NovaTec Consultants, Inc. is a Vancouver, BC-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Stelexis` mission is to become the leading cancer therapeutics company, through the discovery and development of novel drugs, utilizing its proprietary platform to selectively target pre-cancerous stem cells. The company will initially focus on therapeutics for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).
Trevena, Inc. is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that discovers, develops, and intends to commercialize innovative therapies that use a novel approach to target G protein coupled receptors, or GPCRs. We are dedicated to providing value to patients and healthcare providers by improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. We have identified four biased ligand drug candidates: TRV130, an FDA-designated Breakthrough Therapy, is currently in phase 3 testing for the intravenous treatment of acute moderate to severe pain; TRV027 was evaluated in a Phase 2b study for the treatment of acute heart failure; TRV734 has completed phase 1 testing for oral treatment of acute and chronic pain; and TRV250 is in preclinical development for the treatment of migraine. In addition, Trevena has an early stage portfolio of drug discovery programs currently in lead optimization.
Juno Therapeutics is building a fully integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on revolutionizing medicine by re-engaging the body`s immune system to treat cancer. Founded on the vision that the use of human cells as therapeutic entities will drive one of the next important phases in medicine, Juno is developing cell-based cancer immunotherapies based on chimeric antigen receptor and high-affinity T cell receptor technologies to genetically engineer T cells to recognize and kill cancer. Juno is developing multiple cell-based product candidates to treat a variety of B-cell malignancies as well as solid tumors. Several product candidates have shown compelling evidence of tumor shrinkage in clinical trials in refractory leukemia and lymphoma conducted to date. Juno`s long-term aim is to leverage its cell-based platform to develop new product candidates that address a broader range of cancers and human diseases. Juno brings together innovative technologies from some of the world`s leading research institutions, including the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Seattle Children`s Research Institute, and The National Cancer Institute. Juno Therapeutics has an exclusive license to the St. Jude Children`s Research Hospital patented technology for CD19 directed product candidates that use 4-1BB, which was developed by Dario Campana, Chihaya Imai, and St. Jude Children`s Research Hospital.
Genocea is harnessing the power of T cell immunity to develop life-changing vaccines and immunotherapies. While traditional immunotherapy discovery methods have largely used predictive methods to propose T cell targets, or antigens, Genocea has successfully developed ATLAS™, its proprietary technology platform, to identify clinically relevant antigens of T cells based on actual human immune responses. Genocea is currently using ATLAS in immuno-oncology applications to develop neoantigen cancer vaccines, general cancer vaccines and a vaccine targeting cancers caused by Epstein-Barr Virus.
