Angion Biomedica Corp. is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel small molecule therapeutics to address acute organ injuries and fibrotic diseases. Angion`s lead product candidate, ANG-3777, is a small molecule designed to mimic the biological activity of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to activate the HGF/c-Met pathway, which has a central role in tissue repair and organ recovery. Enrollment is ongoing in a placebo-controlled Phase 3 registration trial examining the efficacy of ANG-3777 in reducing the severity of transplant-associated acute kidney injury, also known as delayed graft function, in patients at risk for kidney dysfunction. ANG-3777 is also in a Phase 2 clinical trial for the treatment of acute kidney injury associated with cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass. Angion is also developing ANG-3070, an orally-bioavailable small molecule, as a potential treatment for a variety of chronic fibrotic diseases sharing similar underlying disease-driving pathways identified and targeted using a precision-medicine approach.

Roche is a global pioneer in pharmaceuticals and diagnostics focused on advancing science to improve people’s lives. Roche is the world’s largest biotech company, with truly differentiated medicines in oncology, immunology, infectious diseases, ophthalmology and diseases of the central nervous system. Roche is also the world leader in in vitro diagnostics and tissue-based cancer diagnostics, and a frontrunner in diabetes management. The combined strengths of pharmaceuticals and diagnostics under one roof have made Roche the leader in personalised healthcare – a strategy that aims to fit the right treatment to each patient in the best way possible. Founded in 1896, Roche continues to search for better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat diseases and make a sustainable contribution to society.

Roche has been recognised as the Group Leader in sustainability within the Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology & Life Sciences Industry seven years in a row by the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices. The Roche Group, headquartered in Basel, Switzerland, is active in over 100 countries and in 2015 employed more than 91,700 people worldwide. In 2015, Roche invested CHF 9.3 billion in R&D and posted sales of CHF 48.1 billion. Genentech, in the United States, is a wholly owned member of the Roche Group. Roche is the majority shareholder in Chugai Pharmaceutical, Japan.
EpiVax Oncology is developing precision cancer immunotherapies based on mutanome-directed neo-epitopes, selected using proprietary and validated in silico predictive algorithms. Neo-epitopes are mutated and tumor specific epitopes, recognized as non-self, capable of generating highly potent specific T cell immunogenic responses against tumors, translating in improved clinical outcome. EpiVax Oncology is developing neo-epitope based therapeutic vaccines customized and specifically designed for each cancer patient, based on the genetic profiling (using next generation DNA sequencing) of each patient`s unique tumor and normal genome sequence (the mutanome). EpiVax Oncology`s ultimate purpose is to address major unmet medical needs inadequately addressed by other oncology and immuno-oncology treatments which are either only benefiting a very limited subset of patients, or prone to adverse events, or extremely costly and complex to manufacture. EpiVax Oncology`s ambition is to become a premier cancer precision medicine company, leveraging EpiVax`s world class excellence in computational-immunology, genomics and vaccine design, built over the last 20 years.
