ALSP Inc. (American Life Science Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), is a privately held company based in San Diego, California, developing new small molecule drugs for treating neurodegenerative disease initially focused on traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer`s disease. Our approach is to identify key enzymes in the brain, called proteases, which produce biologically active peptides, proteins or processes that are thought to underlie the disease. We then use those enzymes as targets for screening compounds that inhibit these proteases and thereby prevent the harmful effect caused by these peptides, proteins and processes to treat the disease. By using this innovative process, our goal is ...

Protagonist Therapeutics

Protagonist Therapeutics is a biotechnology company pursuing the discovery and development of target oral peptides as well differentiated alternatives to antibodies, and also as new chemical entities (NCEs) against those targets and life threatening diseases for which suitable small molecule and/or biologic options are not available. Peptides typically suffer from limitations of poor proteolytic stability and therefore find scarce therapeutic utility that is largely limited to ‘injectable drugs’. Protagonist’s technology platform is aimed at overcoming these restrictions and expanding the scope of peptide therapeutics to address unmet needs. Specific emphasis is placed on identifying ‘orally stable’ scaffolds and/or engineering oral stability characteristics onto them. The platform has been optimized over the years and involves synergistic integration of rational drug design, diversity oriented computational tools, phage display libraries, recombinant peptide expression, ex vivo oral stability methods, and peptide/medicinal chemistry techniques. This activity has led to the identification of ‘privileged scaffolds’ with favorable oral stability characteristics. Furthermore, the technology platform is well suited both for de novo discovery against a target and optimization around a given chemical starting point.
