Plan in China
The defining characteristic of COVID era pharma and healthcare is the rise of all things digital. A critical mass of companies had been experimenting with digital pilots for some time, some more advanced and larger than others. All saw a significant boost in digital activities during the COVID-19 crisis. This included large scale webinars to engage Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs), disease education programs on a scale not seen before, all-digital new medicine launches, etc. Digital has arrived and is here to stay. Yet, offline has not yet disappeared and will continue to play an essential role. The real answer going forward will be found in the ability of i3 Consult to implement customer engagement hybrid models that build on offline and online activities to offer a true omnichannel engagement model to clients in China. We see the need to develop these opportunities in six (6) niche areas in China: 1) To strengthen retail KA management with distributors and pharmacies in China 2) Enhance commercial capabilities on broad market and retail channel 3) Better patient education to lead trend of prescription outflow from hospitals and retail channels 4) Provide HCP consultation support onsite for professional medical service 5) Improve drug availability through better collaboration and coverage with pharmacies in China 6) Enhance supply chain support by adding cold-chain capability and lower tier market coverage in China

InvivoSciences Inc. United States

InvivoSciences, Inc. (IVS) is a preclinical stage biotech company with a team of drug development experts, including Dr. Joseph Schlessinger, who developed various therapies including, a blockbuster drug - Sutent.
With an increasingly aging population with chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart failure is an urgent and critical challenge without an effective solution. There have been no successful phase III trials in worsening chronic heart failure or heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Large clinical trials required for the heart failure trials have been the bottleneck. There is clear evidence showing that genetic factors drive heart failure development. Our mission is to cure heart failure one gene at a time.
We have leveraged our advanced artificial intelligence integrated breakthrough in precision medicine discovery platform using patient-derived human micro heart on a chip, NuHeart™, to identify and validate multiple drug pipelines rapidly as well as help us to determine biomarkers and stratify the patients for a clinical trial recruitments. Our precision heart failure pipelines are at least ten times more cost-effective to develop, especially during their clinical stages. Using our platform, we have developed two pipelines of small-molecule candidates for difficult to treat, genetically defined heart failure conditions. Our Pipelines of precision medicines have the potential to deliver better outcomes for patients fighting hard to treat heritable heart disease.
Collaborative patient-driven precision medicine-based drug development empowered with our novel platform will lead to meaningfully better outcomes for heart failure patients, which we refer to as InvivoSciences’ discovery engine to develop target therapies. Our lead program includes candidates in preclinical development for monogenetic heart failures. To date, IVS raised $8.5 Million non-dilutive funding from founders, board, commercial contracts, and grants. The funds have been used to create a portfolio of assets (breakthrough discovery platform, NuHeart™, three genetically defined disease models, current discovery programs, and a strong portfolio of patents including both US and international.
To join and support our drug discovery programs forward, InvivoSciences is seeking world-class life science investors and strategic partners for our Series A round for growth capital for $10 M in two trunches for commercial growth and accelerating our drug program.

Kymeris Therapeutics Inc. Canada

Kymeris Therapeutics (Canada) has exlusive license to a ground-breaking cell-based immunotherapeutic product for clinical development in cancer. This multivalent anti-cancer platform integrates multiple mechanisms in one modifiable platform. The product is tumor-homing, disables the local tumor defenses and expresses encoded biodrugs in the cancer - but not systemically.

*  We are seeking partners with small molecule or antibody (or any encodable peptide or protein) that would have an enabling platform compared to intravenous or intratumoral formulations.

*  We are also seeking strategic investors in the platform that has extremely high potential in future products, adaptable against almost any solid cancer.

------------------------------------------------------------------

The platform can enable, or enhance, additional small molecule, antibody, peptide or cytokine agents.  It is a preclinical late-stage firm that has discovered and developed a First-in-Class immunotherapeutic platform based on non-pathogenic eukaryotes (nucleated cells, non-viral, non-bacterial). Our platform is original with the first scientific paper just published in November 2020 by the Journal of Immunotherapy of Cancer (BMJ), and our first scientific presentation at the 2020 Annual Meeting of the SITC where we presented recent report on a derivative that secreted human IL-15 within tumor, but devoid of serum detection of the cytokine.

The platform would be a paradigm shift from "reductive" (targeted, mono-mechanism) approaches, and can be encoded with additional molecular therapies to more comprehensively face the complex of solid cancer defenses. Encoding any biological agent (small molecule, antibody, antigen, cytokine...), could enable that agent for a wider scope of applications,  enhanced effect and much safer profile.  In addition, the platform shows abscopal effect, an ability to reach tumors after administration from a distance (subcutaneous or mucosal).

The platform has shown the following characteristics:

1. Tumor-tropism / Cancer-agnostic. Homing to tumor occurred in the absence of a cancer antigen marker (TAA or TSA), and may even work in tumors that are not easily "targetable", such as "cold", lacking cancer markers, heterogeneic or mutating tumors. One oncologist remarked, "This turns "cold" tumors "hot" ".The agents have had effect at distance from tumor site when administered subcutaneously or mucosally. 

 2. Tumor-infiltration + TME counteraction. The agents bear a specialized "universal key" to gain entry into mammalian cell in an active process; no specific  receptor needed. In addition, the agents are able to reprogram tolerogenic cells into a state of immune competence i.e. to overcome cancer-induced immune suppression within the tumor.

3. Intra-cancer delivery of any payload/s. Obligate intracellular microbes, the agents infect cancer cells and replicate, expressing encoded biodrugs. The replication continues as long as there is cancer tissue to infect and/or the TME has not been disabled.  Any agents outside of the TME were naturally cleared in under 10 days.
