We are The Machine Learning Immunology Company. Seismic Therapeutic is a biotechnology company integrating machine learning across the entire biologics drug discovery and development process. Using our IMPACT™ platform, we are fully integrating machine learning with the key elements of biologics drug discovery – structural biology, protein engineering and translational immunology – to create optimized therapies for patients. Seismic Therapeutic has an emerging pipeline of novel approaches to address adaptive immune system dysregulation to treat autoimmune diseases. The company is backed by a strong syndicate of life sciences investors and is located in the Boston biotechnology hub.
Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing small molecule therapeutics targeting fundamental biological pathways of cancers. The Company is developing a broad pipeline of potentially best-in-class oncology candidates, including ZN-c5, an oral selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD) for ER+/HER2- breast cancer, ZN-c3, a WEE1 inhibitor, ZN-d5, a BCL-2 inhibitor and ZN-e4, an EGFR inhibitor. Zentalis has operations in both New York and San Diego.
Frontier Medicines is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing breakthrough medicines that redefine the course of debilitating diseases. According to the American Cancer Society, 1,762,000 new cancer cases and 607,000 deaths from cancer are expected to occur in the US in 2019. Our focus is developing treatments against important cancer-causing proteins that the biopharma industry hasn`t found a way to treat (or “drug”) with pharmaceutical interventions. After decades of research, this has become one of the most critical challenges in addressing human disease and advancing oncology therapy --central to the research at Frontier Medicines. Frontier Medicines is using chemoproteomics – an innovative approach to chemically interrogate proteins in living systems – to discover and pharmacologically target new binding pockets (or “hotspots”) on proteins, making them accessible to small-molecule drug discovery and development. The company`s proprietary chemoproteomics platform also integrates advanced computational approaches and machine learning to further accelerate the path to drug discovery.
Crown bioscience is a Santa Clara, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Exelixis, Inc., from the Greek word for “evolution,” is a biopharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing small molecule therapies with the potential to improve the treatment of cancer. Over the past decade, we have established a broad development platform, laying the foundation for our continued efforts to bring new therapies for cancer to patients in need. The history of our lead compounds, cabozantinib and cobimetinib, tells the story of our evolution as a company. Each of these compounds were discovered in our own laboratories and advanced by us into clinical development. In addition, we have leveraged our earlier stage drug discovery and development capabilities to establish multiple partnerships and collaborations with leading pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical partners. These alliances are designed to advance the development of multiple Exelixis-discovered therapies, and allow Exelixis to focus on maximizing the potential of cabozantinib. Exelixis has worldwide rights to cabozantinib, which we believe could have the potential to treat a wide variety of cancers. Cabozantinib received its initial regulatory approval for a single indication in 2012, and is marketed for that indication under the trade name COMETRIQ®. Cabozantinib is also the subject of a broad, global clinical development program that includes approximately 45 ongoing or planned clinical trials. Exelixis is the sponsor of two active global, randomized phase 3 pivotal trials: the METEOR trial in metastatic renal cell carcinoma, for which positive top-line results were announced in July 2015, and the CELESTIAL trial in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Founded and incorporated in 1994, Exelixis is headquartered in South San Francisco, California. We are committed to excellence in all aspects of our business and are dedicated to improving the care of, and outcomes for, patients with cancer.
