Arch Oncology, Inc. is a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company focused on the discovery and development of potential best-in-class antibody therapies for the treatment of patients with solid tumors and hematologic malignancies.
Leading the translation of RNA-modifying protein (RMP) biology into promising new therapies for cancer.
Ensysce Biosciences, San Diego, CA, is a clinical stage private biopharma with prodrug platforms that address opioid use disorder. Trypsin-Activated Abuse Protection (TAAP) technology forms an opioid prodrug that can only be activated through a 2-step internal digestive process, and therefore cannot be abused by chewing, snorting or IV administration.
Our founding belief is that the future of medicine will rely on artificial intelligence, because biology is too complex for humans to understand. Today, the molecular world of the cell can be experimentally interrogated like never before. The resulting datasets provide an unprecedented opportunity to build artificial intelligence systems that are biologically accurate and that support the detection of disease and the development of molecular interventions. Deep Genomics is building a biologically accurate data- and AI-driven platform that supports geneticists, molecular biologists and chemists in the development of therapies. Over the next two years, Deep Genomics will use its platform to unlock new classes of antisense oligonucleotide therapies that were previously inaccessible or out of reach, and advance them for clinical evaluation. In project Saturn, the platform will be used to search across a vast space of over 69 billion molecules with the goal of generating a library of 1000 compounds that can be used to manipulate cell biology and design therapies.
Applied DNA is commercializing LinearDNA™, its proprietary, large-scale polymerase chain reaction (“PCR”)-based manufacturing platform that allows for the large-scale production of specific DNA sequences. The LinearDNA platform has utility in the nucleic acid-based in vitro diagnostics and preclinical nucleic acid-based drug development and manufacturing market. The platform is used to manufacture DNA for customers as components of in vitro diagnostic tests and for preclinical nucleic acid-based drug development in the fields of adoptive cell therapies (CAR T and TCR therapies), DNA vaccines (anti-viral and cancer), RNA therapies, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) based therapies, and gene therapies. Applied DNA has also established a COVID-19 diagnostic and testing offering that is in the early stages of commercialization and is grounded in the Company’s deep expertise in DNA. The LinearDNA platform also has non-biologic applications, such as supply chain security, anti-counterfeiting and anti-theft technology. Key end-markets include textiles, pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, and cannabis, among others.
