FivePrime is discovering and developing novel therapeutic proteins and antibodies by systematically screening all relevant proteins in the human body to find the best protein for treatment of a given clinical indication. FivePrime’s ProScreen Engine enables the rapid production and screening of all therapeutically relevant proteins in medically-focused assays at the highest quality standards in the industry. This powerful approach is the polar opposite of the industry’s traditional “one protein at a time”. The ProScreen Engine comprises the definitive protein collection and screening process for biologics discovery and is unprecedented in its efficiency, quality, and scale.
