This pipeline includes:

                   •  Ex vivo Treg induction assays using patient-derived
                       PBMCs
                   •  Dendritic cell conditioning studies across delivery
                       platforms
                   •  Cross-species immunogenicity modeling to predict
                       ADA risks
                   •  Tolerogenic adjuvant screening libraries—co-
                       formulated and optimized early

               Tolerization isn’t treated as a downstream surprise.
               It’s treated as a solvable design challenge.




               3. Delivery Engineering as an Immune Decision

               In most companies, delivery decisions come after
               formulation.
               They’re based on pharmacokinetics, dosing convenience, or
               manufacturing constraints.

               In a tolerance-first model, delivery is one of the first
               immunological decisions made:

                   •  Oral or mucosal delivery is prioritized where
                       feasible
                   •  Subcutaneous injections are re-evaluated in light of
                       local dendritic cell activation risks
                   •  Micro-dosing strategies are tested preclinically for
                       immune education potential
                   •  Novel encapsulation techniques (e.g., enteric-coated
                       nanoparticles) are co-developed with the biologic
                       itself
