The company's operations span multiple therapeutic areas, including oncology, infectious diseases, and autoimmune conditions. Immunocore's headquarters are in the United Kingdom, and it operates in various countries and regions worldwide.

The company's revenue is generated primarily from its ImmTAX platform, which is a proprietary, flexible, and off-the-shelf technology used to develop a deep pipeline of therapeutic candidates. Immunocore's lead product candidate, KIMMTRAK, is a bispecific TCR molecule targeting an HLA-A*02:01 gp100 antigen, which has received approval from the FDA and the EC for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic uveal melanoma. KIMMTRAK is now approved in over 30 countries and has been commercially launched in the United States, Germany, and France. The company's ImmTAX platform offers several advantages, including the ability to access a significantly larger pool of cellular targets, the ability to engineer ImmTAX with million-fold greater affinity and enhanced specificity, and the ability to address a broad range of disease types.

Immunocore's competitive advantages include its ImmTAX platform, which provides a unique approach to treating solid tumors with high unmet medical needs. The company's key competitors include major pharmaceutical, specialty pharmaceutical, and biotechnology companies, academic research institutions, and governmental agencies and public and private research institutions worldwide. However, Immunocore's ImmTAX platform, strategy, and TCR experience provide it with competitive advantages.

Immunocore utilizes a hybrid model, partnering in-house personnel with other field-based personnel providers, and has established partnerships with Syneos Health, Inc. and Medison Pharma Ltd to support its commercial efforts.
