Coeptis' product portfolio is highlighted by a cell therapy technology (CD38-GEAR-NK) and an in vitro diagnostic (CD38-Diagnostic) targeting CD38-related cancers, which the company is co-developing with VyGen-Bio, Inc. and its scientific co-founder, Arnika Wagner, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Karolinska Institutet. CD38-GEAR-NK is a natural killer (NK) cell-based investigational therapeutic engineered to enable combination therapy with anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). CD38-Diagnostic is an investigational in vitro screening tool to potentially pre-determine which cancer patients are most likely to benefit from targeted anti-CD38 mAb therapies, either as monotherapy or in combination with CD38-GEAR-NK.
"The discovery and development of our CD38-GEAR-NK and CD38 Diagnostic platforms are a direct result of Professor Ljunggren, Dr. Alici, and Dr. Wagner, and the groundbreaking research they are leading at the Karolinska Institutet," said David Mehalick, President and CEO of Coeptis Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. "The impressive body of work that they have spearheaded serves to strengthen Coeptis' commitment to finding effective treatments for deadly cancers, and their service on our Scientific Advisory Board helps assure that our development programs will be on cutting edge of biotechnology innovation."

On the podcast, the pair discuss how NK cells function and what makes them so effective in treating cancers.
Drs. Ljunggren and Dr. Alici also serve as co-Managing Directors for NextGenNK, the international Competence Center for the development of next-generation NK cell-based cancer immunotherapies. The Center is coordinated by Karolinska Institutet and collaborates with the Karolinska University Hospital and prominent national and international partners.
