Immatics Biotechnologies is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company leading the development of advanced immunotherapies that are active against cancer. Cancer immunotherapy is still severely constrained by the lack of novel targets. Immatics overcomes this by applying its target discovery engine XPRESIDENT® to identify and validate antigens specific to cancer cells. These antigens, also called Tumor-Associated Peptides (TUMAPs), are able to activate T cells which are responsible for identifying and destroying cancer cells. These well characterized TUMAPs can be used as targets for all of the most promising cancer immunotherapy approaches including Adoptive Cell Therapies (ACT), soluble T Cell Receptors (TCRs), Antibodies and Cancer Vaccines. The US based Immatics US, Inc., launched in Aug. 2015, is focused on the development of three ACT approaches for the treatment of tumors with high unmet medical needs: ACTolog™, ACTengine™, and ACTallo™ in close collaboration with leading scientists at the MD Anderson Cancer Center, who contribute their long-term ACT expertise. The first ACT products are expected to enter the clinic in 2016. Immatics signed a strategic cancer immunotherapy collaboration with Roche in November 2013 to research, develop and commercialize a number of new cancer peptide antigen-based immunotherapies. In addition, Immatics is engaged in the development of soluble T-cell receptor (sTCR) approaches as well as monoclonal antibodies (mABs) directed towards XPRESIDENT® targets. The latter will be pursued in a strategic alliance with MorphoSys. Immatics is further conducting the clinical development of fully personalized therapeutic cancer vaccines, Glioma Actively Personalized VAccine Consortium (GAPVAC; an EU-funded consortium) in collaboration with BioNTech. Immatics GmbH is based in Tübingen, Germany, with a headcount of approximately 90 people. Immatics US, Inc. is based in Houston, Texas, USA, and currently employs approximately 15 people.
Neoleukin Therapeutics emerged from the University of Washington Institute for Protein Design in January of 2019. We are creating next generation immunotherapies using breakthrough de novo protein design technology. We use natural protein complexes as inspiration to develop custom designed proteins with superior pharmaceutical properties.
Agena Bioscience’s scalable MassARRAY System enables one day assay turnaround times on a wide variety of targeted genetic tests.
AmnioLife Corporation is a biotechnology company focused on the development and commercialization of a unique biologic suite of products designed to address unmet and underserved market needs with applications across multiple surgical specialties. We are committed to the development of novel biotechnology and regenerative therapeutics, primarily derived from placental origin. Currently we have filed a US provisional patent application on our core technology, ProLifixTM, an acellular collagen matrix. The Company has over 60 years of experience in biologics manufacturing and comercializaiton, and is led by Chris Broderick who recently launched a neurological tissue transplant technology and was responsible for over $10M in trending global sales.
We are a biotechnology company integrating AI, computation and biological automation to accelerate the design of small molecule and protein therapeutics. Our mission is to decrease the timeline and cost of drug development, while improving the success rate of bring innovative medicines to patients in need.
