Mechanism of action

TA-CIN is targeted at patients with cervical dysplasia (pre-invasive cervical disease), thus potentially preventing the onset of invasive cervical cancer. The initial product candidate for clinical trials is a genetically engineered fusion of three proteins from HPV 16 known to play a role in the progression of cervical disease.
