Discover Serendip’s VLP technology

In close licensing partnership with our collaborators, we are committed to the success of their drug development programs by harnessing cutting-edge plant-based technology and natural bioreactors.

By enhancing stability, enabling targeted delivery, and ensuring efficient bioproduction, we help maximize the activity, safety, and economic viability of their drug candidates.

EFFICACY

Optimized half-life

Drug protection

 

Optimized activity

Drug concentration and specific delivery

 

Preventive immunization

B-cell response (against specific virus or bacteria)

 

Therapeutic immunization

Unique VLP for T-cell response (against specific tumor)

SAFETY

Reduced toxicity

Low dose concentration,

no off-target effect,

low reactogenicity

 

Human pathogen-free

No human pathogens are

introduced in the

plant-based bioreactors

 

Diluted impurities

Efficacy of the product at

low dose concentration,

so dilution is possible

 

Biocompatibility

The particle (VLP) is made

of degradable proteins

COST-EFFECTIVENESS

Fast-to-test

Quick screening method

(up to 8 weeks from ideation)

Based on different VLPs, codon optimization, protein design optimization, etc.

 

Fast-to-develop and produce

Bioprocess platform is developed.

Molecule-specific process quick to be adjusted.

 

Optimized cost of goods, CoGs

Reduced usage of single-use consumables, cheap raw materials, fast manufacturing process (up to 6 weeks)

"A unique biotech platform that not only optimizes the efficacy and safety of drug products, but also integrates environmental and economic impacts into every step." Alexandre HILL, CEO

A wide range of applications in the pharmaceutical industry starting with

therapeutic cancer vaccination
