Aruvant`s mission is to bring hope to patients living with rare diseases by developing life changing and potentially curative gene therapies, with a near-term focus on sickle cell disease. Aruvant is a part of the Roivant family of companies. We have a talented team with extensive experience in the development, manufacturing and commercialization of gene therapy products. We have an active research program with a lead product candidate in development for individuals suffering from sickle cell disease (SCD). Our lead product candidate, ARU-1801, an investigational lentiviral gene therapy, is currently in a clinical trial as a potential one-time curative treatment for SCD. Preliminary clinical data from the ongoing Phase 1/2 study demonstrated durable efficacy in reducing the negative impacts of SCD. We are preparing for the launch of our pivotal clinical trial in SCD. We continue to look for new people to add to our talented team.
CODA Biotherapeutics` revolutionary chemogenetic platform aims to control the activity of cells to treat disease. With chemogenetics, the goal is to modify a target cell population using gene therapy to express a tunable `switch` protein. Cells modified with the `switch` can be activated or inactivated in a dose-dependent manner by a subsequently administered small molecule therapeutic, an effect that should only occur in the modified cells.
Epic Sciences, Inc. is developing novel diagnostics to personalize and advance the treatment and management of cancer. Epic`s mission is to enable the rapid and non-invasive detection of genetic and molecular changes in cancer throughout a patient`s journey. The company was founded on a powerful platform to identify and characterize rare cells, including circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Our technology helps match patients to targeted therapies and monitor for drug resistance, so that the best treatment path can be chosen at every clinical decision point. Today, we partner with leading pharmaceutical companies and major cancer centers around the world. Epic`s goal is to commercialize our technology to increase the success rate of cancer drugs in clinical trials and improve patient outcomes by providing physicians with real-time information to guide treatment choices.
Ignyta, located in San Diego, California, is a biotechnology company developing precision medicine with integrated Rx/Dx solutions for cancer patients. Its goal is to discover and develop revolutionary new drugs that target activated genes in cancer cells for the customized treatment of cancer patients. The company's present focus is on the development of RXDX-101, its proprietary oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets solid tumor indications, and advancing its novel Spark discovery programs that leverage its proprietary cancer genomic and epigenomic knowledge bases
