Angion

Angion Biomedica Corp. is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel small molecule therapeutics to address acute organ injuries and fibrotic diseases. Angion`s lead product candidate, ANG-3777, is a small molecule designed to mimic the biological activity of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to activate the HGF/c-Met pathway, which has a central role in tissue repair and organ recovery. Enrollment is ongoing in a placebo-controlled Phase 3 registration trial examining the efficacy of ANG-3777 in reducing the severity of transplant-associated acute kidney injury, also known as delayed graft function, in patients at risk for kidney dysfunction. ANG-3777 is also in a Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of acute kidney injury associated with cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass. Angion is also developing ANG-3070, an orally-bioavailable small molecule, as a potential treatment for a variety of chronic fibrotic diseases sharing similar underlying disease-driving pathways identified and targeted using a precision-medicine approach.

Neumora Therapeutics

Brain diseases collectively represent one of the greatest challenges of our generation, affecting upwards of 1.5 billion people. However, treatments for many of the most prevalent brain disorders have been dominated by a single class of drugs, such as serotonin targeting antidepressants for MDD, leaving patients with a high degree of unmet medical need given the lack of diverse treatment options and mechanisms of action. We are taking a fundamentally different approach to the way treatments for brain diseases are developed. Our pipeline is comprised of programs pursuing therapeutically relevant targets implicated in Central Nervous System (CNS) diseases, each targeting a novel mechanism of action with best-in-class pharmacology. Our work is supported by our Precision Toolbox, which integrates a suite of translational, clinical, and computational tools to generate insights that can enable precision medicine approaches. Neumora is relentless in its commitment to discovering, developing and commercializing novel therapies for the 1.5 billion people living with brain diseases.
