About
KSQ Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company headquartered in Lexington, Massachusetts. Founded in 2015 and backed by Flagship Pioneering, KSQ has industrialized genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 functional genomic screens (CRISPRomics platform) across cancer models and immune cell types to identify high-confidence therapeutic targets. The company's lead programs are eTIL (engineered Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte) therapies, which knock out SOCS1 and Regnase-1 targets to dramatically boost T cell tumor-killing activity. KSQ has strategic partnerships with Takeda, Ono, and Roche for immuno-oncology programs, and has raised over $156M in funding. The company is advancing multiple eTIL candidates including KSQ-001EX and KSQ-004EX.
