PolarityTE, is the owner of a novel regenerative medicine and tissue engineering platform developed and patented by Denver Lough MD, PhD. This radical and proprietary technology employs a patients` own cells for the healing of full-thickness functionally-polarized tissues. If clinically successful, the PolarityTE platform will be able to provide medical professionals with a truly new paradigm in wound healing and reconstructive surgery by utilizing a patient`s own tissue substrates for the regeneration of skin, bone, muscle, cartilage, fat, blood vessels and nerves. It is because PolarityTE uses a natural and biologically sound platform technology, which is readily adaptable to a wide spectrum of organ and tissue systems, that the company and its world-renowned clinical advisory board, are poised to drastically change the field and future of translational regenerative medicine.
Inovio is a biotechnology company focused on rapidly bringing to market precisely designed DNA medicines to treat, cure, and protect people from diseases associated with HPV, cancer, and infectious diseases. Inovio is the first and only company to have clinically demonstrated that a DNA medicine can be delivered directly into cells in the body via a proprietary smart device to safely produce a robust immune response to destroy and clear high-risk HPV 16 and 18, which are responsible for 70% of cervical cancer, 90% of anal cancer and 69% of vulvar cancer. In addition to HPV, Inovio`s optimized plasmid design and delivery technology have been demonstrated to consistently activate robust and fully functional T cell and antibody responses against targeted cancers and pathogens. Inovio`s most advanced clinical program, VGX-3100, is in Phase 3 development for the treatment of HPV-related cervical pre-cancer. Also in development are Phase 2 immuno-oncology programs targeting HPV-related cancers, GBM, and prostate cancer, as well as externally funded vaccine development programs in Zika, MERS, Lassa, HIV, and COVID-19. Partners and collaborators include Advaccine, ApolloBio Corporation, AstraZeneca, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, GeneOne Life Science, HIV Vaccines Trial Network, Medical CBRN Defense Consortium (MCDC), National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Plumbline Life Sciences, Regeneron, Roche/Genentech, University of Pennsylvania, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, and The Wistar Institute. Inovio also is a proud recipient of 2020 Women on Boards “W” designation recognizing companies with more than 20% women on their board of directors.
NephroGenex is a Princeton, NJ-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Repligen Corporation, a life sciences company, develops, manufactures, and markets consumable bioprocessing products for use in the production of monoclonal antibodies and other biologic drugs. The company manufactures various forms of Protein A, a critical reagent used in biomanufacturing to separate and purify monoclonal antibodies. It also supplies various growth factor products, which are used to increase cell growth and productivity during upstream fermentation. In addition, the company manufactures and sells chromatography products, including OPUS pre-packed columns for biologics purification, as well as proprietary Protein A media and quality test kits. Further, it has a portfolio of therapeutic product candidates, which include RG3039, a small molecule drug candidate in clinical development for spinal muscular atrophy; histone deacetylase inhibitor for the treatment of Friedreich’s ataxia disease; and RG1068, a synthetic human hormone developed as a novel imaging agent for the detection of pancreatic duct abnormalities in combination with magnetic resonance imaging in patients with pancreatitis and other related diseases. Additionally, Repligen Corporation offers alternating tangential flow system, a filtration device used to improve product yields during the fermentation step of the biologic drug manufacturing process. The company sells its bioprocessing products are to various life sciences companies, biopharmaceutical manufacturing companies, and contract manufacturing organizations worldwide. Repligen Corporation was founded in 1981 and is headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts.
It is widely accepted that enzyme delivery technologies are the wave of the future, they require little to no additional energy, they are widely available, and are extremely efficient. However, their use in many of today’s industrial processes is lim...
