able cerebral
Able Cerebral is currently apply phase III clinical study with FDA for its controlled release of brain energy product. The product has shown remarkable therapeutic effectiveness for mid-stage and early stage Alzheimer's disease.
Able Cerebral is also developing a game changing, non-invasive medical device that will consolidate and recovery of brain memory for mid-stage and late stage Alzheimer's disease.

Biofilm is the first resistance response of microorganisms to protect themselves against environmental stresses and is associated with most infections and diseases. Removal of biofilm by surface scraping, UV, heat, biocides and antibiotics, etc. signal to the underlying microorganisms when and how fast to build a thicker biofilm shield.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) associate biofilm with 90% of hospital-acquired infections, such as those caused by contamination on indwelling medical devices, ventilators, and water and air systems. The CDC recently reported that 20% of U.S. COVID deaths were due to these secondary infections. Additional life-threatening infections are increasingly traced to biofilm in air and water systems in institutional and commercial buildings and homes. For example, Legionnaire’s Disease, which claimed 17 lives, was traced to biofilm in a hotel’s air conditioners that became aerosolized and inhaled. It is no coincidence that every pathogen on the CDC and WHO lists of urgent threats, pandemic threats, and bioterrorist threats is a biofilm-former. Every drug-resistant “Superbug” strain is a biofilm-former and is considered incurable. Additionally, several microbial species are captures in the same biofilm, increasing the incidence of horizontal gene transfer (Li et al., 2001; Angles et al., 1993; Dunny et al., 1995) and spawning the emergence of new antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) strains.
There are few remedies for biofilm. Physical removal (sterilization, scraping, UV) works for a short-term (e.g., biofilm was recorded on a titanium plate within 30 seconds of sterilization). Biocides (antiseptics, disinfectants, antimicrobials, and antibiotics) are designed to kill free-floating (planktonic), actively growing microorganisms, and the dose of needed to disrupt a biofilm is approximately 1000x the concentrations that are effective against planktonic bacteria (Raffa et al., 2003), which is a dose that is lethal to humans. The overuse of biocides and antibiotics has contributed to the emergence of the AMR Superbugs – and left a cumulative and persistent environmental footprint. Natural antimicrobials, such as silver and other metals, are expensive and eventually trigger the formation of thicker biofilm, resulting in the loss of efficacy over time.

AlephBot
AlephBot is developing a new paradigm in healthcare, the procedure monitor.
The solution helps medical teams maximize treatment efficiency during and after medical procedures (e.g., resuscitation, labor, general anesthesia). It provides the team members with valuable real-time information that is adaptive to their actions and to the procedure’s stage, even if they are under pressure or can’t recall procedure steps by heart. AlephBot also automatically documents the medical procedure, which serves for both medical education and medico-legal purposes.
** AlephBot uniqueness **
We capture the human perspective of a procedure by analyzing the relevant info from the on-going structural medical conversation. We add this layer to the data collected from other sources.
Therefore, we gain higher accuracy of the analyzed medical situation, which enables us to identify the procedure stage and provide meaningful info, in real-time.
** Status **
AlephBot is developing its core technology. The company, pre-seed funded, was selected to the DRIVE accelerator at the Technion (Israel institute of Technology), and received grants from the Israel Innovation Authority.
AlephBot cooperates with big and small hospitals from day one. This serves our intention to increase treatment efficiency both in mega-hospitals in big cities and in smaller ones in the periphery and rural areas.
AlephBot is active in its target markets (Germany, France, Italy and the US) and won several national and international (France, Germany, Denmark) events and competitions. The company is still not active in China - an opportunity!
** Next steps **
We are currently looking for seed investment to finalize our core technology development and bring the product to clinical trial stage in two years. Sales are planned in three years, post regulation clearance.

Allevetix team had developed the NobiX System. It is a non-surgical, fully-reversible, and natural treatment designed to mimic gastric bypass surgery's effects without any need for cuts, ablations, or permanent changes to the patient anatomy. It consists of a safe and non-invasive implant that prevents food contact with a section of the small intestine linked to hormone abnormality in metabolic diseases.
In a matter of months, the NobiX can naturally reduce body weight by 20% and lower HbA1C levels. The effects of the Nobix System begin immediately with patients feeling more energetic and less prone to symptoms of metabolic disease.
The NobiX System allows patients to recover naturally from metabolic diseases by promoting healing and balance in the duodenum through the avoidance of contact and metabolic reactions in this intestinal tract section. The NobiX can be removed and replaced anytime during the patient’s recovery. It is designed to assist patients with balancing metabolic disorders without any necessary changes to their lifestyle.

Our lead product is Zindol® which has successfully completed a Phase 2/3 clinical trial as an adjuvant to conventional 5-HT3 anti-emetics in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Other clinical products under development are APH-0812 for HIV latency and APH-1104 for Alzheimer’s disease. We have several preclinical leads in development for prostate, breast and pancreatic cancer, cancer pain and infectious diseases.
Our lead platform is CFI™ for the manufacture of virus-free biologics such as convalescent COVID-19 plasma, human plasma proteins and monoclonal antibodies as well as viral vaccines against influenza. Our drug discover discovery platform is being harnessed to develop antiviral therapeutics against the novel coronavirus and our nanotechnology platforms are being used to improve the delivery of HIV latency and Alzheimer’s disease therapeutics.
We are raising capital to conduct pivotal Phase 3 clinical trials of Zindol® for CINV to complete clinical development of Zindol and file an NDA with the FDA. In subsequent financings, which will include an IPO, we plan to raise an additional capital to commercialize Zindol® for CINV and develop other indications.

The mechanism of action of our lead drug, Ag5, targets cancer cells generating high levels of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). High ROS tumours are, in general, untreatable. This group of cancers includes KRAS-mutation driven cancers, which comprise around 30% of all cancer cases, and the worst prognosis group. There is currently no treatment for KRAS mutant cancers, which lead to more than 1 million deaths worldwide every year.
Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), the commonest primary brain cancer, is also a high-ROS cancer, despite the absence of mutated KRAS. There have been no new treatment options in GBM for 20 years, and prognosis is poor-averaging 18 months.
We have a follow-on compound and a pipeline of innovative molecules addressing both cancer and non-cancerous conditions.
We are raising a series A round which will allow us to gain clinical proof of concept.
