Recognizing the importance of managing a traumatic bleed quickly and effectively, Joe Landolina and Isaac Miller founded Cresilon, Inc. based on the hemostatic plant-based gel technology Joe invented while experimenting in the lab. Cresilon has since grown into a biotechnology company headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, commercializing our medical device technology in the animal health, trauma care, and surgical markets.
Innopsys is a Sunnyvale, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
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.
Arkuda Therapeutics is a biotechnology company applying insights into lysosomal biology to drive the development of medicines to change the trajectory of neurodegenerative disease. Arkuda`s lead program ARKD-104 aims to correct progranulin deficiency and lysosomal dysfunction in patients with GRN-related frontotemporal dementia (FTD-GRN), a genetically-defined subtype of frontotemporal dementia caused by an autosomal dominant mutation in the progranulin (GRN) gene. The company is further exploring the therapeutic potential of its molecules in other neurodegenerative diseases where genetic links to dysfunction in progranulin biology have been established, including Alzheimer`s Disease and Parkinson`s Disease. Arkuda is backed by leading investors including Atlas Venture, Cormorant Asset Management, Pfizer Ventures, funds managed by Tekla Capital Management LLC, Mission BioCapital, and Eli Lilly and Company.
Codiak is the leader in the emerging field of exosome therapeutics, working to harness the power of this cellular messenger system to create potentially life-changing medicines. A venture-backed startup founded in 2015, Codiak has rapidly built a proprietary technology platform for exosome engineering and manufacturing that allows for precise targeting of important molecular pathways, opening the door to the development of therapies for cancer and other diseases. Led by an experienced and dedicated team, Codiak has at its foundation a positive and collaborative culture that is deeply rooted in cutting edge science and promotes opportunity for growth. Recent discoveries have transformed our understanding of the role of exosomes in the body. We now know that these natural, cell-derived vesicles can act as a potent and safe delivery system for multiple therapeutic payloads. Recognizing the enormous potential of exosomes, Codiak is applying leading-edge translational science and rigorous drug development to build a pipeline of candidates with broad utility and the capacity to address currently “undruggable” targets. While our initial focus is on oncology/immuno-oncology, this approach also offers significant potential in hematology, neurology and gene therapy and other therapy areas. At Codiak, we are working to create a major shift in the development of tomorrow`s medicines through scientific ambition, remarkable ingenuity and deep passion for improving patients` lives. Located in the heart of Boston`s biotechnology hub in Cambridge, Massachusetts, we are advancing a bold vision by tapping into the unique talents of a varied pool of individuals who together are achieving truly exceptional work.
