At MELA Sciences, we design and develop innovative software-driven medical technologies for physician clinical use during the detection of skin cancers at the most curable and cost-effective stages. Our mission is to develop breakthrough medical technologies to improve skin cancer detection and achieve better outcomes for all. We envision a world in which our pioneering innovations will change the way patients think about skin cancer, while providing dermatologists and clinicians with new, effective, non-invasive tools for the earliest detection possible. MELA Sciences conducted the largest, positive prospective study ever done on the melanoma disease, and is the first and only medical technology company to receive both FDA Pre-Market Approval (PMA) for the U.S. and CE Marking certification for the European Union for a device of this nature. The company’s flagship product, MelaFind®, is intended to provide dermatologists with software-driven image analysis of clinically atypical pigmented skin lesions when they choose to obtain additional information to help decide whether to biopsy or not. The FDA has approved MELA Sciences’ MelaFind® Pre-Market Approval application for use in the United States and MELA Sciences has also been granted CE Mark approval for sale of MelaFind® in the European Union.
Surface Oncology is a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company focused on using its specialized knowledge of the biological pathways critical to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) for the development of next-generation therapies to help patients suffering with cancer. Recent advances in understanding how the immune system fights cancer has created a first wave of immunotherapies with profound benefits for some patients. These first-generation therapies, or "checkpoint inhibitors", have been groundbreaking, but only a relatively small subset of patients is deriving long-term benefit. We believe that the lack of a broad and sustained clinical response is because these first-generation therapies only target one component of the immunosuppressive TME and a broader, more multi-faceted therapeutic approach is required. We are a team on a mission to deliver transformative outcomes for people with cancer by breaking through the frontiers of immuno-oncology research. Our diverse clinical and preclinical pipeline of immune-enhancing antibody candidates target the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system to deliver dramatically different therapies for patients and their families. Surface is leveraging its deep understanding of TME biology to target factors and cells that suppress patients’ anti-tumor immune response. Our broad attack on the TME has the potential to convert patients’ non-responsive ‘cold’ tumors into immune-active ones. We push ourselves to break through across all dimensions of our work. From a discovery perspective, Surface leverages its world-class SAB to identify new targets and takes an aggressive approach towards generating diverse, highly-specific antibodies, which allows our scientists to thoroughly explore the relevant biology. Our antibody discovery approach generates therapeutic-quality antibodies, as well as unique tools to explore the biology of the tumor microenvironment.
