Effector Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on pioneering the discovery and development of a new class of oncology drugs known as selective translation regulators (STRs). Translation is the process in cells whereby information in genetic sequences is used to direct synthesis of proteins. Each of eFFECTOR’s product candidates is designed to act on a single protein that regulates, in a coordinated manner, the expression of multiple functionally related proteins that together drive important biological processes such as immune evasion, stress and inflammatory responses. In cancer, the tightly controlled translation of specific proteins becomes dysregulated, leading to malignancy characterized by uncontrolled growth, immune evasion and metastases. eFFECTOR believes that its therapeutic approach can restore the translational control of processes which tumors have hijacked for their benefit, while preserving normal cell function.
BioElectron is a platform biotechnology company, with expertise in the electron transfer (redox) chemical reactions that underpin oxidative stress and inflammation in all biological systems.
Just. is an integrated design company focused on the technology of biotherapeutics, from molecule to manufacturing plant. We believe that technological innovation will accelerate biotherapeutic development and dramatically reduce the cost of these vital medicines.
STIMIT`s proprietary technology enables extended local delivery of cancer immunotherapy in the context of tumor resection, the standard of care for most patients with solid tumors. Concentrating and retaining the action of potent immunomodulators locally dramatically improves the efficacy and safety of these compounds relative to administration in solution, whether via intravenous or even intratumoral injection.
