Arsanis is a leader in the discovery and development of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for the targeted immunotherapy of serious infections. Monoclonal antibodies have transformed the treatment of a wide range of diseases from cancer to immune system disorders. In infectious diseases, mAbs can target directly specific pathogens or their virulence mechanisms to avoid pathogenic processes in the infected individual, including resistant strains that give rise to serious infections. Unlike traditional antimicrobials that often target both pathogenic and non-pathogenic organisms in a non-specific way (e.g., broadly killing all Gram-positive bacteria), Arsanis` monoclonal antibodies selectively focus on specific pathogens and pathogenic processes. These targeted immunotherapies address critical infections while minimizing the collateral damage from antimicrobial overuse, resistance, and microbiome disruption. We believe that the ability to selectively and safely target causative pathogens provides a new way of preventing and treating infections in high-risk patients, and can generate both clinical and health economic benefits to patients and providers, ushering in a new era in infection prevention and management.
The Regenexx Procedures are a family of non-surgical stem cell and blood platelet treatments for common injuries and degenerative joint conditions, such as osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis. These stem cell procedures utilize a patient’s own stem c...
ALERT Life Sciences Computing is a Reston, VA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
The Rare Cancer Research Foundation (RCRF) is dedicated to curing rare cancers through strategic investments and innovative collaborations that catalyze effective research and accelerate deployment of promising therapies. While rare cancers accounted for just over 25 percent of all new cancer diagnoses in 2013, they comprised more than 40 percent of all cancer deaths. RCRF`s goal is to develop research infrastructure for each rare cancer.
Driven by world class scientists and an entrepreneurial culture focused on rigorous science, innovative treatments, and data-driven decision making, we discover and develop medicines that have the potential to alter the treatment landscape and contribute value to patients and society. The company has developed a unique drug discovery approach, ImmunoPhage™️, that generates powerful and specific immune responses. Its most advanced program, SNS-301, is currently enrolling patients in Phase 1/2 clinical trials.
