Frontier Medicines is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing breakthrough medicines that redefine the course of debilitating diseases. According to the American Cancer Society, 1,762,000 new cancer cases and 607,000 deaths from cancer are expected to occur in the US in 2019. Our focus is developing treatments against important cancer-causing proteins that the biopharma industry hasn`t found a way to treat (or “drug”) with pharmaceutical interventions. After decades of research, this has become one of the most critical challenges in addressing human disease and advancing oncology therapy --central to the research at Frontier Medicines. Frontier Medicines is using chemoproteomics – an innovative approach to chemically interrogate proteins in living systems – to discover and pharmacologically target new binding pockets (or “hotspots”) on proteins, making them accessible to small-molecule drug discovery and development. The company`s proprietary chemoproteomics platform also integrates advanced computational approaches and machine learning to further accelerate the path to drug discovery.
Botanix Pharmaceuticals is a biotechnology company listed on the ASX (ASX: BOT) with headquarters in Perth, Australia, and Philadelphia, USA. The company specializes in clinical-stage dermatology and antimicrobial treatments, focusing on synthetic cannabinoid-based therapies that utilize cannabidiol (CBD) and its proprietary skin-delivery technology, Permetrex™. The companys product pipeline includes several innovative therapies aimed at addressing common dermatological conditions. These include BTX 1503 for moderate-to-severe acne, BTX 1702 for rosacea, and BTX 1204A for moderate atopic dermatitis. Additionally, BTX 1801 targets infections in hemodialysis patients and other antimicrobial applications. All products leverage the Permetrex™ delivery system to enhance skin absorption, and Botanix is also exploring veterinary applications for atopic dermatitis. Botanix aims to improve patient outcomes by addressing unmet needs in dermatology and antimicrobial resistance, positioning itself as a leader in cannabinoid-based dermatological treatments.
Bio Clean USA is a Bridgeport, CT-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.
