This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. But it is subject to change as our understanding of the facts evolves.
TScan Therapeutics Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company whose core research and development activities rely on animal testing. The company develops T cell receptor-engineered T cell therapies for cancer, a process that necessitates extensive preclinical studies in animal models to evaluate safety and efficacy. This places the company's operations within the scope of commercial animal exploitation.
The company is explicitly listed by Cruelty Free Investors among "Companies That Exploit Animals" for animal testing. While specific details regarding the scale, species, or protocols of TScan's animal use are not publicly disclosed in the gathered evidence, its inclusion on this list indicates its research model is dependent on animal experimentation. The "Animal Rule" regulatory pathway referenced in industry data, which allows for animal studies to support drug approval when human trials are not ethical or feasible, is relevant to the development of its therapies.

The Naughty List
A digest of changes to our exclusion list — new additions, removals, and the evidence behind them. We review the list continuously as new evidence surfaces.
Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.
This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
