MiMedx is a biopharmaceutical company developing, manufacturing and marketing regenerative biologics utilizing human placental allografts for multiple sectors of healthcare. “Innovations in Regenerative Medicine” is the framework behind our mission to provide physicians with products and tissues to help the body heal itself. We process human placental tissue utilizing our proprietary PURION® process methodology, among other processes, to produce safe and effective allografts by employing aseptic processing techniques in addition to terminal sterilization. Since our founding, research and development has been the cornerstone of our organization. As a result, we have grown to be the leader in placental based products with over 40 scientific and clinical publications contained in our Compendium, six completed and published Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs), and 30 ongoing clinical studies. MiMedx has over 45 placental tissue issued and allowed patents on our products and technologies, with over 90 pending applications. We have continued to demonstrate this leadership by publishing a Primer to educate the medical community on the regenerative aspects of amniotic membrane allografts. MiMedx has supplied over 1 million placental tissue-based allografts to date for application in the Wound Care, Burn, Surgical, Orthopedic, Spine, Sports Medicine, Ophthalmic and Dental sectors of healthcare.
Spring Bank Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SBPH) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of a novel class of therapeutics using our proprietary small molecule nucleic acid hybrid (SMNH) chemistry platform. SMNH compounds are small segments of nucleic acids that the company designs to selectively target and modulate the activity of specific proteins implicated in various disease states. Spring Bank is developing its most advanced SMNH product candidate, inarigivir soproxil (formerly referred to as SB 9200), for the treatment of viral diseases, including hepatitis B virus (HBV), and other SMNH product candidates, including SB 11285, the company`s lead immunotherapeutic agent for the treatment of selected cancers through the activation of the STimulator of Interferon Genes, or STING, pathway.
