Metabolic Solutions Development Company, LLC (MSDC) discovers and develops novel molecular targets and new therapeutics to treat metabolic diseases associated with age-related mitochondrial dysfunction, especially insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. The company has raised nearly $55 million in support of the development of its novel therapeutic drugs, MSDC-0160 and MSDC-0602, which selectively modulate mitochondrial control of to important cellular activities, such as carbohydrate, lipid, and amino acid metabolism, that are out of balance in patients with type 2 diabetes.

XTuit

XTuit Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company developing novel microenvironment-activated therapeutics targeting key mechanisms resulting in hypoxia, decreased drug uptake, drug resistance, and decreased immune response. The Company’s proprietary drug development pipeline and integrated, sophisticated clinical biomarker platform will be used for accelerated clinical development across selected cancers and fibrotic disorders. XTuit’s compounds act through pleiotropic mechanisms to inhibit extracellular matrix synthesis and stabilization, and to silence activated stromal cells, including cancer-associated fibroblasts and stellate cells. As a result, XTuit compounds alleviate hypoxia and enable enhanced drug uptake through solid stress reduction. Moreover, the drugs have been shown to down-regulate stroma-induced tumor and inflammation signaling pathways to overcome treatment resistance. XTuit’s first two lead series are being developed for early clinical proof-of-concept in liver diseases and cancer.

Trevi Therapeutics

Trevi Therapeutics, Inc. is a late-stage clinical development company developing Nalbuphine® ER for chronic pruritus (itch). Pruritus develops in various dermatologic, metabolic, hematologic, and neuropathic conditions. The Company is pursuing two conditions for clinical development: uremic pruritus and prurigo nodularis. Uremic pruritus is a persistent and debilitating itch in patients on dialysis that has been associated with significant impairment in quality of life and increased mortality. Prurigo nodularis is an intensely pruritic dermatologic condition characterized by unsightly and itchy skin papules and nodules. There are no approved therapies in the United States or Europe for either condition.
