Spectrex Corp is a Redwood City, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Sana Biotechnology is focused on utilizing engineered cells as medicines for patients. The ability to modify genes and use cells as medicines will be one of the most important advances in healthcare over the next several decades. Sana is building differentiated capabilities across the spectrum of cell and gene therapy. Three aspirations drive Sana as we look to discover treatments for patients with poor outcomes or currently untreatable diseases. The first is the ability to repair and control the genes in any cell in the body. We are advancing novel delivery technologies with the goal of being able to deliver any payload to any cell in a specific, predictable, and repeatable manner, paving the way for next-generation in vivo gene therapy. Next is the ability to differentiate pluripotent stem cells ex vivo into immune-cloaked functional cells with the aspiration of being able to replace any missing or damaged cells in the body. Last is a belief we can enable broader access to our therapies through focusing on scalable manufacturing solutions, the cost of manufacturing, and aligning with key stakeholders. Sana launched in early 2019 and has approximately two hundred employees in Seattle, Cambridge, and South San Francisco. In 2019, we raised capital to enable our broad vision, began to acquire technology and establish an IP estate across cell and gene therapy, and made significant progress validating our cell and gene therapy platforms. Growing from this foundation, we intend to push forward our platforms and product pipeline in 2020 and beyond.
Selecta Biosciences, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that is seeking to unlock the full potential of biologic therapies by avoiding unwanted immune responses. Selecta`s tolerogenic Synthetic Vaccine Particles (SVP™) technology platform is designed to enable a range of novel biologics for rare and serious diseases that require new treatment options. The company`s current proprietary pipeline includes SVP-enabled enzyme, oncology and gene therapies. SEL-212, the company`s lead candidate in Phase 2, is being developed to treat severe gout patients and resolve their debilitating symptoms, including flares and gouty arthritis. Selecta`s clinical oncology candidate, LMB-100, is in a Phase 1 program targeting pancreatic cancer and mesothelioma. Its two proprietary gene therapy product candidates are being developed for rare inborn errors of metabolism and have the potential to enable repeat administration. The use of SVP is also being explored in the development of vaccines and treatments for allergies and autoimmune diseases. Selecta is based in Watertown, Massachusetts.
