Mersana is rewriting the rules for immunoconjugate therapies by leveraging our Fleximer platform to create precisely targeted and highly tailored drugs that radically improve patients` lives. Our Fleximer platform allows us to custom design an ADC with specific properties to overcome limitations of current ADC approaches and increase the drug`s chances of effectively attacking a particular cancer. We engineer immunoconjugates to deliver industry-leading payloads of an array of anti-tumor agents directly to cancerous cells, controlling when, where and how those agents are released. Because we can safely deliver higher quantities of therapeutic payloads directly to a tumor, Mersana`s ADC therapies have the potential to more effectively treat broader populations of cancer patients while significantly reducing the side effects associated with many of today`s cancer treatments.
AgriMetis discovers, develops, and delivers innovative crop protection products. Our scientific approach is multidisciplinary and integrated which allows AgriMetis to exploit areas of chemical space and production routes that are inaccessible to others. The AgriMetis platform delivers rapid, efficient, and optimal solutions to challenges in crop protection by bringing innovative products and their production processes to the market faster for the $56 billion agricultural chemical industry.
ZielBio is an early-stage biotechnology company that identifies novel high value disease targets and develops therapeutic interventions to improve patient outcomes. Our proprietary drug discovery platform Zielfind™ combines the power of functional, high throughput screening with large content data analytics to identify high value targets. We have a promising pipeline of therapies and targets, including lead compound ZB131, a proprietary humanized monoclonal antibody against cell surface plectin (CSP) a cancer target identified through Zielfind™.
Our mission is to create a new generation of smarter medicines that outmaneuver complex diseases in ways previously inconceivable. To accomplish this mission, we are building a synthetic biology platform that could enable us to program next-generation cell and gene therapies with what we refer to as “gene circuits”. These gene circuits, which are created from novel and proprietary combinations of DNA sequences, are intended to reprogram cells with biological logic to sense inputs, compute decisions and respond to their cellular environments. We are designing gene circuits to improve the “intelligence” of cell and gene therapies in order to enhance their therapeutic effectiveness against a broad range of diseases that conventional medicines do not readily address.
Aquabio is a Arlington, MA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
