Connect Biopharma (Nasdaq: CNTB) is a global clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to improving the lives of patients with chronic inflammatory diseases through the development of therapies derived from T cell-driven research. With operations and expertise in China, the United States and Australia and clinical development activities in those geographies as well as Europe, Connect Biopharma is building a rich pipeline of internally designed, wholly owned small molecules and antibodies targeting several aspects of T cell biology. Our core expertise is in the use of functional cellular assays with T cells to screen and discover potent drug candidates against immune targets. Our two most advanced clinical-stage programs include highly differentiated product candidates against validated targets.
At Prevail Therapeutics, we are pioneering innovative therapies that aim to cure neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson`s disease. Our mission is to translate breakthrough advances in human genetics and gene therapy technology into life-changing medicines that slow, stop and reverse the neurodegenerative process. Our novel gene therapies target patients with urgent unmet needs, where there are currently no available therapies to change the progressive course of their diseases. Prevail was formed in 2017, and as an emerging biotechnology company, we are growing rapidly. We are building a team of dedicated, creative and talented individuals who share our passion for serving patients with neurodegenerative diseases. We pride ourselves on following great science, and we value collaboration, integrity and agility. We are based in the Alexandria Center for Life Science in New York City.
Arbutus Biopharma Corporation (Nasdaq: ABUS) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company leveraging its extensive virology expertise to develop novel therapeutics that target specific viral diseases. Our current focus areas include Hepatitis B virus (HBV), SARS-CoV-2, and other coronaviruses. To address HBV, we are developing a RNAi therapeutic, an oral PD-L1 inhibitor, and an oral RNA destabilizer to potentially identify a combination regimen with the aim of providing a functional cure for patients with chronic HBV by suppressing viral replication, reducing surface antigen and reawakening the immune system. We believe our lead compound, AB-729, is the only RNAi therapeutic with evidence of immune re-awakening. It is currently being evaluated in multiple phase 2 clinical trials. We also have an ongoing drug discovery and development program directed to identifying novel, orally active agents for treating coronavirus (including SARS-CoV-2). In addition, we are exploring oncology applications for our internal PD-L1 portfolio.
Alucent Biomedical, Inc. is a privately held biotechnology company headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah and is the first company to bring a novel, locally delivered biotechnology treatment to a market traditionally dominated by medical device solutions.
