Quadrant Biosciences is an epigenetic diagnostics company with a focus on the early detection of neurological disorders and other large-scale health issues. Revolutionary advancements in the early detection of autism spectrum disorder, Parkinson’s disease, and mTBI, through the application of the Clarifi® epigenetic diagnostic platform, could have a significant impact on the way clinicians approach the diagnosis and treatment of these serious conditions. In March 2020, we made the decision to pivot and allocate some of our resources to directly address the pandemic. By leveraging our expertise in RNA analysis, we have been able to be part of three exciting COVID-19 projects to aid in the detection of COVID-19 in individuals and communities across the U.S.
Novan, Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on leveraging nitric oxide`s natural antiviral and immunomodulatory mechanisms of action to treat dermatological and oncovirus-mediated diseases. We believe that our ability to conveniently deploy nitric oxide in a solid form, on demand and in localized formulations allows us the potential to significantly improve patient outcomes in a variety of diseases.
TCR² Therapeutics Inc. is a clinical-stage immunotherapy company developing the next generation of novel T cell therapies for patients suffering from cancer. TCR²`s proprietary T cell receptor (TCR) Fusion Construct T cells (TRuC-T cells) specifically recognize and kill cancer cells by harnessing signaling from the entire TCR, independent of human leukocyte antigens (HLA). In preclinical studies, TRuC-T cells have demonstrated superior anti-tumor activity compared to chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells), while exhibiting lower levels of cytokine release.
XOMA is a late-stage biotechnology company with a diverse portfolio of innovative therapeutic antibodies. The Company has built an expertise in allosteric modulation and has applied that expertise to expand the therapeutic potential of monoclonal antibodies. The first compound from XOMA’s allosteric modulating antibody program is gevokizumab, an IL-1 beta modulating antibody. XOMA has partnered with SERVIER, a global pharmaceutical company based in France, to develop and commercialize gevokizumab for the global market, and the companies are conducting a global Phase 3 program in people with Behçet’s disease uveitis and non-infectious uveitis. Each company also has a proof-of-concept (POC) clinical program in place to identify other IL-1 mediated diseases that could be treated with gevokizumab. One of these POC studies led XOMA to select its next Phase 3 indication, pyoderma gangrenosum, a rare ulcerative skin disease. XOMA`s scientific research also produced the XMet program, which consists of three classes of preclinical allosteric modulating antibodies, including Selective Insulin Receptor Modulators (SIRMs) that could have a major impact on the treatment of diabetes. XOMA will retain the compound that has potential to treat several rare insulin dysfunction-related diseases and to out-license the compounds that could address the diabetes markets.
