Assurex Health is a personalized medicine company that specializes in helping physicians determine the right medication for individual patients who have Behavioral Health disorders. The GeneSight analysis is based on pharmacogenomics, the study of the genetic factors that influence an individual`s response to drug treatments.
We are bringing an entirely new approach to the treatment of autoimmune disease by engineering Tregs as targeted therapies that stop immune-mediated destruction, restore homeostasis – a state of harmony – and promote repair in the affected tissues. In addition to our lead program in progressive MS, Abata has early programs in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and inclusion body myositis (IBM). We bring together industry experts and deeply engaged pioneers in Treg biology, T cell receptor and antigen discovery, disease pathogenesis, and molecular and imaging biomarkers. We are bold in our mission and purpose and aim for nothing less than a transformative impact on people`s lives.
Natural molecules or derivatives make up more than half of the current drugs on the market with applications to nearly every disease known to humans. Salicylic acid, morphine, cannabinoids and insulin are a few examples. Our specialty is in producing these, and new targets, using a fast and scalable platform based on engineered microbes.
CytoDyn is a biotechnology company focused on the clinical development and potential commercialization of humanized monoclonal antibodies for the treatment and prevention of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection. We have one of the leading monoclonal antibodies under development for HIV infection, PRO 140, which prevents viral entry into healthy T-cells by blocking the HIV co-receptor CCR5. The drug candidate is also being tested for other immunological conditions, and has been granted FDA orphan drug status for the treatment of Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who are undergoing bone marrow stem cell transplantation.
Prothena Corporation plc (Nasdaq: PRTA) Prothena is a global biotechnology company seeking to fundamentally alter the course of progressive diseases. We are a late-stage clinical company focused on the discovery, development, and commercialization of novel protein immunotherapies for the treatment of diseases that involve protein misfolding and inflammatory cell adhesion disorders. Our team has a recognized track record both for profound scientific discoveries and for the development of therapeutics that have become leading commercial products in their respective therapeutic categories. Prothena`s pipeline focuses on therapeutic monoclonal antibodies directed specifically to disease-causing proteins and our antibody-based product candidates target a number of potential indications, including AL amyloidosis (NEOD001), Parkinson’s disease and other related synucleinopathies (PRX002), ATTR amyloidosis (PRX004), and novel cell adhesion targets involved in psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis and other inflammatory diseases (PRX003). Prior to December 2012, Prothena’s business operated as part of Elan Corporation, plc. Prothena’s business consists of a substantial portion of Elan’s former drug discovery business platform. After the separation from Elan and the related distribution of our ordinary shares to Elan’s stockholders, our ordinary shares began trading on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “PRTA” on December 21, 2012.
