Singh Biotechnology United States

We at Singh Biotechnology (SBT) are interested in meeting with you to exploring possible opportunities for partnering/in-licensing/scientific collaboration.

 

SBT is a start-up biotech company established in 2014. We discover/develop unique and proprietary therapeutic single domain antibodies (sdAbs) for the treatment of a variety of cancers, autoimmune, ophthalmological, and viral diseases by leveraging our propriety novel technology platform. Using this technology platform SBT has been able to generate therapeutic sdAbs that specifically target intracellular molecules of interest that play an important role in the pathogenesis of disease(s). Our lead therapeutic (SBT-100) is a bi-specific sdAbs that specifically targets and inhibits intracellular KRAS and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) proteins.

Assets Information 1
SBT-100 is a monomeric single domain antibody (sdAb) that binds KRAS and STAT3 with nanomolar affinity, inhibits the GTPase activity of KRAS, downregulates P-ERK, inhibits the growth of eleven aggressive human cancer in vitro, and suppresses the growth of human cancers in vivo. SBT-100 is the first sdAb to penetrate the cell membrane and give a therapeutic effect in cancers. It also crosses the blood brain barrier (BBB). Through its anti-STAT3 effects, SBT-100 downregulates the expression of VEGF and PD-L1. The significant suppression of PD-L1 expression caused by SBT-100 emphasizes its immunotherapeutic potential. With our preclinical data, the US FDA has given SBT-100 Orphan Drug Designation for pancreatic cancer and osteosarcoma. In addition, we voluntarily requested a Pre-IND review of our triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) program by the FDA. The Pre-IND briefing packet received a favorable review by the FDA of the TNBC data, our SBT-100 manufacturing process, our proposed IND-enabling toxicology studies in rats and monkeys, and our proposed Phase I studies in patients. All of the patents and technology regarding SBT-100 and our other assets are internal to our company. Nothing has been licensed from an outside entity. The patents for SBT-100 and all our other assets have been approved by the U.S.A., Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Canada, Australia, and every country in Europe. These patents are being processed in every other major country and region in the world.
