We are dedicated to developing and commercializing effective and broadly applicable interventions for food allergy. Food allergy is a disease of the immune system that is triggered by an exceptionally broad range of commonly allergenic foods such as cow’s milk, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, shellfish and even sesame. In a perfect world, the human immune system would adapt to all foods. However, in tens of millions of people, the immune system wrongly recognizes some food proteins as harmful and does not adapt. We envision a world where, with help from oral immunotherapy, the immune system can adapt to nearly all food allergens. And we built our inspiration into our name—Alladapt. Alladapt was co-founded in 2018 in Palo Alto, California, by allergist and protein biochemist Kari Nadeau, MD, PhD, and biotechnology entrepreneur, Ashley Dombkowski, PhD. Academic clinical research conducted by Dr. Nadeau has demonstrated that a food allergic immune system in an individual person can be receptive to remodeling by gradually increasing exposure, under tightly controlled clinical supervision, to the proteins that activate the inappropriate cascade of reactions. This work, combined with research illuminating disease mechanisms and pathways, led the founders to envision a biopharmaceutical intervention capable of addressing food allergy provoked by a wide-ranging set of antigens. Food allergy is a serious disease, with potentially life-threatening consequences. The disease has grown dramatically in recent years and now affects more than 6 million children¹ and 26 million adults² in the United States alone. Importantly, about half of people with food allergy are reactive to multiple foods, which further increases the risk of anaphylaxis due to accidental ingestion. The chronic, unpredictable components of this disease can elevate anxiety in patients and their families, and place extreme limitations on their lives. It is our goal to help patients experience more of life’s magical moments with less fear and greater confidence.
ROME Therapeutics is developing novel therapies for cancer and autoimmune diseases by harnessing the power of the repeatome – vast stretches of uncharted genetic material that have long been dismissed as “junk DNA.”
Calibre Scientific is a diversified global provider of life science reagents, tools, instruments, and other consumables to the lab research, diagnostics and biopharmaceutical communities.
Muse bio is transforming genome engineering by enabling, for the first time, high throughput massively-multiplexed CRISPR editing of proteins, pathways, and genomes. Through our powerful bioinformatics and novel molecular approach, ForgeCraft generates low-cost libraries of thousands of designer protein, pathway, or genome variants each with specifically defined, trackable mutations. This allows the impact of specific changes to be determined through rapid selection and high throughput screening allowing research timelines and costs to be reduced.
