Islet Sciences is a clinical stage biotechnology company engaged in the research, development, and commercialization of new medicines and technologies for the treatment and diagnosis of metabolic disease and related indications where there is significant measurable unmet medical need. The rising incidence of obesity is associated with many obesity-related health complications, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease/steatohepatitis (NAFLD/NASH). This constellation is also recognized as the metabolic syndrome and is characterized by underlying insulin resistance. These various diseases have interrelated risk factors and markers, such that often treatment of one disease may allow new therapies and opportunities for treatment in one of these related indications. Our focused effort to develop new therapies and related diagnostics for metabolic related diseases establishes us as a recognized leader in a large and growing market.
We operate with a “No Analog” mindset—continually pushing boundaries, navigating new terrain and unleashing fresh thinking. We are committed to seeking better outcomes which compels us to ask questions that have not been asked before or remain unresolved. We are driven by a desire to create meaningful impact across business, health and society to ease the burden on people living with chronic diseases. Intarcia is a rapidly emerging biotech company dedicated to redesigning the treatment, prevention and experience of chronic disease. Our cross-disciplinary teams include forward-thinking scientists and entrepreneurs collaborating in a fast-paced environment redefining the future of medicine.
PAIGE is being built by a dedicated team of Machine Learning experts and pathologists from the leading cancer center in the US and experienced business leadership.
Frontier Medicines is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing breakthrough medicines that redefine the course of debilitating diseases. According to the American Cancer Society, 1,762,000 new cancer cases and 607,000 deaths from cancer are expected to occur in the US in 2019. Our focus is developing treatments against important cancer-causing proteins that the biopharma industry hasn`t found a way to treat (or “drug”) with pharmaceutical interventions. After decades of research, this has become one of the most critical challenges in addressing human disease and advancing oncology therapy --central to the research at Frontier Medicines. Frontier Medicines is using chemoproteomics – an innovative approach to chemically interrogate proteins in living systems – to discover and pharmacologically target new binding pockets (or “hotspots”) on proteins, making them accessible to small-molecule drug discovery and development. The company`s proprietary chemoproteomics platform also integrates advanced computational approaches and machine learning to further accelerate the path to drug discovery.
Our mission at Erasca is embedded in our name: To erase cancer. Energized by recent scientific discoveries and advances in drugging various biological drivers of cancer, we are committed to solving oncology`s hardest problems. We have assembled a proven team and joined forces with world-class collaborators who embrace our ambitious goals. In addition to our initial programs for undisclosed cancer targets, we seek to expand our pipeline through partnerships with academic scientists and biopharmaceutical companies who have revealed potential new mechanisms for precision oncology. Importantly, Erasca isn`t tied to one form of drug or any singular approach to treating cancer. By keeping an open mind about what is possible, we believe we will achieve the greatest results for patients everywhere.
