Caribou is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, founded by pioneers in CRISPR genome editing, leveraging our proprietary technology to develop genome-edited off-the-shelf immune cell therapies for the treatment of cancer. We believe that cell therapies are critical now and for the future of cancer therapy and that advanced genome editing is necessary to develop sophisticated cell therapies to treat a variety of malignancies. We are developing a pipeline of genome-edited, off-the-shelf CAR-T and CAR-NK cell therapies for a range of tumor types. Our mission is to develop innovative, transformative therapies for patients with devastating diseases through novel genome editing. Members of the Caribou herd open their minds to new ideas and welcome diverse perspectives. We proudly assert that teams do their best work when their members are personally engaged, their ideas are taken seriously, their contributions are recognized, and their needs are met.

BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (www.biorestorative.com) develops therapeutic products using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells. Our two core programs, as described below, relate to the treatment of disc/spine disease and metabolic disorders: • Disc/Spine Program (brtxDISC™): Our lead cell therapy candidate, BRTX-100, is a product formulated from autologous (or a person`s own) cultured mesenchymal stem cells collected from the patient`s bone marrow. We intend that the product will be used for the non-surgical treatment of protruding and bulging lumbar discs in patients suffering from chronic lumbar disc disease. The BRTX-100 production process involves collecting a patient`s bone marrow, isolating and culturing stem cells from the bone marrow and cryopreserving the cells. In an outpatient procedure, BRTX-100 is to be injected by a physician into the patient`s damaged disc. The treatment is intended for patients whose pain has not been alleviated by non-invasive procedures and who potentially face the prospect of surgery. We have received clearance from the Food and Drug Administration to commence a Phase 2 clinical trial using BRTX-100 to treat chronic lower back pain due to degenerative disc disease related to protruding/bulging discs. • Metabolic Program (ThermoStem®): We are developing a cell-based therapy to target obesity and metabolic disorders using brown adipose (fat) derived stem cells to generate brown adipose tissue (“BAT”). BAT is intended to mimic naturally occurring brown adipose depots that regulate metabolic homeostasis in humans. Initial preclinical research indicates that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels. Researchers have found that people with higher levels of brown fat may have a reduced risk for obesity and diabetes.
bioStrategies Group is a Chicago, IL-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Elanco Animal Health Incorporated is a prominent American pharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing, and marketing medicines and vaccinations for pets and livestock. Established in 1954 as a division of Eli Lilly and Company, Elanco became an independent entity in 2018 and has since grown to be one of the largest independent animal health companies worldwide. The acquisition of Bayer Animal Health in 2020 significantly expanded its size and global reach. Elanco offers a wide range of products aimed at enhancing animal health and productivity. This includes pharmaceuticals and vaccines for livestock and companion animals, nutritional solutions to improve feed efficiency, and data analytics through its Elanco Knowledge Solutions division.
