Pipeline

First-in-class programmes on biologically relevant and disease-driving modes of action

QUANTRO´s transcriptomic screenings identify innovative first-in-class chemistry, creating functionally validated hit libraries. Selected compounds pass further evaluation, then progress to hit-to-lead optimisation, onward characterisation, and ultimately clinical development.

The pipeline

Programmes and current stage

QUANTRO´s proprietary pipeline is created from functionally validated hit libraries discovered by our proprietary transcriptomic drug discovery engine.

All internal and partnered programmes are based on proprietary chemistry of hits that are functionally validated with confirmed, target-specific transcriptional response.

YAP/TEAD Lead programme
Hit-to-lead
TEAD co-crystal

Functionally validated TEAD inhibitors advancing through hit-to-lead optimisation

QUANTRO has built a proprietary, functionally validated hit library of potent, selective TEAD inhibitors. The most advanced hit clusters are progressing through hit-to-lead optimisation, including covalent TEAD inhibitors with binding to TEAD1 confirmed by co-crystal structure.

Priority programme
Hit validation

Proprietary, functionally validated hit library

QUANTRO has created a proprietary library of MYC hits functionally validated by SLAMseq® and confirmed across the full transcriptome. The hits produce a clean, selective effect on the MYC transcriptional fingerprint and include a mechanistically novel series. Further hit generation and validation are ongoing.

Partnered programme

Oncology collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim

Since 2022, QUANTRO and Boehringer Ingelheim have been working together to discover first-in-class compounds against selected cancer-associated transcription factors.

2022

Collaboration launched

2024

Technical proof of concept

2025

Two-year extension

~€500 million estimated deal value

Success-based milestone potential

The collaboration applies QUANTRO’s platform to high-throughput screening and functional hit validation. After technical proof of concept and a major screening campaign, the partners extended the programme in October 2025. QUANTRO retains its platform and internal programmes outside the collaboration.

Pipeline expansion

Expanding QUANTRO’s target space

QUANTRO is building indication-focused multiplex panels that combine new targets with established transcriptional fingerprints across oncology, autoimmunity and inflammation.

Indication map. Indication panels are marked on a human figure, each combining new transcriptional targets with established ones: breast, lung, ovarian, neuroblastoma, prostate, lymphoma & b-cell autoimmunity. Select any indication below for its target list.

Breast
Lung
Ovarian
Neuroblastoma
Prostate
Lymphoma & B-cell autoimmunity

Breast

The planned breast cancer panel combines lineage-specific targets with established transcriptional programmes relevant to tumour growth and progression.

New targets
FOXA1GATA3
Established targets
MYBL2MYCp53

Lung

QUANTRO is expanding its lung cancer coverage with additional transcriptional targets alongside established fingerprints already represented in the platform.

New targets
ASCL1SOX2KEAP1
Established targets
MYCKRASp53

Ovarian

The ovarian cancer panel builds on broad existing pathway coverage while adding a lineage-associated transcriptional target.

New target
PAX8
Established targets
MYCKRASYAPp53

Neuroblastoma

Neuroblastoma represents a new indication-focused panel centred on transcriptional dependencies associated with tumour identity and development.

New targets
MYCNASCL1GATA3

Prostate

The prostate cancer panel combines disease-specific transcriptional drivers with established MYC and p53 coverage.

New targets
AR-V7FOXA1TMPRSS2–ERGASCL1
Established targets
MYCp53

Lymphoma & B-cell autoimmunity

This panel extends QUANTRO’s platform beyond solid tumours into B-cell biology. It focuses on lineage-defining transcription factors with opportunities across haematological oncology and B-cell-mediated autoimmune disease.

New targets

Established targets
MYCp53

Partnering

QUANTRO is your strategic partner of choice for transcriptomic drug discovery

Pioneering time-resolved transcriptomics, we identify first-in-class assets against your most difficult and undruggable targets. Reliably, with precision and speed, we open access to the high-value, largely unexploited target space of transcription factors.
