Company Overview
Repertoire Immune Medicines is a clinical-stage biotechnology company harnessing the power of the human immune system to develop transformative therapies for cancer and autoimmune disease. Using its proprietary DECODE™ platform—which maps the immune synapse between T cell receptors (TCRs) and their antigen targets—Repertoire translates unique biological insights into potent and targeted off-the shelf immune medicines. The company integrates deep protein engineering expertise with artificial intelligence, powered by a proprietary DECODE database of over one billion TCR-antigen interactions, to accelerate discovery and optimize drug candidates.
From its sites in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Zurich, Switzerland, Repertoire is advancing a pipeline of T cell-targeted immunotherapies with the potential to address a broad range of cancers and autoimmune disorders. The company’s lead oncology program, RPTR-1-201, a TCR bispecific, has initiated a Phase 1/2 clinical trial across multiple solid tumor indications. Repertoire plans to advance additional TCR bispecific therapies into clinical trials over the next 12-18 months. In autoimmune disease, Repertoire is partnering with leading pharmaceutical companies to develop mRNA tolerizing therapies designed to selectively expand regulatory T cells and reset the immune system.
Repertoire was founded in 2019 by Flagship Pioneering and is supported by a strong investor base. The DECODE platform has been validated through four strategic partnerships with leading pharmaceutical companies—Bristol Myers Squibb, Genentech, Eli Lilly, and Pfizer—representing over $4.5 billion in disclosed total deal value and $185 million in upfront payments received to date.

What We Do

Repertoire Immune Medicines is a biotechnology company dedicated to creating treatments for diseases based on the power of the human T cell repertoire to eliminate cancer cells, target pathogens, and regulate immune function in autoimmune disease. The company’s proprietary DECODE™ platform provides a comprehensive understanding of the interactions between T cell receptors and their antigens in disease. DECODE uniquely elucidates the entire immune synapse, including the T-cell receptor-epitope pairs that defines it, the HLA context, and the T cell phenotype. This capability enables the creation of new and potentially transformative classes of immune-based medicines. Repertoire believes the ability to decipher these interactions represents one of the greatest opportunities for innovation in medical science. The company is utilizing the discoveries from DECODE to design and develop novel immune therapies for multiple therapeutic areas, such as autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and cancer. The team operates from sites in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Zurich. To learn more about Repertoire, please visit www.repertoire.com.
