CIS Display™ vs. Phage Display: Choosing the Right Fit for VHH or Peptide Discovery
Choosing the right display technology is a critical decision in therapeutic and diagnostic discovery procedures. This article compares CIS Display™ with Phage Display, focusing on their underlying techniques, important benefits, and suitable applications. Read more
NGS in Antibody Discovery: How Deep is Your Sequence?
Next-generation sequencing is redefining antibody discovery. From validating library diversity to uncovering rare binders and powering AI-driven design, NGS offers additional insights that enhance VHH antibody discovery and selection. Read more
Unlocking Hard-to-Drug Targets: How VHH Antibodies Overcome Drug Discovery Barriers
Today, the term ‘undruggable’ is being redefined. Advances in membrane protein solubilization, allosteric modulation, and therapeutic viral vectors have led to proof that these targets can be tackled. Read more
A Competitive and Ethical Future in Discovery
Traditionally, antibody generation relied on immunizing animals (e.g. mice, rabbits, or even llamas) to raise binders against a target antigen. However, emerging synthetic antibody library technologies now allow scientists to bypass animal immunization by using in silico designed vast libraries of human or humanized antibody fragments.
Isogenica named in Business Weekly’s Ones2Watch
Isogenica, a specialist in synthetic VHH antibody discovery, was recognised in the Ones2Watch category for its scientific credibility and commercial momentum.
Building the next generation of precision oncology medicines
Biologic therapies have reshaped oncology, but they come with real limitations. Traditional monoclonal antibodies are large, complex molecules that can struggle with tumor penetration, slow development timelines, and costly manufacturing. In a field where time is critical and healthcare budgets are under increasing pressure, these constraints can hold back promising innovations. Read the article.

White Paper “Data-Driven Validation of Synthetic VHHs”
This white paper provides a data-driven validation of Isogenica’s synthetic VHH libraries, powered by Colibra® technology. Designed for biotech and pharmaceutical scientists, it demonstrates how these libraries enhance and accelerate drug discovery, particularly in oncology and immunotherapy. Download Extending half-lives of VHH antibodies
Because VHHs are small, they can be cleared quickly from the bloodstream. This can be a useful feature for some applications, but often a longer plasma half-life is desirable. DOWNLOADAdvantages of VHH in bi-specifics
To learn more about the application of VHHs in bi-specifics, we have condensed our expertise into a downloadable Application Note. DOWNLOADOptimizing CAR-T and T-cell antibody engagers: a role for VHH single domain antibodies
This whitepaper summarises the clinical and research landscape for CAR-T and T-cell engaging antibody therapies and show how single domain VHH antibodies can be applied to optimise the next generation of these important new therapeutic modalities. DOWNLOADIsogenica’s PD-L1 VHH as Functional Antagonists
PD-1 is an immune checkpoint protein expressed on the surface of multiple types of immune cells, including antigen-stimulated T-cells and tumour specific T-cells1. Interaction between PD-1 and its ligands (PD-L1 or PD-L2), is responsible for the regulation of T-cell activation, apoptosis, proliferation and cytokine production. DOWNLOADAnti-LRP5/6 VHH inhibits WNT pathway and prevents tumour growth
VHH are the variable domain of heavy chain only antibodies. They are small in size (~15 kD) and biophysically robust. With tunable half-lives, these antibodies are ideal for targeting inaccessible epitopes, achieving enhanced tissue penetration, multi-target binding and formatting for payload delivery… DOWNLOAD
