Alector is combining state-of-the-art antibody technology and recent discoveries in neuroimmunology and human genetics to develop novel therapeutics for Alzheimer`s disease, other forms of dementia, and mechanistically related neurodegenerative disorders. Alector`s strategy is to efficiently generate and validate antibody drugs with unique functional properties that engage key disease-altering targets. This approach is enabled by a strategic alliance with Adimab, the industry leader in discovery and optimization of antibody therapeutics. Alector is currently developing leads for 4 major targets and anticipates taking 2 of these through pre-clinical development and IND enabling studies within 24 months. Alector has incorporated a highly integrated and lean biotechnology structure with extensive outsourcing that supports core scientific and management teams.

Discovery Laboratories, Inc. is a specialty biotechnology company focused on advancing a new standard in respiratory critical care. Discovery Labs` technology platform includes its novel proprietary KL4 surfactant, a synthetic, peptide-containing surfactant that is structurally similar to pulmonary surfactant, and its proprietary drug delivery technologies being developed to enable efficient delivery of aerosolized KL4 surfactant and other inhaled therapies. Discovery Labs` strategy is initially focused on neonatology and improving the management of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in premature infants. Discovery Labs believes that its RDS product portfolio has the potential to become the new standard of care for RDS and, over time, enable the treatment of a significantly greater number of premature infants who could benefit from surfactant therapy that are currently not being treated. In many pulmonary diseases, including RDS, acute lung injury (ALI), and other respiratory conditions, surfactant is either deficient or may fail to function properly. Our precision-engineered, peptide-containing KL4 surfactant has been designed to mimic the essential function of human pulmonary surfactant and may have the potential to address conditions such as these. We are developing our proprietary delivery technologies to one day enable efficient, targeted upper-respiratory or alveolar delivery of our KL4 surfactant in aerosolized form to allow for a gentler, less invasive delivery approach. These same delivery systems may also potentially be used to deliver a variety of additional aerosolized medicines safely and in a simplified way compared with the current standard of care.
