STAT PHARMACEUTICALS is a Santee, CA-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, & Biotech sector.
Rani Therapeutics has developed the RaniPill™, a platform technology for the oral delivery of biologic drugs. Millions of patients with chronic conditions require biologic drugs that today can only be injected. These injections are painful and inconvenient and often affect both patient compliance and quality of life. The pharma industry has been searching for decades to convert injectables into pills, and we believe the solution is the RaniPill™ capsule. We have demonstrated bioavailability similar to subcutaneous injections in both preclinical and clinical studies. Rani has an internal pipeline of molecules, and active collaborations with Novartis and Takeda. The research and technology behind Rani Therapeutics came out of InCube Labs, a multi-disciplinary life sciences R&D lab focused on breakthrough medical innovations. InCube is led by Mir Imran, a prolific medical inventor, entrepreneur, and investor.
Our mission is to create a new generation of smarter medicines that outmaneuver complex diseases in ways previously inconceivable. To accomplish this mission, we are building a synthetic biology platform that could enable us to program next-generation cell and gene therapies with what we refer to as “gene circuits”. These gene circuits, which are created from novel and proprietary combinations of DNA sequences, are intended to reprogram cells with biological logic to sense inputs, compute decisions and respond to their cellular environments. We are designing gene circuits to improve the “intelligence” of cell and gene therapies in order to enhance their therapeutic effectiveness against a broad range of diseases that conventional medicines do not readily address.
