Actym Therapeutics has engineered a new drug modality harnessing the power of a genetically modified bacterial vehicle that safely introduces therapeutic payloads to activate the immune response in the tumor microenvironment. To achieve targeted anti-tumor effects, we have developed a systemically administered treatment that exploits intrinsic TME-specific metabolites, enabling selective enrichment of the bacterial vehicle in tumors. After cell-specific entry, our lead candidate, ACTM-838, positively activates tumor-resident myeloid cells and delivers two synergistic payloads, optimized IL-15 and STING, unlocking a comprehensive and durable innate and adaptive anti-tumor immune response. With the ability to tailor our platform utilizing a range of ...

Aravive

Aravive, Inc., is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing new therapies that target important survival pathways for both solid tumors as well as hematologic malignancies. Our primary therapeutic focus is the GAS6-AXL pathway, where AXL receptor signaling plays a critical role in multiple types of malignancies by promoting metastasis and cancer cell survival. Our technology, originated in the laboratories of Drs. Amato Giaccia and his colleagues at Stanford University, uses genetic screening to identify critical targets for the development of therapeutic molecules for cancer therapy while sparing healthy cells. This strategy is designed to enable us to interrupt oncogenic signals and, using our high-affinity decoy receptors, outcompete cancer`s ability to grow, metastasize and acquire resistance to treatments. We believe our unique cancer therapies may hold promise as a monotherapy or in combination with other cancer treatments, augmenting the anti-tumor activity of radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immuno-therapeutics and cancer vaccines. By targeting advanced or metastatic disease, our approach has the potential to significantly improve survival rates while simultaneously reducing toxicity in cancer patients.
