Tectonic, co-founded by Andrew Kruse and Tim Springer of Harvard Medical School, is transforming the discovery of antibodies and other biologic drugs targeting G-protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs). With our proprietary GEODe™ platform, we are targeting the most difficult, previously undruggable receptors in the class, aiming to unlock their therapeutic utility to develop new treatments for a broad range of patients with important unmet needs.
Praxis is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company translating genetic insights into the development of therapies for central nervous system, or CNS, disorders characterized by neuronal imbalance.
Providence is a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering mRNA therapeutics and vaccines with a focus on infectious diseases and oncology. Initially founded as a cancer vaccines company in 2015, in response to a worldwide need for a COVID-19 vaccine, Providence expanded its focus beyond oncology therapies to develop an mRNA vaccine for COVID-19. Providence works with multiple industry collaborators, universities, nongovernmental agencies and multiple arms of the Government of Canada to discover and develop vaccines and treatments for infectious diseases and cancer. This has resulted in the development of an mRNA vaccine platform that includes a proprietary design algorithm and proprietary, scalable manufacturing processes.
We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on accelerating biologics and small molecules through clinical development that have the potential to improve patient lives. We are a team of seasoned pharmaceutical and start-up professionals with an extensive track record of success. Our expertise is in fast, efficient and high quality drug development. Whether developing a reformulated product or a new chemical entity, our management team has expertise to identify regulatory strategies to expedite the path to approval through efficient clinical programs.
Cortendo AB is a global biopharmaceutical company founded in 1996, incorporated in Sweden, and based in the United States. Cortendo recognizes the urgent need to make new medicines available for people with orphan diseases, and the Company is committed to delivering therapies that make a difference. An orphan disease is one for which the pharmaceutical industry has not worked to make new medicines. It may be a rare disease (in the U.S. this is defined as a disease that affects fewer than 200,000 people) or a disease such as tuberculosis, cholera, typhoid or malaria that is not often diagnosed in developed countries but remains common in countries that are still developing. Cortendo’s initial strategic goal is to be the global leader in finding, developing and making medicines for people with orphan endocrine diseases, with its most advanced program in Cushing’s syndrome. Cortendo research led to the development of COR-003 (levoketoconazole) which is currently being studied in the Phase 3 global SONICS trial for the treatment of endogenous Cushing’s syndrome. COR-003 has received orphan designation from both the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Cortendo is building the capabilities and resources to independently develop and commercialize its orphan assets in key global markets and to partner non-strategic product opportunities, such as BioPancreate-2001 for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. The company also intends to leverage its commercial expertise by working with partners to acquire, develop, and commercialize late-stage or commercial assets in a select few orphan disease focus areas.
