Cardiome Pharma Corp. is a Vancouver, BC-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Actym Therapeutics has engineered a new drug modality harnessing the power of a genetically modified bacterial vehicle that safely introduces therapeutic payloads to activate the immune response in the tumor microenvironment. To achieve targeted anti-tumor effects, we have developed a systemically administered treatment that exploits intrinsic TME-specific metabolites, enabling selective enrichment of the bacterial vehicle in tumors. After cell-specific entry, our lead candidate, ACTM-838, positively activates tumor-resident myeloid cells and delivers two synergistic payloads, optimized IL-15 and STING, unlocking a comprehensive and durable innate and adaptive anti-tumor immune response. With the ability to tailor our platform utilizing a range of payload combinations, we aim to achieve a new level of therapeutic impact for cancer patients across multiple tumor types.
CENTOGENE - transforming genetic data into medical decisions. We are one of the worldwide leaders in the field of early genetic diagnostics for rare hereditary diseases. A data repository of genetic data from over 115 countries gives us a unique access to epidemiological, clinical and genetic information on hereditary disorders, including oncogenetic indications. We focus exclusively on providing the highest quality, patient-centred service, verified by multiple international accreditations (ISO, CAP, CLIA), regular pharmaceutical audits and our outstanding short turn-around times for analysis. We believe our medical expertise is based on cutting-edge technologies including whole exome/genome sequencing, innovative biomarkers and continued R&D. Our mutation database (CentoMD®) is the worlds largest for rare genetic diseases and is pivotal to our high-quality diagnostic reporting and comprehensive medical interpretation. CENTOGENE is a key partner for many high-profile pharmaceutical companies who are active in the orphan drug development.
