Alzheon, Inc. is committed to developing innovative medicines by directly addressing the underlying pathology of devastating neurodegenerative disorders.
resTORbio, Inc. is a clinical stage company, developing medicines to treat aging-related diseases and conditions. resTORbio`s lead program targets the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway to treat aging-related diseases and conditions. Initially, resTORbio is focused on developing medicines that address conditions caused by immunosenescence, the decline in immune function due to aging. resTORbio has initiated a Phase 2b trial for its lead product candidate, RTB101, evaluating its potential to reduce the incidence of respiratory tract infections (RTI) in elderly individuals at increased risk of RTI-related morbidity and mortality. resTORbio`s lead program is built upon two Phase 2a clinical studies demonstrating promising safety and efficacy results in almost 500 elderly individuals.
Exicure is developing a new class of immunomodulatory and gene silencing drugs against validated targets. Our 3-dimensional, spherical nucleic acid (SNA™) architecture unlocks the potential of nucleic acid therapeutics in multiple organs. Our lead programs address diseases from inflammatory disorders to oncology. SNA constructs overcome one of the most difficult obstacles to nucleic acid therapeutics: safe and effective delivery into cells and tissues. SNA constructs exhibit unparalleled transfection efficiency into numerous cell and tissue types including the skin without carriers or transfection agents. Moreover, SNAs can be used as potent immunotherapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer or infectious disease.
