EpicentRx United States

EpicentRx is an immuno-oncology company whose focus is to identify and develop less toxic and more effective immunotherapy-based anti-cancer treatments that are active not only as single agents, but that also sensitize tumors to the cytotoxic effects of chemotherapy, radiation and immune checkpoint blockade. EpicentRx's lead program is among a portfolio of novel dinitroazetidine-based drugs that downregulate CD47 – SIRPα to alter the tumor microenvironment and optimize immune responses as well as normalize the tumor vasculature for better drug and oxygen delivery, and has been tested in several clinical trials including an ongoing Phase 3 study in SCLC. The company is also advancing multiple programs through its smart virus AdAPT platform, including three anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccines, a TGF-beta "trap" starting Phase 1, and various personalized cancer vaccines that have shown to be effective in both chemotherapy and immune resistant tumors.

Genervon Biopharmaceuticals United States

There is a high unmet need for central nervous system (CNS) diseases in the growing aging population. Chronic inflammation is associated with a broad spectrum of neurodegenerative diseases related to aging. Genervon is bringing GM6, a new clinical-stage drug asset, to regulatory approval and commercialization in China for CNS diseases including Parkinson’s disease (PD), Alzheimer’s disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and other neurodegenerative diseases. Most clinical trials for drugs developed through the traditional single-target drug approach have failed to treat the complex neurological disorders that involve multiple interrelated pathways.

 

GM6 is an innovative first-in-class regulator peptide drug in clinical stage. Genervon Biopharmaceuticals discovered an endogenous embryonic-stage regulator, Motoneuronotrophic Factor (MNTF), and developed from it the pleiotropic drug GM6. GM6 is neither an antibody nor a single-target agonist or antagonist. It is a multi-target regulator which simultaneously acts upon multiple extracellular receptors to modulate a series of signaling pathways mediating inflammation and pro-survival responses in both CNS and immune system. Genervon has validated GM6’s target engagement of multiple targets and druggability. GM6 has been de-risked for toxicity in animal studies and safety in three clinical trials. IND documents filed with the FDA can be used to support regulatory filing in China for clinical trials. Genervon is interested to partner through licensing or merger and acquisition. A complete CMC package is ready for technology transfer.
