Our Story

Our technology was born at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS), where researchers pioneered a non-viral gene-engineering method that functionalise MSCs into therapeutic delivery vehicles. Capitalising on this, the team created their first proof-of-concept product (AGEM-102) to target treatment refractory solid tumours. Compassionate use in veterinary patients (2018 onwards) confirmed the approach could extend life and improve quality of life with minimal side-effects.

In 2024, we spun out as AGEM Bio (Augmented Gene Modification) to translate this platform to human trials. Backed by SGInnovate and anchored at NUS’s E7 biotech incubator, we are now scaling GMP production and building partnerships that will bring precision cell therapies to patients across Asia and beyond.
