副主任Connexin Therapeutics Ltd.
Connexin Therapeutics raised ~£150,000 in Seed financing in early 2019. These funds are being used to synthesize and test novel small molecules in animal models of glaucoma. Selected results from these studies are presented in this document. These compounds are based on a molecule which has already demonstrated efficacy in mouse models of glaucoma. Thus, these data supplement and extend the work already published.
We are currently raising ~£2,000,000 to expand our synthesis and optimize our lead compounds. After ~8-10 quarters of work we anticipate having a library of patentable compounds which are highly selective for our target, backed by cell and animal data. We may also have a second compound which inhibits a different retinal target for a different set of conditions. Future financing rounds will take one or both leads into formulation development, safety studies, and clinical trials, while also fueling our expansion into other indications with this same mechanism of action.

VP of Sales and OperationsMira Life Science Ventures
Mira Life Science Ventures was established to change the paradigm for investment, incubation and development of new disruptive and game-changing technologies in the life sciences. Mira LSV will invest in medical devices, therapeutics, diagnostics, enabling technologies and digital healthcare. Mira LSV will focus its efforts in areas of significant unmet medical needs such as cancer, neurological diseases, infectious disease, autoimmune disease, inflammatory diseases, personalized medicine, cardiovascular disease and renal diseases.
In order to change the venture investment paradigm, Mira LSV was formed to break out of the traditional venture model and move to a more flexible, nimble and shareholder-centric model to accelerate development of these break-through products and technologies and bring them to patients. Mira LSV’s highly flexible business structure, broad and diverse access to deal-flow and highly experienced management team will ensure we have a significant positive impact on our healthcare system.
Mr. Mel Rothberg
ChairmanOncoMyx Therapeutics
OncoMyx Therapeutics is developing potentially best-in-class (multi-armed, IV/systemically-delivered, precision medicine) oncolytic immunotherapies based upon the myxoma virus (MYXV) platform, and we have demonstrated mechanism of action and combinatorial efficacy (tumor growth inhibition) when dosed IV with various checkpoint inhibitors in multiple animal models. Our company has the industry’s most experienced oncolytic virus (OV) development team and an experienced SAB, and CEO Steve Potts was previously an executive at Ignyta (acquired by Roche for $1.7B). OncoMyx raised a $25M series A in June 2019 to advance our lead preclinical program to IND, and among our investors are BIVF (exited OV investment ViraTx for $244M at preclinical stage in 2018) and Jonathan Lim (Ignyta CEO & current Erasca CEO). On the heels of presenting our preclinical data at SITC and announcing the appointment of Mirati CEO Chuck Baum as our new Chairperson, OncoMyx is seeking a $50M+ series B/crossover to prepare for an IPO and focus on a future transition into a clinical-stage organization. Pasted below are links to our SITC posters and some recent Fierce and BioSpace articles focused on our company.

Chief Scientific OfficerPhyteau
Phyteau is developing an innovative, new class of therapeutics for diabetes, obesity, related conditions like NAFLD, NASH and prediabetes, and weight-loss. Unlike many drugs in the market today, our therapeutics are completely safe, and free of adverse side-effects.
Phyteau’s new incretin-based approach activates the body’s natural metabolic system
by triggering specialized enteroendocrine cells in the lining of the intestines to release
therapeutic levels of key hormones, including GLP-1, PYY and CCK. These boosted hormones:
1) signal insulin release,
2) reduce blood sugar levels and peaks, and HbA1c,
3) reduce appetite, food intake and weight, increase satiety,
4) slows gastric emptying and intestinal motility,
5) improve metabolism and fat thermogenesis,
6) reduce liver fat and fibrosis,
7) protect against many age-related functional declines and conditions, and
8) provide restorative and protective benefits to the cardiovascular and nervous systems and major organs
The result is safe and affordable first-line treatments that provide a powerful tool for blood sugar control, weight-loss and improving metabolism. Our technology, developed at Caltech, UCLA and Cedars Sinai Medical Center, has 3 patents awarded, 5 more pending, with more planned.
Phyteau’s deep technology platform and portfolio of agents allows us to address growing unmet global needs in a variety of markets. We have 3 pharmaceutical products in development as well as breakthrough medical and functional food products and other consumer health & nutrition products.
