RenovoRx is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on fighting cancer through the localized treatment of difficult to treat tumors via our proprietary RenovoRx Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (RenovoTAMP®) therapy platform. RenovoTAMP utilizes approved chemotherapeutics with validated mechanisms of action and well-established safety and side effect profiles, with the goal of increasing their efficacy, improving their safety, and widening their therapeutic window. Our lead product candidate, RenovoGem, is a combination of gemcitabine and our patented delivery system regulated by the FDA as a novel oncology drug product to treat unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). Targeted therapy via RenovoTAMP platform safely and without transmission to non-targeted areas, is our primary focus. RenovoRx`s patent portfolio currently includes seven issued US patents and one European patent for ourtechnology with several additional patents pending in the US, Europe, and Asia. After demonstrating a median survival of 27.9 months in Phase 1/2 clinical trials vs. 12-15 months reported in historical studies for this patient population, RenovoRx secured two separate Orphan Drug Designations from the FDA for intra-arterial gemcitabine: pancreatic cancer and bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma). This therapy is being further studied in the currently enrolling Phase 3 TIGeR-PaC clinical trial in pancreatic cancer and has a primary endpoint of overall survival and several secondary endpoints, including quality of life. The Phase 3 TIGeR-PaC clinical trial is enrolling unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer patients (LAPC) in the United States.
Founded in 2017 by Flagship Pioneering, Cygnal Therapeutics is the first company to build a platform to develop drugs in the field of exoneural biology. Exoneural biology is broadly implicated in human health and disease. Fueled by our dynamic Exoneural Medicine Platform™, we are creating new medicines across multiple therapeutic areas, starting with cancer and inflammatory diseases.
Aptinyx Inc. (formerly Naurex Inc.) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on discovery and development of transformative therapies for challenging disorders of the brain and nervous system. Aptinyx has a proven platform for discovering compounds that enhance synaptic plasticity, or strengthen the network for neural cell communication. Molecules discovered by Aptinyx achieve this through a novel mechanism that modulates NMDA receptors, resulting in drugs that are both highly effective and well tolerated. This mechanism has applicability across a number of brain and nervous system disorders. Aptinyx is rapidly advancing promising drug candidates into clinical development for indications with high unmet medical need.
