treatment, or experience serious side effects. We are therefore delighted to be a part of the industry consortium for the £21.9M MANIFEST programme, which aims, over four years, to identify predictive biomarkers in over 6,000 cancer patients. This continues our commitment to understanding how the microbiome can play a role in the development of biomarkers and therapeutics in cancer. https://lnkd.in/er8xmr5v 🔗 Discover our MELODY-1 trial: https://lnkd.in/e8Q5PzSE 🔬www.microbiotica.com #Microbiome #CancerResearch #Melanoma #Biotech #Pharma #Innovation #ClinicalTrials

We’re excited to be part of the newly launched MANIFEST consortium a £21.9M UK-wide initiative to advance cancer immunotherapy through trials involving 6,000 patients, pre-treatment and during treatment. By monitoring biomarkers in these cancer patients we're striving to better understand responses to immunotherapy treatment. #Microbiome #CancerResearch #Immunotherapy #Biotech #Innovation
We’re delighted to be leading a new project alongside The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust to study responses to cancer immunotherapy. The platform has already received more than £20 million in public and industry investment and will involve thousands of people from across the UK receiving immunotherapy. Find out more about the platform, and hear from Crick and Royal Marsden group leader and consultant oncologist SAMRA TURAJLIC, science and technology secretary Peter Kyle, and Alex Green, who received immunotherapy treatment for melanoma ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ewvkJ-Fq

A major milestone as we can confirm that the first patient has been dosed in our international Phase 1b MELODY-1 trial of MB097, our precision microbiome co-therapy in advanced melanoma. Given as a co-therapy with MSD’s anti-PD-1 therapy KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab), MB097 aims to enhance immune response for patients who haven't responded to existing immunotherapies - representing up to 50% of advanced melanoma cases. MELODY-1 is set to recruit up to 40 patients across the UK, France, Italy, and Spain, with initial data readouts expected by the end of 2025. MB097, an orally administered live biotherapeutic product, contains a defined consortium of commensal bacterial strains designed to enhance the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors. With the potential to transform treatment for patients who are resistant to current therapies, we’re looking forward to seeing how MB097 can impact cancer care. 🔗 Read the press release: https://lnkd.in/e8Q5PzSE 🔬www.microbiotica.com #Biotech #Pharma #Innovation #Microbiome #ClincialTrials #CancerResearch #DrugDevelopment #Melanoma

On World Cancer Research Day, we recognise the crucial role of innovative science in the fight against cancer, and are pioneering a new approach to cancer care by harnessing the power of the gut microbiome. Our immuno-oncology programme MB097 is a consortium of nine bacterial strains, which together comprise a specific microbiome signature that enables improved patient responses to immunotherapies, offering new hope for personalised cancer care in advanced melanoma. Together, we’re advancing towards a future where microbiome-driven treatments could transform the standard of cancer care. #Pharma #Biotech #WorldCancerResearchDay #CancerResearch #Microbiome #WCRD 🔗https://lnkd.in/eZmHmiF
