PACT Pharma is an independent, privately funded company recently launched by Arcus and scientific founders Jim Heath (Caltech), Toni Ribas (UCLA) and David Baltimore (Caltech). PACT`s vision is to be the leader in creating, developing and commercializing cell-based therapies for the cure of cancer. Our mission is to leverage technology developed in the laboratories of Jim Heath and David Baltimore to advance the feasibility, affordability and clinical utilization of personalized neoantigen-specific adoptive cell therapy for cancer. PACT is developing personalized adoptive T cell therapies for the eradication of solid tumors. The identification of neo-epitopes that serve as private mutations for each patient`s cancer creates a unique opportunity to engineer autologous T cells that target and kill tumors expressing these neo-antigens. PACT utilizes technology to identify T cells that recognize the neo-epitope. The unique T-cell receptor (TCR) sequences obtained from these neo-epitope-reactive cells are then engineered into T cells from the patient`s own blood to produce PACT`s therapeutic product: a tsunami of fresh, active T cells that, following infusion into the patient, recognize and attack each patient`s cancer cells.
Carl Greenblatt founded G&W Laboratories, Inc. in 1919 upon his return from military service as a pharmacist with US forces in World War I. While establishing a reputation as an innovative specialist in suppository dosage forms, Carl guided G&W Laboratories with an uncompromising commitment to product integrity and customer service. In 1945, Carl’s son, Burton, also a registered pharmacist, returned from military service in World War II and joined the small but growing company. During the post-war years, G&W expanded its product line beyond suppositories, into creams, ointments, gels and liquids. G&W moved to a larger state-of-the-art laboratory and production facility, which now exceeds 180,000 square feet in South Plainfield, New Jersey. Continuing the high ethical standards and customer focus established by Carl and his son Burton Greenblatt, G&W is still family owned and operated. Burton’s son, Ronald, who joined the company in 1978 and now serves as Chief Executive Officer; and Ronald’s son, Aaron, who joined the company in 2009 after earning his Pharm.D. In addition to strong family ties the family hired Kurt Orlofski, who joined G&W as President and Chief Operating Officer in 2009.
