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
