Based in Boston, Massachusetts, Elicio Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing lymph node-targeting Amphiphile technology to create novel immunotherapies for aggressive cancers. The pre-revenue biotechnology firm focuses on engineering specialized immunomodulators, adjuvants, and therapeutic vaccines, primarily advancing its lead clinical candidate, ELI-002, which specifically targets mKRAS-driven tumors. Operating without current commercial product revenues, the enterprise funds its oncology research pipeline through a combination of private and public market equity financings, strategic partnering transactions, and government grants. The organization's strategic direction and clinical development are guided by key industry figures including Chief Executive Officer Robert Connelly, who joined the firm in October 2018, Board Chairman Julian Adams, and Board Director Jay Venkatesan.
