Founded in 2011, Intact Vascular located in Wayne, PA is a privately held medical device company that develops minimally invasive peripheral vascular products. The Tack Endovascular System™ is designed to optimize peripheral balloon angioplasty results in the treatment of peripheral artery disease. This technology will offer physicians a new treatment option for treating peripheral artery disease. Intact Vascular is committed to developing safe, efficacious and easy to use products for patients with vascular disease and for the physicians who treat them.
AMAG is a biopharmaceutical company focused on bringing therapeutics to market that provide clear benefits and help improve people’s lives. Headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts, we work to develop and deliver important therapeutics, conduct clinical research in areas of unmet need and create education and support programs for the patients and families we serve. Our products support the health of patients in the areas of maternal health, anemia management and cancer supportive care. Through CBR®, we also help families to preserve newborn stem cells, which are used today in transplant medicine for certain cancers and blood, immune and metabolic disorders, and have the potential to play a valuable role in the ongoing development of regenerative medicine.
Batu Biologics is a biotechnology-based pharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel therapies that target the “Achilles Heel of Cancer:” the tumor blood vessels. Batu’s flagship therapeutic, ValloVax™, is an angiogenesis targeting cancer vaccine in the late stages of preclinical development. Batu Biologics plans to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for ValloVax in Q1 of 2015, seeking clinical approval to treat patients with lung cancer.
Aravive, Inc., is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing new therapies that target important survival pathways for both solid tumors as well as hematologic malignancies. Our primary therapeutic focus is the GAS6-AXL pathway, where AXL receptor signaling plays a critical role in multiple types of malignancies by promoting metastasis and cancer cell survival. Our technology, originated in the laboratories of Drs. Amato Giaccia and his colleagues at Stanford University, uses genetic screening to identify critical targets for the development of therapeutic molecules for cancer therapy while sparing healthy cells. This strategy is designed to enable us to interrupt oncogenic signals and, using our high-affinity decoy receptors, outcompete cancer`s ability to grow, metastasize and acquire resistance to treatments. We believe our unique cancer therapies may hold promise as a monotherapy or in combination with other cancer treatments, augmenting the anti-tumor activity of radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immuno-therapeutics and cancer vaccines. By targeting advanced or metastatic disease, our approach has the potential to significantly improve survival rates while simultaneously reducing toxicity in cancer patients.
