What Adventris Pharmaceuticals does
Adventris makes cancer vaccines. Our platform solves the problem of targeting poorly immunogenic oncogenes. Our first "off-the-shelf" vaccine targets KRAS, the most common cancer oncogene. In the long run, we envision a world where every adult receives our pan-cancer vaccines annually - preventing the majority of cancer deaths. If you are interested in learning more about our approach to treat and prevent cancer, please reach out to us at

Adventris makes cancer vaccines
We make cancer vaccines designed to target oncogenes that typically evade immune detection. Our first product is an "off-the-shelf" vaccine targeting KRAS, which is the most common cancer oncogene. Our platform aims to enable vaccines that could prevent many cancers before they develop.
We live in Baltimore, MD and plan to keep the company based here after YC.
Baltimore has strong biotech resources and is our home. Staying here keeps us close to our team and research partners.
