CENTOGENE - transforming genetic data into medical decisions. We are one of the worldwide leaders in the field of early genetic diagnostics for rare hereditary diseases. A data repository of genetic data from over 115 countries gives us a unique access to epidemiological, clinical and genetic information on hereditary disorders, including oncogenetic indications. We focus exclusively on providing the highest quality, patient-centred service, verified by multiple international accreditations (ISO, CAP, CLIA), regular pharmaceutical audits and our outstanding short turn-around times for analysis. We believe our medical expertise is based on cutting-edge technologies including whole exome/genome sequencing, innovative biomarkers and continued R&D. Our mutation database (CentoMD®) is the worlds largest for rare genetic diseases and is pivotal to our high-quality diagnostic reporting and comprehensive medical interpretation. CENTOGENE is a key partner for many high-profile pharmaceutical companies who are active in the orphan drug development.
Akers Biosciences is a Thorofare, NJ-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Pillar Biosciences aims to "Make precision medicine the first option for every patient" by developing and manufacturing targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based assays and software for today`s high-throughput specialty NGS laboratories. Through our SLIMamp technology (a multiplex overlapping PCR chemistry) Pillar offers a streamlined, robust and economical workflow with high mapping and on-target metrics. In conjunction with the SLIMamp assay technology, Pillar Biosciences has an informatics pipeline called the Pillar Variant Analysis Toolkit (PiVAT) that is not only highly accurate, enabling somatic variant calls down to 1% allele frequency without use of Unique Identifiers (UIDs), but also fast and efficient, returning valuable sample data quickly. For higher-sensitivity applications such as cell-free DNA analyses, Pillar Biosciences has developed a dedicated assay technology for cell-free DNA that uses UID methodology, to work with the PiVAT pipeline to drive sensitivity down to 0.1%-0.2%. Current as of May 25, 2021.
Hawaii Chitopure is a Honolulu, HI-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Areteia Therapeutics (areteiatx.com) is a clinical stage biotechnology company committed to putting asthma patients in better control of their disease and lives by developing the first potential oral drug for eosinophilic asthma. Areteia`s lead drug candidate is dexpramipexole, a first-in-class oral eosinophil maturation inhibitor. Areteia was created by Population Health Partners and Knopp Biosciences. A syndicate of leading life sciences and strategic investors led by Bain Capital Life Sciences with participation from Access Biotechnology, GV, ARCH Venture Partners, Saturn Partners, Sanofi, Maverick Capital, and Population Health Partners, has committed to invest up to $350 million in Series A financing to establish Areteia and advance dexpramipexole through Phase 3 clinical trials, secure commercial supply, and pursue potential next-generation medicines. Areteia will conduct late-stage development including Phase 3 clinical trials of dexpramipexole in partnership with Population Health Partners` development unit, Validae Health.
