Jounce Therapeutics is developing novel cancer immunotherapies with the potential to drive significantly more durable responses to treatment, extending and improving patients' quality of life. Jounce utilizes translational science insights to match the right targets to well defined patient populations in order to achieve a higher probability of success and rapid proof-of-concept. The company is pursuing programs against multiple targets in the T cell checkpoint area, as well as programs beyond T cell checkpoints, where current immunotherapies are less likely to be effective. Founded by world leaders in tumor immunology, cancer biology and clinical and translational medicine, Jounce Therapeutics was launched in 2013 with initial funding from leading life sciences investor, Third Rock Ventures.
