Bio-Path is a biotechnology company developing targeted therapies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and other challenging cancers. The company`s lead product candidate, prexigebersen (Liposomal Grb2 Antisense), formerly BP1001, is currently being assessed in a Phase 2 clinical study in 54 people with previously untreated AML who are not eligible for or who have decided to forego intensive induction therapy because of their age or fragile health.
Midwest AgEnergy Group is a North Dakota biofuels enterprise. Midwest AgEnergy Group owns Blue Flint Ethanol, a 65 million gallon per year biorefinery in operation since 2007 near Underwood, N.D., and Dakota Spirit AgEnergy, a 65 million gallon per year biorefinery east of Jamestown, ND that began production in June 2015. Together with our partners, we are building a renewable energy future for the country, increasing demand for North Dakota farmers, and bringing prosperity to our communities.
Federation Bio is a biotechnology company pioneering a novel approach to create potent, durable and safe cell therapies. The company`s first-in-class platform combines the power of genetic engineering and synthetic consortium design to control systemic immune responses and broad metabolic functions. Federation Bio`s pipeline addresses a range of serious illnesses from metabolic disorders to metastatic cancer. The company`s lead program is in enteric hyperoxaluria, a serious renal condition that affects more than 250,000 Americans and for which there are currently no approved therapies.

BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (www.biorestorative.com) develops therapeutic products using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells. Our two core programs, as described below, relate to the treatment of disc/spine disease and metabolic disorders: • Disc/Spine Program (brtxDISC™): Our lead cell therapy candidate, BRTX-100, is a product formulated from autologous (or a person`s own) cultured mesenchymal stem cells collected from the patient`s bone marrow. We intend that the product will be used for the non-surgical treatment of protruding and bulging lumbar discs in patients suffering from chronic lumbar disc disease. The BRTX-100 production process involves collecting a patient`s bone marrow, isolating and culturing stem cells from the bone marrow and cryopreserving the cells. In an outpatient procedure, BRTX-100 is to be injected by a physician into the patient`s damaged disc. The treatment is intended for patients whose pain has not been alleviated by non-invasive procedures and who potentially face the prospect of surgery. We have received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration to commence a Phase 2 clinical trial using BRTX-100 to treat chronic lower back pain due to degenerative disc disease related to protruding/bulging discs. • Metabolic Program (ThermoStem®): We are developing a cell-based therapy to target obesity and metabolic disorders using brown adipose (fat) derived stem cells to generate brown adipose tissue (“BAT”). BAT is intended to mimic naturally occurring brown adipose depots that regulate metabolic homeostasis in humans. Initial preclinical research indicates that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels. Researchers have found that people with higher levels of brown fat may have a reduced risk for obesity and diabetes.
