New discoveries are revealing the fundamental role of autophagy and lysosomal flux in maintaining cellular health. Furthermore, it is now appreciated that inadequate or aberrant autophagy contributes to a wide range of diseases. We are focused on boosting autophagy – pioneering novel therapeutic strategies to address unmet medical needs. We are creating a new target set for drug discovery and development, and advancing innovative paradigms to treat a broad set of illnesses that are either neglected or inadequately addressed today. Our growing team is driven to transform fundamental discoveries on autophagy into promising therapeutic medicines.
CervoMed is a public, Boston, MA-based company advancing CNS-focused therapeutics to benefit patients with neurodegenerative diseases. CervoMed was launched in 2014 as EIP Pharma, Inc, by R&D executives from the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. In August, 2023 EIP Pharma merged with Diffusion Pharmaceuticals, retaining EIPs development pipeline, but changing their name to CervoMed (CRVO).

Trevena is a publicly traded clinical stage biopharmaceutical company based in King of Prussia, PA, dedicated to the discovery and development of GPCR biased ligands. Established in late 2007, Trevena was created to translate groundbreaking research on GPCR signaling into a new generation of medicines. We have three programs in clinical development: TRV027, currently in phase 2 clinical testing for the treatment of acute heart failure; TRV130, currently in phase 2 testing for the intraveneous treatment of postoperative pain; and TRV734, currently in phase 1 testing for oral treatment of acute and chronic pain. In addition, Trevena has built an early-stage portfolio of drug discovery programs currently in lead optimization. G protein coupled receptors are the targets for more than 30% of all currently marketed therapeutics. There is significant opportunity to improve upon currently marketed GPCR drugs because many have limited efficacy and undesirable adverse effects, which can prevent broader use. Furthermore, many GPCRs are linked to diseases but cannot be translated into medicines because of specific target-related adverse effects. Trevena's biased ligand approach has the potential to address these problems across a wide range of receptors and therapeutic areas.
The future is different. We are building sensing and thinking machines, with synthetic neurobiology at its core. Machines with extremely dense sensing and computation based on carbon. In our systems, everything can be engineered with care for sustainab...
Annovis Bio is developing a drug for Alzheimers Disease, Parkinsons Disease and other neurodegenerative diseases that inhibits more than one neurotoxic protein and, thereby, improves the information highway of the nerve cell, known as axonal transport.
