SutroVax is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to the delivery of best-in-class conjugate vaccines and novel complex antigen-based vaccines to prevent serious infectious diseases. SutroVax`s lead product candidate is a pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) that is designed to prevent invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. SutroVax`s broad-spectrum PCV is designed to provide expanded protection against circulating strains of pneumococcus and has the potential to replace the current vaccines used in infants and adults. The current mainstay vaccine only covers approximately 40% of the circulating strains causing IPD yet generates $6B in annual sales. SutroVax has generated positive pre-clinical proof-of-concept with its significantly broader-spectrum PCV compared head-to-head to current vaccines using well accepted immunological endpoints. In addition to its lead PCV product candidate, the Company also has a promising early-stage pipeline addressing other important disease areas. SutroVax`s conjugate vaccines are developed utilizing the Company`s exclusive rights to Sutro Biopharma`s Xpress CF Platform, a cell-free protein synthesis technology. SutroVax closed its $85M Series C round in May of 2018 and is financed by a world-class syndicate of private equity, venture capital and corporate venture investors with over $170M in capital raised since 2015.
Minerva Neurosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ: NERV) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of a portfolio of product candidates to treat central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Our goal is to transform the lives of patients with improved therapeutic options. Leveraging extensive domain expertise, we have identified and acquired or in-licensed a portfolio of development-stage proprietary compounds with what we believe are innovative mechanisms of action. Our executive management team includes globally recognized specialists in central nervous system diseases addressing significant unmet medical needs. Our strategy is based on the following key principles: • Develop differentiated products based on biological and clinical insights related to the unmet needs of patients; • Conduct proof-of-principle trials in geographic areas with well characterized and validated patient populations where we have access to highly trained physicians with experience in conducting CNS-related trials; • Leverage the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled data from these trials to advance the clinical development of our products in multiple regulatory jurisdictions; • Selectively explore collaborations with leading pharmaceutical companies to maximize the value of our current product candidate portfolio, particularly in connection with the initiation of pivotal Phase III clinical trials and subsequent regulatory review, approval and commercialization; • Apply our management team`s expertise and current intellectual property portfolio to identify and explore additional indications relating to our current portfolio of compounds and to acquire additional product candidates
