Navitor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., is a biopharmaceutical company developing novel medicines by targeting cellular nutrient signaling pathways. The companys proprietary drug discovery platform targets mTORC1, which responds to and integrates the cells response to nutrient availability and plays a key role in protein synthesis and cellular growth. Navitors therapeutics are designed to selectively modulate the cellular signals that are aberrant in disease processes caused by the dysregulation of mTORC1 activity to address a wide range of diseases, including metabolic, neurodegenerative, autoimmune and musculoskeletal diseases, as well as several rare disorders. The companys founding intellectual property is based on the groundbreaking discoveries related to the mTORC1 pathway and nutrient signaling mechanisms by Dr. David Sabatini at The Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. The company is backed by leading financial and corporate investors, including Polaris Partners, Atlas Venture, Johnson and Johnson Development Corporation, SR One and The Longevity Fund.
BioClin Therapeutics, Inc. is a privately-held biotechnology developing biologics to address medical conditions where there is significant unmet need. Our lead program is a human monoclonal antibody, B-701, that targets and blocks the activity of FGFR3 (fibroblast growth factor receptor 3) and is the most advanced FGFR3-specific antagonist in development. B-701 has been tested in two Phase 1 clinical trials involving 40 patients and demonstrated potential efficacy in patients with metastatic bladder cancer who were receiving it as 2nd line therapy.
