Aldevron provides contract manufacturing and scientific services. We specialize in plasmid DNA, protein production, and antibody generation. PLASMID DNA PRODUCTION With the successful completion of over 50,000 projects, we have developed unsurpassed expertise in plasmid manufacturing. Using proprietary technology, Aldevron manufactures DNA for a wide range of research, preclinical, clinical, and diagnostic applications (1 mg to 100 g). PROTEIN PRODUCTION Aldevron offers a wide range of protein services including host cell optimization, expression screening, process development, contract production, enzyme and antibody assay design, and more. Proteins produced by Aldevron are used for a wide range of agriculture and biomedical applications from research grade to full cGMP. ANTIBODY GENERATION GENOVAC Antibody Technology supports all project types from reagent antibodies to diagnostic and therapeutic applications with high success rates. Based on many years of experience, our immunization technology has been developed to cater for all protein targets where other methods have failed (including e.g. GPCRs). Our custom antibodies have been validated in over 130 publications and patents for more than 500 clients worldwide. Additional services include antibody processing, production, labeling, characterization and sequencing.
Virobay is focused on the development and commercialization of novel drugs through the utilization of small molecule inhibitors of cysteine proteases, a diverse class of enzyme proteases, for a variety of conditions, including neuropathic pain, autoimmune diseases and fibrosis. The foundation of Virobay's proprietary cathepsin platform and the Virobay management team were spun-out from Celera Genomics, which was then a leader in cathepsin research. Virobay's clinical pipeline currently includes product candidates in neuropathic pain, dermatology, autoimmune disease and fibrosis.
Karius is a life sciences company focused on generating genomic insights for infectious diseases with a non-invasive blood test that helps clinicians make rapid treatment decisions. By mapping each patient`s microbial landscape from a single blood draw, Karius moves closer to a vision of a world where infectious disease is no longer a major threat to human health.
Santen Inc. is a Napa, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Inovio is a biotechnology company focused on rapidly bringing to market precisely designed DNA medicines to treat, cure, and protect people from diseases associated with HPV, cancer, and infectious diseases. Inovio is the first and only company to have clinically demonstrated that a DNA medicine can be delivered directly into cells in the body via a proprietary smart device to safely produce a robust immune response to destroy and clear high-risk HPV 16 and 18, which are responsible for 70% of cervical cancer, 90% of anal cancer and 69% of vulvar cancer. In addition to HPV, Inovio`s optimized plasmid design and delivery technology have been demonstrated to consistently activate robust and fully functional T cell and antibody responses against targeted cancers and pathogens. Inovio`s most advanced clinical program, VGX-3100, is in Phase 3 development for the treatment of HPV-related cervical pre-cancer. Also in development are Phase 2 immuno-oncology programs targeting HPV-related cancers, GBM, and prostate cancer, as well as externally funded vaccine development programs in Zika, MERS, Lassa, HIV, and COVID-19. Partners and collaborators include Advaccine, ApolloBio Corporation, AstraZeneca, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, GeneOne Life Science, HIV Vaccines Trial Network, Medical CBRN Defense Consortium (MCDC), National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Plumbline Life Sciences, Regeneron, Roche/Genentech, University of Pennsylvania, Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, and The Wistar Institute. Inovio also is a proud recipient of 2020 Women on Boards “W” designation recognizing companies with more than 20% women on their board of directors.
