Navitor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., is a biopharmaceutical company developing novel medicines by targeting cellular nutrient signaling pathways. The companys proprietary drug discovery platform targets mTORC1, which responds to and integrates the cells response to nutrient availability and plays a key role in protein synthesis and cellular growth. Navitors therapeutics are designed to selectively modulate the cellular signals that are aberrant in disease processes caused by the dysregulation of mTORC1 activity to address a wide range of diseases, including metabolic, neurodegenerative, autoimmune and musculoskeletal diseases, as well as several rare disorders. The companys founding intellectual property is based on the groundbreaking discoveries related to the mTORC1 pathway and nutrient signaling mechanisms by Dr. David Sabatini at The Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. The company is backed by leading financial and corporate investors, including Polaris Partners, Atlas Venture, Johnson and Johnson Development Corporation, SR One and The Longevity Fund.
Metavention is a venture-backed medical device company founded in 2012 that is developing a novel glucose control therapy for patients with type 2 diabetes. Metabolic Neuromodulation Therapy (MNT) is a simple cardiovascular procedure intended to modulate sympathetic nervous system activity in patients with Type 2 diabetes for the purpose of lowering blood glucose levels. MNT was developed based on published scientific data and extensive animal studies suggesting a link between elevated sympathetic nerve activity in the metabolic system and increased levels of blood glucose. MNT is currently being studied in human clinical trials and represents a potentially important new treatment option for patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
