Provention Bio, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel therapeutics aimed at intercepting and preventing immune-mediated diseases. -We seek technologies or targets designed to predict, preempt or intervene before immune disease begins, re-appears or progresses. -We are creating a new biopharmaceutical category for autoimmunity. We leverage a transformational drug development strategy that sources, repositions and advances candidates that: -Target the interception or prevention of immune-mediated disease -Have been underdeveloped or deprioritized because of insufficient clinical trial efficacy or for strategic reasons -Have demonstrated proof-of-mechanism by preventing or intercepting immunopathologic pathways We believe that our deep understanding of immune-mediated pathophysiology, experience in translational medicine, and expertise in the design of rapid go/no-go clinical trials enables us to identify and evaluate potential therapeutic candidates for acquisition or in-licensing.
At Spark Therapeutics, we don`t follow footsteps. We create the path. We were born of innovation, springing from the curiosity, imagination and dedication of remarkable scientists and healthcare visionaries. Our mission is seemingly impossible to others, but not to us: Challenge the inevitability of genetic disease by discovering, developing and delivering treatments in ways unimaginable – until now. Since our founding, we have been committed to bringing a wide range of expertise to build a fully integrated gene therapy company focused on inherited retinal diseases (IRDs), neurodegenerative diseases, as well as diseases that can be addressed by targeting the liver, such as hemophilia. We are seeking talented individuals with diverse experiences, abilities and interests who have the curiosity, courage and drive to reimagine a new health care paradigm. Join us on a journey through uncharted territory – seeking to bring gene therapy for genetic diseases to people worldwide. The resilience of the people we serve is our inspiration to break barriers, as we strive to turn genes into medicine for those with inherited diseases. Spark is a member of the Roche Group.
