resTORbio, Inc. is a clinical stage company, developing medicines to treat aging-related diseases and conditions. resTORbio`s lead program targets the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway to treat aging-related diseases and conditions. Initially, resTORbio is focused on developing medicines that address conditions caused by immunosenescence, the decline in immune function due to aging. resTORbio has initiated a Phase 2b trial for its lead product candidate, RTB101, evaluating its potential to reduce the incidence of respiratory tract infections (RTI) in elderly individuals at increased risk of RTI-related morbidity and mortality. resTORbio`s lead program is built upon two Phase 2a clinical studies demonstrating promising safety and efficacy results in almost 500 elderly individuals.
TruSpine is a medical device company focused on entering the $10.2 billion (US) per annum spinal device market. The Company is developing uniquely disruptive technologies to revolutionise the spinal stabilisation market, commencing with three flagship pioneering, spinal devices. The Cervi-LOK™ (for the cervical and upper thoracic spine), GRASP Laminoplasty (a treatment for decompression of the spinal cord) & Faci-LOK™ (for the lumbar and lower thoracic spine). These unique devices represent a paradigm shift in spinal fixation, by providing exceptional stabilization while not altering the bony anatomy such as screws, staples or other devices which currently dominate the spinal market. The TruSpine philosophy and mantra is one of preserving nature`s design, and as such, the devices have been designed to be safer, faster and easier to implant. The potential cost savings to patients, insurers and surgeons can be significant. The technology is minimally intrusive, minimally invasive and reversable. The first product to market will be Cervi-LOK™, and will be the first posterior cervical stabilisation device in the world which fully preserves the boney anatomy of the spine. TruSpine has a phased product development strategy, and is planning to commence initial product marketing between late 2020 to early 2021. The overall aim is to establish the TruSpine products as the go-to solutions for the spinal stabilisation market. In addition to the three flagship platform products currently under development, the company also has a pipeline of additional and complementary spinal products.
Neuralink is developing the capabilities of the brain through technological augmentation. A "neural lace” would be surgically connected to a human brain and allow a user to interact with a computer without the bandwidth challenges that come with current input methods, including keyboards, mice and trackpads. Neuralink will explore how brain interfaces might alleviate the symptoms of dangerous and chronic medical conditions.
