Eloxx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing novel RNA-modulating drug candidates that are designed to treat rare and ultra-rare premature stop codon diseases. Premature stop codons are point mutations that disrupt protein synthesis from messenger RNA. As a consequence, patients with premature stop codon diseases have reduced or eliminated protein production from the mutation bearing allele accounting for some of the most severe phenotypes in these genetic diseases. These premature stop codons have been identified in over 1,800 rare and ultra-rare diseases. Read-through therapeutic development is focused on extending mRNA half-life and increasing protein synthesis by enabling the cytoplasmic ribosome to read through premature stop codons to produce full-length proteins. Eloxx`s lead product candidate, ELX-02, is a small molecule drug candidate designed to restore production of full-length functional proteins. ELX-02 is in the early stages of clinical development focusing on cystic fibrosis and cystinosis. ELX-02 is an investigational drug that has not been approved by any global regulatory body. Eloxx is headquartered in Waltham, MA, with R&D operations in Rehovot, Israel.
Vernalis plc is a revenue generating development stage pharmaceutical company with one marketed product, frovatriptan, and a broad pipeline of research and development programmes. The business model is a balance between risk and innovation with the aim of creating value through a focused and disciplined strategy. An exclusive development and licensing agreement with Tris Pharma to develop multiple novel products focussed on the US prescription cough cold market is the platform for Vernalis to build a profitable and cash generative commercial business in the US. These novel products are low risk, late stage and differentiated for an unmet need. Value is also being extracted from the legacy NCE pipeline where the model is to selectively invest and then partner these programmes, earning milestones and royalties as partners progress them at their expense. Vernalis also exploits its significant expertise in fragment and structure based drug discovery by entering into collaborations with larger pharmaceutical companies. Its technologies and capabilities have been endorsed, over the last five years, through collaborations with leading pharmaceutical companies, including Biogen Idec, Endo, GSK, Genentech, Lundbeck, Menarini, Novartis, Servier and Tris Pharma.
