Lion Biotechnologies (LBIO) is focused on the development and commercialization of novel cancer immunotherapies based on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL). Under a collaborative research and development agreement with Dr. Steven A. Rosenberg at the National Cancer Institute, we are investigating our our lead product candidate, LN-144, in the treatment of stage 4 metastatic melanoma. In clinical trials, LN-144 has demonstrated curative potential in patients with metastatic melanoma, and it may also be applicable to a wide range of other solid tumors. As we continue advancing our current clinical programs in collaboration with NCI, Moffitt Cancer Center and MD Anderson, we are also developing next-generation TIL products and an optimized manufacturing process that will enable the production of highly potent, engineered cells at a significantly reduced cost. With unique and versatile technology, promising clinical programs, strong intellectual property, high-profile collaborations and seasoned leadership, Lion is committed to elevating hope and treatment standards for patients, while creating exceptional value for its shareholders.

CRISPR Therapeutics is a leading gene-editing company focused on the development of transformative medicines using its proprietary CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing platform. CRISPR/Cas9 is a revolutionary technology that allows for precise, directed changes to genomic DNA. Our multi-disciplinary team of world-class researchers and drug developers is working to translate this technology into breakthrough human therapeutics in a number of serious diseases. Our lead programs in beta-thalassemia and sickle cell disease have advanced to IND/CTA-enabling studies with a CTA filing planned by the end of 2017, and we are advancing additional programs in ex vivo and in vivo disease areas. In addition to our fully-owned programs, our strategic collaborations with Bayer AG and Vertex Pharmaceuticals expand our portfolio and enable us with unique capabilities. Through our private financings, partnerships, and IPO we have raised >$400M to fund and accelerate our portfolio. We have licensed the foundational CRISPR/Cas9 patent estate for human therapeutic use from our scientific founder, Dr. Emmanuelle Charpentier, who co-invented the application of CRISPR/Cas9 for gene editing. Our company is headquartered in Zug, Switzerland with R&D operations in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA and some business operations in London, United Kingdom.
