Appia Bio is an early stage biotechnology company based in Los Angeles, California. Founded in 2020, Appia Bio is focused on discovering and developing engineered allogeneic cell therapies across a broad array of indications with a scalable technology platform that increases access for patients. With its ACUA (Appia Cells Utilized for Allogeneic) technology platform, Appia Bio leverages the biology of lymphocyte development with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and T-cell receptor (TCR) gene engineering to generate CAR-engineered invariant natural killer T (CAR-iNKT) cell subtypes from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).
Bio-Path is a biotechnology company developing targeted therapies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and other challenging cancers. The company`s lead product candidate, prexigebersen (Liposomal Grb2 Antisense), formerly BP1001, is currently being assessed in a Phase 2 clinical study in 54 people with previously untreated AML who are not eligible for or who have decided to forego intensive induction therapy because of their age or fragile health.
Pillar Biosciences aims to "Make precision medicine the first option for every patient" by developing and manufacturing targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based assays and software for today`s high-throughput specialty NGS laboratories. Through our SLIMamp technology (a multiplex overlapping PCR chemistry) Pillar offers a streamlined, robust and economical workflow with high mapping and on-target metrics. In conjunction with the SLIMamp assay technology, Pillar Biosciences has an informatics pipeline called the Pillar Variant Analysis Toolkit (PiVAT) that is not only highly accurate, enabling somatic variant calls down to 1% allele frequency without use of Unique Identifiers (UIDs), but also fast and efficient, returning valuable sample data quickly. For higher-sensitivity applications such as cell-free DNA analyses, Pillar Biosciences has developed a dedicated assay technology for cell-free DNA that uses UID methodology, to work with the PiVAT pipeline to drive sensitivity down to 0.1%-0.2%. Current as of May 25, 2021.
The DNA Repair Company is a Cambridge, MA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, & Biotech sector.
Curran Biotech is a materials manufacturing company that provides nano coatings to biochemical, chemical, energy and construction industries including water-repellent coatings for fabrics, canvas, tarps, and glass. Our hydrophobic coatings are specifically designed to improve the nature and quality of the substrates by preventing water-substrate interactions. The technology was developed in the materials/chemistry labs (Institute for Nano Energy) of the physics department at the University of Houston and started commercialization in 2013.
