(Nasdaq: DCOY) (Decoy, or the Company), a preclinical biopharmaceutical that is engineering the next generation of peptide conjugate therapeutics, today announced that it participated in a Virtual Investor "What This Means" segment highlighting the Company's recently announced Global Access Commitment Agreement (GACA) with the Gates Foundation.
The "What This Means" segment provides additional context on Decoy's plans to develop a flexible, globally accessible, and scalable manufacturing platform for peptide-conjugate antivirals, a key funded development under the Company's agreement with the Gates Foundation. The platform is designed to enable rapid, cost-efficient manufacturing and scale-up of therapeutics developed through Decoy's proprietary IMP3ACT™ platform, with a focus on expanding access in low- and middle-income countries. As part of the segment, Peter Marschel, Chief Business Officer of Decoy, discussed how the Company's "design-for-manufacturing" approach supports the rapid transition of peptide-conjugate therapeutics from laboratory development to commercial-scale production and is designed to enable a distributed global manufacturing network capable of responding to emerging viral threats. The platform will be validated using Decoy's intranasal pan-coronavirus fusion inhibitor, which is funded under the same Gates Foundation grant. Access the "What This Means" segment here.
