Senior/Executive Medical Director, Clinical Development
About the Company:
Dren Bio is a privately held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company pioneering the
discovery and development of first-in-class antibody therapeutics for the treatment of
cancer, autoimmune disorders, and other serious diseases. Leveraging our wholly owned
technologies, we have built a robust R&D pipeline, including two clinical-stage candidates
currently being evaluated across multiple ongoing clinical studies. Our lead clinical
candidate, dibotatug, is designed to induce antibody-mediated killing of a specific cell
type implicated in a range of oncology and autoimmune indications. In addition, we have
launched multiple programs from our proprietary Targeted Myeloid Engager and Phagocytosis
Platform, a multispecific antibody-based technology engineered to selectively engage a novel
phagocytic receptor expressed on myeloid cells (antigen presenting cells) for the targeted
depletion of pathologic cells and other disease-causing agents. Data generated using the
platform support its broad therapeutic potential, including initial programs focused on
oncology, immunology, and neurology. Importantly, multispecific antibodies generated from
the platform are specially designed to activate phagocytic mechanisms only in the presence
of disease targets, potentially offering a superior safety profile compared to other
immunomodulatory therapies. For more information, please visit our website at
