Genelux

Genelux is a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing a pipeline of next-generation oncolytic immunotherapies for patients suffering from aggressive and/or difficult-to-treat solid tumor types. The Company`s most advanced product candidate, Olvi-Vec (olvimulogene nanivacirepvec), is a proprietary, modified strain of the vaccinia virus. Olvi-Vec currently is being evaluated in OnPrime/GOG-3076, a multi-center, randomized, open-label Phase 3 registrational trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Olvi-Vec in combination with platinum-doublet + bevacizumab compared to platinum-doublet + bevacizumab in patients with platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer. The core of Genelux` discovery and development efforts revolves around the company`s proprietary CHOICE™ platform from which the Company has developed an extensive library of isolated and engineered oncolytic vaccinia virus immunotherapeutic product candidates, including Olvi-Vec.

ImmunoGen

Targeting a better life for people with cancer is why we get up in the morning. It`s not enough to disrupt the progress of someone`s cancer; we want to keep cancer from disrupting someone`s life. That`s why everything we do is about developing the most precise, targeted cancer therapies. We believe this is the best way to get people back to their lives—back to living today, tomorrow, and beyond. Because for us, targeting a better now is the only thing that matters. ImmunoGen is a leader in developing antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Our lead product candidate, mirvetuximab soravtansine, is a first-in-class folate receptor alpha (FRα)-targeting ADC with multiple studies underway in ovarian cancer. Our second pivotal program, IMGN632, is a CD123-targeting ADC being studied as a monotherapy in BPDCN and in combination in AML. Our earlier-stage assets in development are IMGC936, an ADAM9-targeting ADC in co-development with MacroGenics, and IMGN151, our next generation anti-folate receptor alpha ADC.

Taysha Gene Therapies

Taysha Gene Therapies is on a mission to eradicate monogenic CNS disease. With a singular focus on developing curative medicines, we hope to rapidly translate our treatments from bench to bedside. We have combined our team`s proven experience in gene therapy drug development and commercialization with the world-class UT Southwestern Gene Therapy Program to quickly and efficiently build an extensive, AAV gene therapy pipeline focused on both rare and large-market indications. Together, we leverage our fully integrated platform—an engine for new cures—to dramatically improve patients` lives.

Mersana

Mersana is rewriting the rules for immunoconjugate therapies by leveraging our Fleximer platform to create precisely targeted and highly tailored drugs that radically improve patients` lives. Our Fleximer platform allows us to custom design an ADC with specific properties to overcome limitations of current ADC approaches and increase the drug`s chances of effectively attacking a particular cancer. We engineer immunoconjugates to deliver industry-leading payloads of an array of anti-tumor agents directly to cancerous cells, controlling when, where and how those agents are released. Because we can safely deliver higher quantities of therapeutic payloads directly to a tumor, Mersana`s ADC therapies have the potential to more effectively treat broader populations of cancer patients while significantly reducing the side effects associated with many of today`s cancer treatments.
