NGM Biopharmaceuticals

NGM Bio is a research-driven, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company with a passion to improve the lives of those struggling with serious diseases. Our expertise in drug discovery and translational development, coupled with the significant resources from our partnership with Merck, is driving development of transformational medicines that dramatically improve human health. Our initial R&D focus has been to develop a portfolio of high-impact therapeutics for the underserved patient populations who suffer from cardio-metabolic and liver diseases. We believe that our research expertise – comprehensive and grounded in fundamental, interrelated mechanisms of human biology – is capable of driving the development of new therapies for a wide range of other disease areas as well, such as cancer. NGM Bio`s comprehensive approach to drug discovery focuses on elucidating the biology of hormones, cell receptors and associated ligands. As we investigate these novel biological mechanisms, we assemble a deep understanding of the relationship between the structure and function of proteins of interest. Coupled with our experience in protein and antibody engineering, our approach enables the efficient and targeted generation of potential first-in-class therapeutics with optimized pharmacologic profiles.

Tyme

TYME, Inc. is a pharmaceutical company focused on creating medicines that specialize in using the body’s immune system to treat diseases. The body has the ability to fight off major diseases and heal itself. Tyme is researching a mechanism that it believes may work alongside the body’s immune system to fight Stage IV Metastatic Cancer. Tyme hopes to provide a novel compound for physicians to use in a treatment regimen for patients fighting six major cancers (breast, lung, prostrate, gastric, esophageal and pancreatic cancers) responsible for 62% of the annual cancer deaths in the United States. The SM-88, Tyme’s proprietary compound, is a novel compound that has the potential to alter defenses to oxidative stress and increase free radical availability to the cancer cell. SM-88 is designed to penetrate the living cancer cells and introduce multiple mechanisms to kill the cell. Inducing transfer of electrons in the cancer cells may allow catalyzed external free radicals to react and stress the cell. SM-88 is a combination of low dose agents used for non-cancer treatment.
