Products and Services

• THIO: A Telomere-targeting Agent

At the forefront of MAIA Biotechnology's promising product pipeline stands THIO, a novel telomere-targeting agent currently undergoing rigorous scrutiny in a Phase II clinical trial. THIO embodies the company’s commitment to leveraging groundbreaking scientific advancements to combat cancer. Specifically designed to disrupt the cellular machinery responsible for the immortality of cancer cells, THIO strategically targets telomeres – the protective caps at the ends of chromosomes. By undermining the integrity of these crucial structures in cancer cells, THIO aims to induce a potent therapeutic effect against the disease. Its current evaluation in patients with non-small cell lung cancer represents a pivotal step in determining its efficacy and potential to change the trajectory of cancer treatment.

• Second Generation Telomere Targeting Agents

In its relentless pursuit of excellence in oncology, MAIA Biotechnology is also dedicating resources to the development of second generation telomere targeting agents. Building upon the foundational knowledge and promising results garnered from THIO's development, these subsequent agents are envisioned to offer enhanced precision, efficacy, and safety. By expanding its portfolio with these advanced therapeutics, MAIA Biotechnology aims not only to fortify its position within the biotechnological sphere but also to broaden the horizon of available treatments for cancer patients. This initiative underlines the company’s unwavering dedication to innovation and its enduring commitment to confronting cancer on all fronts.
