Scorpion Therapeutics

Scorpion Therapeutics was founded to expand the reach of precision medicine to more people with cancer.

Senda Biosciences

Senda Biosciences, Inc. is uniquely positioned to transform human health by harnessing millions of years of evolution to program targeted, potent and tunable medicines. Nature has provided the codes to program human cells – both within the cell (mRNA), and, remarkably, to the cell - using what surrounds it. The trillions of non-human cells in the human ecosystem have evolved natural nanoparticles that precisely shuttle biomolecules into human cells, providing the missing pieces to fully unlock programmable medicines. Senda`s proprietary platform includes the first-ever atlas of nature-derived programmable systems at the molecular level and across all kingdoms of life – accessing the entire code provided by nature required to program cells. With this platform, Senda is developing a new class of SendRNA™ medicines. The unique properties of these medicines create new frontiers for mRNA therapeutics and vaccines for infectious, genetic, autoimmune, and metabolic diseases and oncology indications – with further potential to transform the gene editing and protein-based therapy landscapes as well. Based in Cambridge, MA, Senda was founded by Flagship Pioneering.

Code Biotherapeutics

Code Bio was founded on the belief that more can be done for people living with debilitating genetic diseases. We are driven by the potential of our transformative technology to treat the untreatable and cure the incurable. Code Bio is developing highly targeted genetic medicines with its proprietary, novel, multivalent, synthetic DNA delivery platform, 3DNA®, which has been engineered to overcome many of the challenges inherent with the delivery of genetic medicines. 3DNA offers unparalleled tissue and cell targeting specificity, improved bioavailability, capability to deliver large genetic payloads, potential ability to re-dose, and a scalable, modular, reproducible manufacturing process. Our 3DNA delivery platform is poised to transform the field of genetic medicines, enabling targeted delivery of gene therapy, RNAi and other genetic modalities. Currently we are advancing an internal pipeline of genetic medicines focused on select diseases without a cure (Duchenne`s Muscular Dystrophy and Type 1 Diabetes), as well as establishing partnerships to take forward programs in both rare and prevalent diseases.
