Virobay is focused on the development and commercialization of novel drugs through the utilization of small molecule inhibitors of cysteine proteases, a diverse class of enzyme proteases, for a variety of conditions, including neuropathic pain, autoimmune diseases and fibrosis. The foundation of Virobay's proprietary cathepsin platform and the Virobay management team were spun-out from Celera Genomics, which was then a leader in cathepsin research. Virobay's clinical pipeline currently includes product candidates in neuropathic pain, dermatology, autoimmune disease and fibrosis.

Cogent Biosciences is a biotechnology company developing real solutions to treat genetically driven diseases. With a focus on rational drug discovery and development, we are leveraging validated biology to advance precision therapies designed to address the true underlying drivers of disease and provide real hope for patients. Cogent`s lead therapeutic candidate, PLX9486 (expected to be named CGT9486 in the future), is a precision kinase inhibitor designed to selectively and potently inhibit the KIT D816V mutation. This mutation is responsible for driving a rare and serious condition called Systemic Mastocytosis which can severely impact many different tissues and organs in the body. We are also studying PLX9486 to treat advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), which have a strong dependence on oncogenic KIT signaling.
