Luminary is a clinical stage CAR-T therapy company with a novel allogeneic manufacturing platform where our CAR and or TCR development utilizes gamma delta cells. What makes our allogeneic therapeutics unique are that our final drug product includes the combinatory power of both the Vẟ1 and Vẟ2 gamma delta cells giving our therapies the power of both innate and adaptive cancer clearing power. We have multiple solid tumor targets under development with a proprietary signaling method to ensure T-Cell persistence. Additionally, our Ligand BAFF CAR for hematologic cancers is designed with 3 antigen receptors specifically designed to overcome antigen escape. For more information visit www.luminarytx.com

About FundedIQ's Luminary Therapeutics Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Luminary Therapeutics is left off this page rather than filled in.
