Replimune is creating a new class of oncolytic immunotherapy designed to ignite a powerful immune response to treat cancer and vaccinate against future relapse. Replimune`s mission is to revolutionize cancer treatment with therapies designed to activate a powerful and durable full-body anti-tumor response. Replimune is pioneering the development of novel tumor-directed oncolytic immunotherapies. We imagine a world where cancer is a curable disease.
Previously Mr. Lerner has served as Vice President of Engineering and Technology for both Image Sensing Systems, Inc. and Telex Communications, Inc.
NantKwest is a pioneering, next generation, clinical-stage immunotherapy company focused on harnessing the unique power of our immune system using natural killer (NK) cells to treat cancer, infectious diseases and inflammatory diseases. NK cells are the body’s first line of defense due to the innate ability of NK cells to rapidly identify and destroy cells under stress, such as cancer or virally-infected cells.
Vor Biopharma is pioneering engineered hematopoietic stem cells (eHSCs) to dramatically change the treatment paradigm for hematological cancers. Vor`s eHSCs are designed to generate healthy, fully functional cells with specific advantageous modifications, for example to protect the blood and bone marrow from the toxic effects of antigen-targeted therapies, protecting healthy cells from depletion but leaving tumor cells vulnerable. Vor`s platform could potentially be used to change the treatment paradigm of both hematopoietic stem cell transplants and antigen-targeted therapies such as antibody drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies and CAR-T cell treatments. A proof-of-concept study for Vor`s lead program has been published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Vor is based in Cambridge, Mass. and has a broad intellectual property base including in-licenses from Columbia University, where foundational work was conducted by inventor and Vor Scientific Board Chair Siddhartha Mukherjee, MD, DPhil. Vor was founded by Dr. Mukherjee and PureTech Health and is supported by leading investors including 5AM Ventures and RA Capital Management, Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JJDC, Inc. (JJDC), Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research and Osage University Partners.
Left unchecked, two base rats, a male and a female, can result in 15,000 descendants in about 12 months. It`s easy to see how quickly this can lead to infestations and even population rebounds if just two rats are left behind after a knockdown program. That`s where we come in. We`re SenesTech, the rat fertility experts and the makers of ContraPest®, the first and only EPA-registered rat fertility restrictor impacting both male and female rats. We make it possible to target both ends of the lifecycle—birth and death—by adding fertility control to your integrated pest management (IPM) solution. Controlling the birth rate with ContraPest will magnify the success of your existing IPM protocols. ContraPest is the one-of-a-kind, innovative technology that targets the reproductive capabilities of both male and female Norway and roof rats. Sweet and fatty, it`s highly palatable like a “milkshake” rats can`t get enough of. By using ContraPest, you can reduce the rat population and keep it down because ContraPest works!
