Connectyx is a development-stage biomedical company focusing on novel treatments for rare diseases. In November, the Company announced it is changing its name to Curative Biotechnology, Inc. and has applied for the name change and a trading symbol (CURB) with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., which should take effect in the first quarter of 2021. Connectyx is focused on therapies with potentially accelerated development paths as a result of either the disease, the nature of the therapeutic itself, or the stage of clinical development. At the heart of the Company is a product development engine that rests on our unique S.O.A.R. filter (Science, Opportunity, Acceleration, Rare Disease.) At Connectyx, we envision a world where all patients have a therapeutic option.
At Prevail Therapeutics, we are pioneering innovative therapies that aim to cure neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson`s disease. Our mission is to translate breakthrough advances in human genetics and gene therapy technology into life-changing medicines that slow, stop and reverse the neurodegenerative process. Our novel gene therapies target patients with urgent unmet needs, where there are currently no available therapies to change the progressive course of their diseases. Prevail was formed in 2017, and as an emerging biotechnology company, we are growing rapidly. We are building a team of dedicated, creative and talented individuals who share our passion for serving patients with neurodegenerative diseases. We pride ourselves on following great science, and we value collaboration, integrity and agility. We are based in the Alexandria Center for Life Science in New York City.
Ventus is a newly established venture-backed biotech company pursuing small molecule therapeutics targeting key innate immune pathways for numerous auto-immune and auto-inflammatory diseases.
Scholar Rock is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of innovative medicines for the treatment of serious diseases in which signaling by protein growth factors plays a fundamental role. Our most advanced product candidate, apitegromab (SRK-015), a selective first-in-class inhibitor of the activation of the growth factor myostatin in skeletal muscle, is currently in development for the treatment of spinal muscular atrophy, or SMA. We are currently evaluating apitegromab in our TOPAZ Phase 2 proof-of-concept trial in patients with later-onset (Type 2 and Type 3) SMA. Positive six-month interim analysis results were announced in October 2020 and top-line data for the full 12-month treatment period are anticipated in the second quarter of 2021. In addition, we are conducting our DRAGON Phase 1 proof-of-concept trial for SRK-181, a highly specific inhibitor of latent TGFβ1 activation, in patients with locally advanced and metastatic solid tumors. We believe SRK-181 has the potential to overcome resistance and meaningfully increase the number of patients who may benefit from checkpoint inhibitors, such as anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapies. Utilizing our proprietary platform, we are creating a pipeline of novel product candidates with the potential to transform the lives of patients suffering from a wide range of serious diseases, including neuromuscular disorders, cancer, fibrosis and anemia.
Also known as Advantagene. Inc., we are a Massachusetts-based biotechnology company developing our proprietary immuno-oncology platforms for the treatment of solid tumors, including our Gene Mediated Cytotoxic (GMCI™) platform and our rQNestin34.5 platform. GMCI™ is an "off-the-shelf" immunotherapy designed to generate a personalized, robust, and precise systemic response from the patient's own immune system against his or her cancer.
