Antibe Therapeutics develops safer medications for chronic pain and inflammation. Today, physicians and consumers rely principally on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), a $12 billion category of medications that includes brands like Advil, Aleve, Motrin, Celebrex, Voltaren and Aspirin. While effective, NSAIDs can cause gastrointestinal damage and bleeding. To address this serious medical need, Antibe has patented a technology for linking NSAID molecules to hydrogen sulfide molecules. More than a decade of academic and applied research has demonstrated that hydrogen sulfide, when appropriately delivered, can protect the gastrointestinal tract and enhance the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of today’s NSAIDs. Beginning with its IPO in mid-2013, Antibe has raised more than $10 million and initiated human clinical trials of its first drug, aimed at mild to moderate pain.

TYME, Inc. is a pharmaceutical company focused on creating medicines that specialize in using the body’s immune system to treat diseases. The body has the ability to fight off major diseases and heal itself. Tyme is researching a mechanism that it believes may work alongside the body’s immune system to fight Stage IV Metastatic Cancer. Tyme hopes to provide a novel compound for physicians to use in a treatment regimen for patients fighting six major cancers (breast, lung, prostrate, gastric, esophageal and pancreatic cancers) responsible for 62% of the annual cancer deaths in the United States. The SM-88, Tyme’s proprietary compound, is a novel compound that has the potential to alter defenses to oxidative stress and increase free radical availability to the cancer cell. SM-88 is designed to penetrate the living cancer cells and introduce multiple mechanisms to kill the cell. Inducing transfer of electrons in the cancer cells may allow catalyzed external free radicals to react and stress the cell. SM-88 is a combination of low dose agents used for non-cancer treatment.
