Description: ELTX Elicio Therapeutics January 18, 2026
Elicio Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ELTX) is a Boston-based clinical-stage biotech focused on lymph-node-targeted amphiphile (AMP) peptide vaccines for cancer. Its lead candidate, ELI-002, is in a Phase II trial targeting seven KRAS driver mutations. Preclinical programs include ELI-007 for BRAF-mutant tumors and ELI-008 for TP53-mutant cancers.
As of the latest Q2 2024 filing, ELTX reported $48 million of cash and equivalents, providing roughly 10 months of runway at its current burn rate of $5 million per quarter. The cancer immunotherapy market is projected to exceed $200 billion by 2028, driven by increasing FDA support for personalized vaccines and a growing pipeline of combination-therapy trials. Elicio’s AMP platform differentiates itself by delivering antigens directly to lymph nodes, a mechanistic advantage that could improve response rates relative to conventional peptide vaccines.
