Antibe Therapeutics develops safer medications for chronic pain and inflammation. Today, physicians and consumers rely principally on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), a $12 billion category of medications that includes brands like Advil, Aleve, Motrin, Celebrex, Voltaren and Aspirin. While effective, NSAIDs can cause gastrointestinal damage and bleeding. To address this serious medical need, Antibe has patented a technology for linking NSAID molecules to hydrogen sulfide molecules. More than a decade of academic and applied research has demonstrated that hydrogen sulfide, when appropriately delivered, can protect the gastrointestinal tract and enhance the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of today’s NSAIDs. Beginning with its IPO in mid-2013, Antibe has raised more than $10 million and initiated human clinical trials of its first drug, aimed at mild to moderate pain.

Telo Genomics is a biotech company pioneering the most comprehensive telomere platform in the industry with powerful applications and prognostic solutions. These include liquid biopsies and related technologies in oncology and neurological diseases. Liquid biopsy is a rapidly growing field of significant interest to the medical community for being less invasive and more easily replicated than traditional diagnostic approaches. By combining our team’s considerable expertise in quantitative analysis of 3D telomeres with molecular biology and artificial intelligence to recognize disease-associated genetic instability, Telo Genomics is developing simple and accurate products that improve day-to-day care for patients by serving the needs of pathologists, clinicians, academic researchers and drug developers. The benefits of our proprietary technology have been substantiated in over 150 peer reviewed publications and in 25 clinical studies involving more than 3,000 patients with multiple cancers and Alzheimer’s disease. Our lead application, Telo-MM is being developed to provide important, actionable information to medical professionals in the treatment of Multiple Myeloma, a deadly form of blood cancer.
BIND Biosciences, Inc. is a Cambridge, MA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Lycera is a biopharmaceutical company that seeks to uncover new small molecule therapies for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and cancer. Our approach builds on an in-depth understanding of the orchestration of immune response in disease progression. When working correctly, the immune system can respond aggressively and with precise targeting to eliminate infectious pathogens or cancer cells. Incorrect regulation can cause the immune system to attack healthy tissue as foreign, supporting onset and progression of autoimmune disease while disruption of anti-tumor immune responses can shield cancer cells from the immune system and allow them to proliferate. Lycera is rapidly building a portfolio of selective immune modulators with mechanisms we believe will translate into improved outcomes for patients. With senior leadership and a team of scientists who represent the best of their fields, Lycera has the expertise and insight necessary to develop innovative therapies able to restore immune balance and significantly improve treatment for patients affected by these diseases around the world. Lycera product development programs are enhanced by our established global relationships with many leading chemists, scientists and clinical researchers. We are currently advancing novel small molecule compounds from distinct, yet complementary, areas of research, including immune metabolism, cell signaling and immune cell differentiation.
