Gel-Del is a Saint Paul, MN-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Ambrx is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company using an expanded genetic code technology platform to discover and develop next generation antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) and other engineered therapies to modulate the immune system. Ambrx is advancing a focused portfolio of clinical and preclinical programs designed to optimize efficacy and safety in multiple cancer indications. Specifically, ARX517, its proprietary antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) targeting the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and ARX788, its proprietary ADC targeting HER2. Ambrx spun out of The Scripps Research Institute in 2003 and has several other product candidates involving ADCs and other aspects of Ambrx`s protein engineering technology.
Keryx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:KERX) is a team of approximately 200 committed people working with passion to identify meaningful new medicines to advance the care of people with kidney disease. We have assembled a deep concentration of kidney care experts, including nephrologists, renal dietitians, nurses and industry veterans in nephrology. Together, we strive to raise awareness of the kidney disease epidemic, give voice to this underserved population, and help healthcare professionals to improve the care of their patients. In September 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved Keryx`s first medicine, Auryxia® (ferric citrate) tablets. Keryx established its corporate headquarters in Boston`s innovation district to support the U.S. launch of Auryxia. Patients have been and continue to be at the center of our nearly 20 year corporate history.
Elicio is committed to transforming the lives of patients and their families by re-engineering the body`s immune response to cancer. By combining expertise in materials science and immunology, Elicio is engineering potent vaccines and immuno-therapies for an array of aggressive cancers. The Elicio Amphiphile platform enables precise targeting and delivery of immunogens directly to the lymphatic system, the “brain center” of the immune response, to significantly amplify and enhance the body`s own system of defenses, to defeat cancer and stop its recurrence. This substantially enhanced anti-tumor functionality and long-term protective memory could unlock the full potential of the human immune response to eliminate cancer. Elicio`s lead Amphiphile vaccines targeting pancreatic, colorectal, and head and neck cancer will begin initial patient studies in early 2020. Elicio was founded to expand and apply the ground-breaking Amphiphile technology invented and developed in the labs of Darrell Irvine Ph.D., Professor of Biological Engineering and Materials Sciences and Howard Hughes Investigator, at the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that Elicio`s Amphiphile vaccines target and concentrate in the lymph nodes resulting in unprecedented tumor-specific immune responses and durable cures of aggressive tumor models in mice.
Vir brings together cutting-edge innovations with leading scientific expertise and management to take on some of the world`s most challenging infectious diseases for which solutions are non-existent or inadequate. Vir seeks to take a new approach, using breakthroughs in immune programming to manipulate pathogen-host interactions. The company will take a multi-program, multi-platform approach to applying these breakthroughs, guided by rigorous science and driven by medical need.
