 PROFILE
Cancer and other diseases had better beware -- Antigenics is packing heat. The biotech firm is developing heat shock proteins, which studies have shown are related to the immune system's response to disease. Its lead drug candidate, Oncophage, is in development for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and sarcoma, as well as renal, pancreatic, and other cancers. Working on the theory that each person's cancer has a unique signature, the patient-specific vaccine is derived from the cancerous tumor after it has been surgically removed. Subsidiary Aquila Biopharmaceuticals also focuses on regulating the immune system to treat cancer and infectious diseases. Chairman and CEO Garo Armen owns more than 40% of the firm.
