Delphinus Medical Technologies, Inc. is an innovation leader in advanced ultrasound development, introducing a dynamic new technique to image the breast with the use of sound and water. Delphinus is committed to creating improved imaging methods that assist medical professionals to better define and diagnose breast disease, while establishing a better patient experience that can be available for all women, regardless of age, without the concern of radiation or pain. Headquartered in Plymouth, MI, Delphinus is the first company to design and manufacture a whole breast ultrasound system that utilizes a ring transducer to transmit and receive ultrasound signals. Known as SoftVue™, three critical sound characteristics are measured and refined through proprietary algorithms, advancing this technology far beyond traditional b-mode ultrasound. By collecting and defining reflection, sound speed, and attenuation data in a 360° orientation, data are gathered and reconstructed in tomographic coronal planes, providing an enriched image set presented for cross-sectional review. SoftVue has received FDA clearance for diagnostic imaging purposes and is not intended for use as a replacement for screening mammography. Delphinus was formed in 2010 as a spin-out of Karmanos Cancer Institute [KCI] in Detroit, MI. Created by Peter Littrup, MD of Karmanos and Neb Duric, PhD of Wayne State University Detroit, MI the SoftVue technology presents a new imaging paradigm in breast disease assessment. Karmanos Cancer Institute has served as a primary investigational site for case collection and clinical studies. Delphinus holds numerous patents and proprietary assets for its innovative and scientifically-advanced works and is poised to usher in a new era of breast imaging.

Avaxia is a leader in the growing field of gut-targeted therapeutics — orally administered, minimally absorbed drugs that are designed to act locally in the gastrointestinal tract. Avaxia’s lead clinical candidate, AVX-470, is an oral anti-TNF antibody for inflammatory bowel disease. This transformative product offers potentially improved safety and efficacy over existing anti-TNF therapies by focusing immune suppression only where needed in the diseased gut. Avaxia plans to use its gut-targeted antibody platform to develop therapeutics to address many other serious diseases such as type 2 diabetes, celiac disease, GI acute radiation syndrome and oral mucositis.
