Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Immunome is a clinical-stage oncology company focused on discovering and developing targeted cancer therapies for indications with high unmet need. Its stated mission is to improve outcomes for cancer patients by advancing a portfolio of first-in-class and best-in-class therapeutic candidates, with an emphasis on antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).

The company's most advanced programs are varegacestat (formerly AL102), a late-clinical-stage gamma secretase inhibitor for desmoid tumors; IM-1021, a ROR1-targeted ADC in a Phase 1 trial; and IM-3050, a FAP-targeted radioligand that received IND clearance in the first quarter of 2025. Preclinical candidates include IM-1617, IM-1340 and IM-1335, all ADCs directed at undisclosed targets expressed in multiple solid tumors. Immunome states that its team members previously held key roles in the design, development and commercialization of ADCs that are now standard of care in several cancer indications.

Traction

As of 2025, Immunome reported a late-clinical-stage program (varegacestat) in desmoid tumors, a Phase 1 trial of IM-1021, IND clearance for IM-3050 in Q1 2025, and three additional ADC candidates in preclinical development.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market

Market position

The company positions itself around pursuing differentiated and previously difficult targets, holistic optimization of all ADC components rather than individual elements, and a team with prior experience developing and commercializing approved ADCs.

Technology

Immunome's preclinical discovery work centers on antibody-drug conjugates, using a systematic, data-driven process in which each ADC component — antibody, linker and payload — is optimized both individually and in combination for efficacy, tolerability and clinical differentiation. Beyond ADCs, the pipeline includes a small-molecule gamma secretase inhibitor (varegacestat) and a FAP-targeted radioligand (IM-3050).

Go-to-market

Cancer patients, with initial programs addressing desmoid tumors and solid tumors expressing targets such as ROR1 and FAP.
