Most patients who are prescribed blockbuster therapies today don`t respond to the treatment, costing the health care industry billions in wasted drugs while patients continue to suffer. Scipher`s platform identifies which drug will work based on the patient`s fundamental disease biology, and not based on symptoms, disease classification, or medical bias. A simple test predicts which drug he/she will respond to, ensuring that most optimal treatment is prescribed from day one. The molecular data generated by our tests is then used to fuel novel target discovery to address a clear unmet medical need in patients who do not respond to ...

4D Molecular Therapeutics

The mission of 4D Molecular Therapeutics is to design and develop transformative gene therapy products using our proprietary technology to create novel adeno-associated virus variants to be utilized as treatments for serious unmet medical conditions. Our products are unlocking the full potential of gene therapy to treat, and potentially cure, genetic diseases. A large number of patients and diseases, who previously were not treatable by gene therapy, will be addressable by 4D products. 4D has one of the deepest and most diverse product pipelines in the gene therapy field. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have emerged as a favored delivery vehicle for gene therapy in the human body. They can deliver the genes for therapeutic proteins to accessible tissues in the body and are generally considered safe. Several AAV gene therapy products are in late-stage clinical development, and one product is approved in the EU (Glybera, Uniqure). However, these first-generation AAV vectors have limited utility for the majority of diseases. Many of these common AAV were discovered as laboratory contaminants and monkey infections, for example; they have not been customized as targeted medicines. In contrast, 4D customized AAV vectors, and the products made from them, are designed to unlock the full potential of gene therapy. Through 4D`s Therapeutic Vector Evolution, we are able to create customized vectors solutions to overcome the hurdles identified with first-generation AAV vectors. 4D is creating the ultimate gene therapy products to cure genetic diseases using new customized delivery vehicles (vectors) to shuttle genes into the cells in any organ in the body. This 4D “library” of vectors will soon include several for the liver, several for the brain, several for the heart, the eye, muscle, and so on. Doctors will be able to hand pick a vector for any patient based on the organ that is diseased.

Averitas Pharma

At Averitas Pharma, we strive to enable people with pain to live and feel more like their true selves. With patients at the forefront of every decision we make, we want more than to envision people not limited by their pain; we work every day with passion and determination to make it a reality. We are currently helping patients by offering the only FDA-approved, non-opioid, topical system for the treatment of neuropathic pain associated with postherpetic neuralgia (post-shingles nerve pain) and for neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy of the feet (diabetic nerve pain of the feet). We are proudly building on the 75-year legacy of Grünenthal, a global privately held healthcare company that has been working tirelessly toward a world free of pain by approaching pain as a disease in urgent need of a solution, rather than a mere symptom. We do it because we care. Most of us have either dealt with chronic pain or know someone who has, because it is a burden that far too many people around the world must bear. Our empathy for patients, and our shared sense of mission and purpose, are what inspires us to keep going. And our people are the key to our success.
