Immunome Appoints Phil Tsai as Chief Technical Officer

Immunome, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMNM), a biotechnology company focused on developing first-in-class and best-in-class targeted cancer therapies, today announced the appointment of Phil Tsai, PhD, as Chief Technical Officer. Dr. Tsai has nearly three decades of experience in product development, process optimization, and manufacturing, particularly in the area of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).

“Immunome is excited to add Phil to our management team as we advance our pipeline of differentiated targeted cancer therapies,” stated Clay Siegall, PhD, President and Chief Executive Officer of Immunome. “With the Phase 3 trial of AL102 for the treatment of desmoid tumors fully enrolled, two IND filings planned for the first quarter of 2025, and additional ADCs in preclinical development, Phil’s technical expertise and leadership will greatly contribute to Immunome’s mission of improving the lives of cancer patients.”

“I am honored to join Immunome as the company continues to expand its portfolio and capabilities,” said Dr. Tsai. “Immunome’s multi-modality approach, combined with its commitment to underexplored targets, provides exciting opportunities to deliver best-in-class and first-in-class therapies, and I look forward to supporting those advancements.”

Prior to joining Immunome, Dr. Tsai spent 21 years at Seagen and then Pfizer (following the acquisition of Seagen in December 2023) in positions of increasing responsibility. Most recently, he was the SVP of Technical Development, responsible for end-to-end development of biologics and drug-linker manufacturing processes, analytics, and drug products. Over the past two decades, he led a productive CMC development organization to advance Seagen’s pipeline, including commercialization of its products. Dr. Tsai began his biotech career at Biogen, where he spent seven years optimizing biologics manufacturing processes.

Dr. Tsai earned his M.S. degree and a PhD in Chemical Engineering with a minor in Biology from California Institute of Technology and a B.S. degree from the University of Illinois, Champaign Urbana.
