Urigen Pharmaceuticals is a Burlingame, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Eleven Therapeutics is at the forefront of mRNA therapeutics innovation, harnessing combinatorial chemistry, synthetic biology, and artificial intelligence to develop next-generation therapies. The company`s pipeline includes extended-release mRNA therapeutics (xRNA) targeting unmet medical needs in metabolic, hematologic, and infectious disease areas. Proprietary high-throughput screening platforms, TERA™ and DELiveri™, underpin Eleven Therapeutics` pipeline by generating chemically modified xRNAs and cell-penetrating delivery carriers. Founded in 2020 by world-leading scientists across Cambridge (UK), Boston (US), and Tel Aviv (Israel), Eleven Therapeutics is supported by top-tier venture capitalists and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
PURE Bioscience develops and markets technology-based bioscience products that provide solutions to numerous global health challenges. PURE`s proprietary high efficacy/low toxicity bioscience technologies, including its silver dihydrogen citrate (SDC)- based antimicrobials, represent innovative advances in diverse markets and lead today`s global trend toward industry and consumer use of "green" products while providing competitive advantages in efficacy and safety. Patented SDC is an electrolytically generated source of stabilized ionic silver which formulates well with other compounds. As a platform technology, SDC is distinguished from competitors in the marketplace because of its superior efficacy, reduced toxicity and the inability of bacteria to form a resistance to it. PURE is headquartered in El Cajon, California (San Diego metropolitan area).
Tango Therapeutics is a biotechnology company discovering and developing novel medicines targeting cancer vulnerabilities to deliver transformational new therapies for patients. Tango was launched in 2017 with a $55 million Series A investment from Third Rock Ventures. The company has established a robust product engine that leverages advances in DNA sequencing and CRISPR-based target discovery to generate breakthrough medicines that have the potential to provide deeper, more sustained benefit than today`s targeted therapies, and extend the benefit of available immuno-oncology agents. Tango Therapeutics is focused on three areas of drug development, each in well-defined patient populations currently lacking effective treatment options, and each with hallmarks of cancer that have not been targeted yet. These include: loss of tumor suppressor gene function; multiple oncogenic drivers; and immune evasion. What fuels each of Tango`s programs is an increasingly sophisticated ability to utilize synthetic lethality - the interaction between two genes that causes cell death when both are inactivated. In cancer cells, one of these genes is inactivated by mutation; the other will be inactivated by a drug. This approach leaves normal cells largely unaffected, with the potential to greatly enhance anti-tumor efficacy and reduce associated toxicity. Tango`s success will be driven by its depth of understanding of the genetic subtypes of cancer, and corresponding insights into novel drug targets and combinations uniquely relevant to each subtype. By shaping discovery efforts in this way, Tango has the potential to reach the clinic quickly, and with a clear plan for identifying the patients most likely to benefit from each new treatment, an approach that could increase both speed and probability of success in translating novel target discoveries into transformational new medicines for patients.
