CODA Biotherapeutics` revolutionary chemogenetic platform aims to control the activity of cells to treat disease. With chemogenetics, the goal is to modify a target cell population using gene therapy to express a tunable `switch` protein. Cells modified with the `switch` can be activated or inactivated in a dose-dependent manner by a subsequently administered small molecule therapeutic, an effect that should only occur in the modified cells.
Also known as Advantagene. Inc., we are a Massachusetts-based biotechnology company developing our proprietary immuno-oncology platforms for the treatment of solid tumors, including our Gene Mediated Cytotoxic (GMCI™) platform and our rQNestin34.5 platform. GMCI™ is an "off-the-shelf" immunotherapy designed to generate a personalized, robust, and precise systemic response from the patient's own immune system against his or her cancer.
Celularity, headquartered in Florham Park, N.J., is a clinical stage biotechnology company leading the next evolution in cellular medicine by delivering off-the-shelf allogeneic placenta-derived cellular therapies at unparalleled scale, quality and economics. Celularity`s innovative approach to cell therapy harnesses the unique therapeutic potential locked within the postpartum placenta. Through nature`s immunotherapy engine – the placenta – Celularity is leading the next evolution of cellular medicine with placenta-derived T cells, NK cells, and pluripotent stem cells to target unmet and underserved clinical needs in cancer, infectious and degenerative diseases.
Cytek Biosciences Inc. is a leading manufacturer and supplier of flow cytometry products and services. Cytek`s compact, affordable instruments and wide ranging support offerings are used by researchers and clinicians all over the world. Flow cytometry is a powerful analytical tool used for identifying and quantifying cellular characteristics on a cell-by-cell basis up to tens of thousands of cells per second. This technology is used in research and clinical studies with various biomedical and therapeutic applications such as investigating the role of the body`s immune system in fighting cancer, diagnosing leukemia and lymphoma, and detecting minimal residual disease in organ transplant patients. Flow cytometry has many advantages over traditional microscopy since it enables the analysis of a greater number of cells in a fraction of the time. At Cytek, we are focused on accelerating the adoption of flow cytometry for one simple reason: to fuel scientific discovery. We have leveraged our highly experienced, best-in-the-business team to bring forth an innovative new class of flow cytometry solutions. These solutions deliver deep biological insights at an affordable price, provide high-end capabilities, and bring simplified workflows to more researchers than ever before. As a company, we also seek to maintain high ethical standards and a culture that values honesty, integrity and transparency in all that we do. Company decisions are driven by what is right for scientific discovery and customer support. We are committed to our employees, to the environment in which we live and to the communities we serve worldwide. Cytek is headquartered in Fremont, California with branch offices and distribution channels across the globe.
Exicure is developing a new class of immunomodulatory and gene silencing drugs against validated targets. Our 3-dimensional, spherical nucleic acid (SNA™) architecture unlocks the potential of nucleic acid therapeutics in multiple organs. Our lead programs address diseases from inflammatory disorders to oncology. SNA constructs overcome one of the most difficult obstacles to nucleic acid therapeutics: safe and effective delivery into cells and tissues. SNA constructs exhibit unparalleled transfection efficiency into numerous cell and tissue types including the skin without carriers or transfection agents. Moreover, SNAs can be used as potent immunotherapeutic agents for the treatment of cancer or infectious disease.
