Axial Biotherapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company harnessing the link between the human gut microbiome and Central Nervous System to develop a new class of therapeutics to improve the quality of life for people with CNS diseases and disorders
BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (www.biorestorative.com) develops therapeutic products using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells. Our two core programs, as described below, relate to the treatment of disc/spine disease and metabolic disorders: • Disc/Spine Program (brtxDISC™): Our lead cell therapy candidate, BRTX-100, is a product formulated from autologous (or a person`s own) cultured mesenchymal stem cells collected from the patient`s bone marrow. We intend that the product will be used for the non-surgical treatment of protruding and bulging lumbar discs in patients suffering from chronic lumbar disc disease. The BRTX-100 production process involves collecting a patient`s bone marrow, isolating and culturing stem cells from the bone marrow and cryopreserving the cells. In an outpatient procedure, BRTX-100 is to be injected by a physician into the patient`s damaged disc. The treatment is intended for patients whose pain has not been alleviated by non-invasive procedures and who potentially face the prospect of surgery. We have received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration to commence a Phase 2 clinical trial using BRTX-100 to treat chronic lower back pain due to degenerative disc disease related to protruding/bulging discs. • Metabolic Program (ThermoStem®): We are developing a cell-based therapy to target obesity and metabolic disorders using brown adipose (fat) derived stem cells to generate brown adipose tissue (“BAT”). BAT is intended to mimic naturally occurring brown adipose depots that regulate metabolic homeostasis in humans. Initial preclinical research indicates that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels. Researchers have found that people with higher levels of brown fat may have a reduced risk for obesity and diabetes.

At VAYA Pharma, we are committed to improving quality of life and delivering products that exemplify our key values. VAYA Pharma`s history of clinical research is based on understanding the potential of the human body in order to reform medicine. Through this research, we have discovered a strong correlation between certain disorders and lipid imbalances in affected individuals. Because of this, VAYA Pharma focuses on developing innovations for the clinical dietary management of disorders that are specifically associated with lipid imbalances. Our products deliver a nutritional based solution that are familiar to the human body and clinically proven to be safe and effective with virtually no side effects. Using lipid-based ingredients, our innovative products address nutritional needs of people with health conditions that cannot be met through modification of diet alone.
