NanoString Technologies (NASDAQ: NSTG) is a publicly held provider of life science tools for translational research. The company`s technology enables a wide variety of basic research and translational medicine applications. NanoString`s products are based on a novel digital molecular barcoding technology invented at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) in Seattle under direction of Dr. Leroy Hood. The company was founded in 2003 with an exclusive license to develop and market the technology. In 2008, NanoString launched its first commercial instrument system and began international sales operations with its first multiplexed assays for gene expression analysis. In 2010, the company launched new applications for the system to support microRNA analysis and copy number variation detection. In 2019, the company launched the GeoMxâ„¢ Digital Spatial Profiler enabling highly-multiplexed spatial profiling of RNA and protein targets in a variety of sample types, including FFPE tissue sections.
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.
ARCA was founded on the belief that a precision medicine approach to drug development, tailoring medical treatment to the individual genetic characteristics of patients, can enable more effective therapies, improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs. ARCA`s lead development program is intended to be a direct implementation of those ideas. Gencaroâ„¢ (bucindolol hydrochloride) is being developed as a potential treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF). ARCA has identified genetic variations in cardiac receptors that we believe may predict individual patient response to Gencaroâ„¢, giving Gencaroâ„¢ the potential to be the first genetically-targeted prevention treatment for AF. ARCA is also developing rNAPc2 as potential treatment for RNA-associated diseases, initially focused on COVID-19.
Modis Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing disease-modifying therapies for rare genetic diseases with high unmet medical need.
