Our vision, to disrupt cancer with the development of highly innovative immunotherapies aimed at increasing patient survival rates

PartnerING

MimiVax is improving outcomes and quality of life for those suffering from devastating diseases as well as strengthening the biomedical startup ecosystem of Buffalo, New York.

Pipeline

We’re exploring new ways of stimulating the immune system to fight cancer cells leveraging our proprietary survivin-targeting technology.

Clinical Trials

SurVaxM is presently being studied in glioblastoma (newly diagnosed and recurrent), multiple myeloma and neuroendocrine tumors (NET).

“The Jacobs family has a deep passion for the discovery of new drugs and medical devices that will help ease the suffering and offer improved treatments for patients diagnosed with chronic and terminal diseases.”

Jerry Jacobs Jr

Board of Directors at Mimivax

"Immunotherapy offers great hope for patients with cancer. Advances in this arena will undoubtedly lead to significant improvements in survival, including for those patients with difficult to treat malignancies. Many experts in the field believe that glioblastoma is potentially susceptible to immunotherapy. Here at MimiVax, we have devoted our lives and careers to uncovering the clues that will help make that belief a reality."
