Locus Biosciences

www.locus-bio.com

 
Locus Biosciences` novel approach to precision antimicrobials works by taking advantage of an immune system present in many bacteria called the CRISPR-Cas system. The CRISPR-Cas system protects bacteria from invaders such as viruses by creating a small strand of RNA called a CRISPR RNA, which matches a DNA sequence specific to a given invader. If the CRISPR RNA is matched to a complementary DNA sequence, the Cas proteins will cleave the invading DNA.

Kiadis

Kiadis Pharma is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative and potentially life-saving therapies for blood cancer patients where pharmacological standard of care is no longer an alternative. The Company`s main focus is on the development of a cellular therapeutic that will enable partially mismatched donor stem cell transplants from family members in blood cancer patients, thus making them safe and available as the last potentially life saving option. Stem cell transplantation is currently the only potentially curative treatment available for late stage blood cancer patients; however, a standard of care matching donor is only available for half of patients who are progressing with radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
