NextCure is a fully integrated biotechnology company discovering and developing first-in-class immunotherapy-based biologics for cancer and other diseases. The company is focused on understanding biological pathways and leveraging our FIND-IOTM technology to discover, validate and build a proprietary pipeline. We believe identifying and targeting immune pathways will promote identification of effective targets for mediating sustained immunity leading to improved outcomes for cancer patients.
Viracta is focused on advancing a proprietary viral gene activation therapy to address cancers associated with the Epstein-Barr Virus, and will pursue opportunities to address other serious virus-associated disease.
Bamboo was formed to advance the work of Dr. Richard Jude Samulski, the Director of the Gene Therapy Center at the University of North Carolina (UNC), from the laboratory into human clinical trials where it could meet the requirements for drug approval. Dr. Samulski is a pioneer in the field of gene therapy. Over thirty (30) years ago, Dr. Samulski was the first person to realize the potential to use the adeno-associated virus (AAV) as a vehicle to replace a defective gene with a healthy gene. Since that time, he has re-engineered the naturally occurring virus to target delivery to certain tissues, de-target other tissues, and improve its safety. This has resulted in over twenty (20) patents related to the use of AAV for therapeutic uses. Dr. Samulski continues to lead innovation in the field of vector optimization and AAV re-engineering.
