**ABOUT AMUNIX**

+ Amunix is a Sanofi Center of Excellence that is leveraging our expertise in precision protein engineering to enable the promise of T cell engagers and cytokines in solid tumors. Our goal is to improve the lives of people with cancer in pursuit of cures through the development and commercialization of breakthrough therapies that harness the immune system. We have designed XTEN, a validated therapeutic half-life extension technology. Our current focus is Pro-XTEN, a next-generation protease activated pro-drug platform, which enables selective activation of potent cancer therapies in the tumor microenvironment. This overcomes a common challenge facing potent immune system activators: on-target, off-tumor toxicity. Amunix's lead programs employ the Pro-XTEN technology to enhance the safety profile of T cell engagers. XPATs (XTENylated Protease-Activated T Cell Engagers) have the potential to make off-the-shelf therapies redirecting T cells to solid tumors a reality.
