NextCure is a fully integrated biotechnology company discovering and developing first-in-class immunotherapy-based biologics for cancer and other diseases. The company is focused on understanding biological pathways and leveraging our FIND-IOTM technology to discover, validate and build a proprietary pipeline. We believe identifying and targeting immune pathways will promote identification of effective targets for mediating sustained immunity leading to improved outcomes for cancer patients.
Syntimmune approaches areas of high unmet medical need in a unique way. Instead of searching for novel, unproven disease biology, Syntimmune focuses on areas of science that are well understood and extensively researched. We seek new treatments that build on these areas of scientific consensus and broad applicability. In the case of our lead drug candidate, SYNT001, both the cellular pathway and the specific molecular target have been studied extensively for more than 25 years, spearheaded by the groundbreaking research of the scientific team behind Syntimmune. Building on proven areas of science enables Syntimmune to advance its drug candidates swiftly and predictably. The result is a significantly derisked approach to new drug development. More importantly, we believe our approach speeds approval of medicines for patients in areas where existing treatments involve inconvenience, dangerous side effects, or poor efficacy. In an industry that often places a premium on novelty, Syntimmune understands that creating real value comes from helping patients who are suffering with diseases for which current treatments are inadequate or nonexistent.
DBV Technologies (DBV) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering safe and effective treatments for patients with food allergies and other unmet medical needs. DBV has developed a proprietary technology platform called Viaskin®, which is based on epicutaneous immunotherapy, or EPIT®, DBV`s method of delivering biologically active compounds to the immune system. This novel mechanism of action accesses the immune system through intact skin without allowing passage of the antigen into the bloodstream. The company is also exploring Viaskin® in other areas of unmet need including vaccines, inflammatory conditions and autoimmune diseases. DBV was founded in 2002 by Dr. Pierre-Henri Benhamou, Chairman and CEO, Dr. Christophe Dupont, Chairman of DBV`s Scientific Advisory Board, and Mr. Bertrand Dupont, Chief Technology Officer.
