Evozyne is a data-driven evolution-based molecular engineering platform for building novel, application-specific proteins with advanced functionality.
Imara Inc. is dedicated to developing novel therapeutics for people living with sickle cell disease and other hemoglobinopathies. Sickle cell disease is a rare, genetic blood disease that causes red blood cells to sickle and become damaged, activating immune cells and blocking blood flow in capillaries, injuring many organs and causing daily pain. Imara is developing IMR-687, a highly selective, potent small molecule inhibitor of phosphodiesterase-9 (PDE9i), to treat patients with sickle cell disease. Imara was launched following an 18-month scientific collaboration between orphan drug accelerator Cydan Development and H. Lundbeck A/S.
PsychoGenics, Inc. is one of the leading companies in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Cybrexa is a clinical-stage oncology biotechnology company developing novel antigen-independent peptide drug conjugates (ADCs) aimed at combatting a range of cancer types, including ovarian, breast and non-small cell lung cancer. With the potential to disrupt the standard of care, the Cybrexa alphalex™ technology is a novel antigen-independent peptide drug conjugate (PDC) platform that enables targeted delivery of highly potent anticancer treatments and aims to revolutionize the standard of care in oncology. The platform consists of a pHLIP® peptide, linker, and small molecule anti-cancer agent. pHLIP® peptides are a family of pH-Low Insertion Peptides that target acidic cell surfaces. pHLIP® was developed at Yale University and the University of Rhode Island, and is exclusively licensed to pHLIP, Inc. alphalex™ represents the disruptive next generation in tumor targeting. Early clinical trials of the company`s lead candidate, CBX-12, demonstrate robust efficacy signals and tolerability in patients with metastatic cancer. As a privately held company, Cybrexa is led by a management team experienced at building life science companies and driven by scientists with an expertise in drug development and oncology.
Kiadis Pharma is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing innovative and potentially life-saving therapies for blood cancer patients where pharmacological standard of care is no longer an alternative. The Company`s main focus is on the development of a cellular therapeutic that will enable partially mismatched donor stem cell transplants from family members in blood cancer patients, thus making them safe and available as the last potentially life saving option. Stem cell transplantation is currently the only potentially curative treatment available for late stage blood cancer patients; however, a standard of care matching donor is only available for half of patients who are progressing with radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
