GenSight Biologics is is a clinical-stage biotechnology company discovering and developing novel therapies for neurodegenerative retinal diseases and diseases of the central nervous system. GenSight Biologics` pipeline leverages two core technology platforms, the Mitochondrial Targeting Sequence (MTS) and optogenetics for retinitis pigmentosa, to help preserve or restore vision in patients suffering from severe degenerative retinal diseases. GenSight Biologics` lead product candidate, GS010, is in Phase III trials in Leber`s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), a rare mitochondrial disease that leads to irreversible low vision and legal blindness in teens and young adults. Using its gene therapy-based approach, GenSight Biologics` product candidates are designed to be administered in a single treatment to each eye by intravitreal injection to offer patients a sustainable functional visual recovery.
Copan Diagnostics is a Murrieta, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
ALSP Inc. (American Life Science Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), is a privately held company based in San Diego, California, developing new small molecule drugs for treating neurodegenerative disease initially focused on traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer`s disease. Our approach is to identify key enzymes in the brain, called proteases, which produce biologically active peptides, proteins or processes that are thought to underlie the disease. We then use those enzymes as targets for screening compounds that inhibit these proteases and thereby prevent the harmful effect caused by these peptides, proteins and processes to treat the disease. By using this innovative process, our goal is to create and advance highly-effective drug development strategies and products for treating not only traumatic brain injury and Alzheimer`s disease, but other Neurodegenerative Conditions such as Huntington`s disease, Parkinson`s disease and MS, and recover quality of life for those patients and their families.
Left unchecked, two base rats, a male and a female, can result in 15,000 descendants in about 12 months. It`s easy to see how quickly this can lead to infestations and even population rebounds if just two rats are left behind after a knockdown program. That`s where we come in. We`re SenesTech, the rat fertility experts and the makers of ContraPest®, the first and only EPA-registered rat fertility restrictor impacting both male and female rats. We make it possible to target both ends of the lifecycle—birth and death—by adding fertility control to your integrated pest management (IPM) solution. Controlling the birth rate with ContraPest will magnify the success of your existing IPM protocols. ContraPest is the one-of-a-kind, innovative technology that targets the reproductive capabilities of both male and female Norway and roof rats. Sweet and fatty, it`s highly palatable like a “milkshake” rats can`t get enough of. By using ContraPest, you can reduce the rat population and keep it down because ContraPest works!
Inform Genomics, Inc, is a privately held company that utilizes a proprietary technology platform to discover and develop genomic-based, precision medicine products that are designed to predict, with a high degree of accuracy, clinically important outcomes that assist physicians and their patients in making individualized medical decisions. Its lead development program is in oncology supportive care, with two major products currently in development--OnPART™ and HSCT/Mucositis™--designed not only to predict a patient's risk for developing common chemotherapy-related side effects, but also to assess a patient's willingness to tolerate those side effects. The Company's novel, IP-protected technology platform capitalizes on big data storage/memory and sophisticated cloud computing technologies. It consists of proprietary Bayesian networks and other advanced bioinformatic analytics combined with validated patient assessment tools. The Company's analytics discover interactions of genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that can predict clinical outcomes. Inform Genomics' goal is to be a trusted partner to health care practitioners so that they, together with their patients, can make optimal health care choices based on an individual patient's needs and values.
