Crinetics Pharmaceuticals is a clinical stage pharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel therapeutics for rare endocrine diseases and endocrine-related tumors. The company`s lead product candidate, paltusotine (formerly CRN00808), is an investigational, oral, selective nonpeptide somatostatin receptor type 2 biased agonist for the treatment of acromegaly, an orphan disease affecting more than 26,000 people in the United States. A Phase 3 program in acromegaly with paltusotine is underway. Crinetics also plans to advance paltusotine into a Phase 2 trial for the treatment of carcinoid syndrome associated with neuroendocrine tumors. The company is also developing CRN04777, an ...

Omega Therapeutics

Omega Therapeutics is a development-stage biotechnology company pioneering the first systematic approach to use mRNA therapeutics as programmable epigenetic medicines by leveraging its OMEGA Epigenomic Programming™ platform. The OMEGA™ platform harnesses the power of epigenetics, the mechanism that controls gene expression and every aspect of an organism`s life from cell genesis, growth and differentiation to cell death. The OMEGA platform enables control of fundamental epigenetic processes to correct the root cause of disease by returning aberrant gene expression to a normal range without altering native nucleic acid sequences. Omega`s engineered, modular, and programmable mRNA-encoded epigenetic medicines, Omega Epigenomic Controllers™, target specific intervention points amongst the thousands of mapped and validated novel DNA-sequence-based epigenomic loci to durably tune single or multiple genes to treat and cure disease through Precision Genomic Control™. Omega is currently advancing a broad pipeline of development candidates spanning a range of disease areas, including oncology, regenerative medicine, multigenic diseases including immunology, and select monogenic diseases.

Spotlight Therapeutics

Spotlight Therapeutics is a venture funded early-stage biotechnology company with a mission to develop a new class of therapeutics by enabling direct in vivo gene editing. Founded by Alex Marson (UCSF), Jacob Corn (UC Berkeley), and Patrick Hsu (Salk Institute) in December of 2017, Spotlight is building its core technology platform to achieve precise in vivo gene editing in targeted cell populations. With a therapeutic focus centered on oncology, our engineered nucleases edit the genes in targeted disease organs thereby inactivating or altering the gene product. We are hiring rapidly to build out our cutting-edge research and development team. This team is responsible for preclinical development ranging from protein engineering, gene editing to immuno-oncology and in vivo safety studies. Join us and work on the next generation of gene editing therapeutics in a fast-paced and exciting environment.
