Accelerated Evolution Biotechnologies AEBI Ltd Israel

AEBi was established in the year 2000, and has been managed since then based on the idea that the ability to manipulate and design peptides has vastly superior advantages to many, if not any, existing and trajectory technologies of drug development. This idea is valid today as well.The basic idea is that we do not require a natural lead or a sequence (usually coming from the academia or other research) which are either not strong enough or not specific enough and difficult to manipulate in order to create a drug.
An artificial high complexity pool, representing a broad spectrum of  possibilities, manipulated by our technology, will provide the best possible solution. Such a  solution  will not be hindered or blocked by natural interactions and will be very specific to the problem.
AEBi, a development-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in discovery and development of therapeutic peptides, has developed a combinatorial biology screening platform technology (IP protected).
The major advantage is that it can be used not only to find binders to known targets, but to select the best functional molecules among them. AEBi's platform is very flexible, exploiting combinatorial biology to discover new and better lead compounds to disease targets.

Our Breakthrough SoAP Platform:
-------------------------------------------------
Our platform provides functional leads to very difficult targets (functional leads - agonist, antagonist, inhibitor, etc.), not merely those that best bind with the target.

Moreover, it allows us to develop drugs to many illnesses, among them CANCER and COVID19, and is expected to transform the drug discovery R&D phase by significantly reducing the attrition rate of new drug candidates.
This Breakthrough technology generates very specific lead compounds with greater functionality and improved pharmacological properties. Such lead Compounds will allow more effective drugs and fewer side effects. The need for such technology is acute and pressing for many reasons. The sole external requirement in the screening process is a Defined Target (usually an illness-related protein).

MuTaTo: our Multiple Targeted Comprehensive Cancer Therapy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This new cancer treatment is a personalized medicine concept, that can be also turned into a "shelf product". The main principal of it is using multiple targeting peptides connected together with a toxin. The main advantage of it is that it would lower the probability of the targeted cancer cells to develop drug-resistance due to mutations they possess, and at the same time would lower adverse effects due to avidity effect. Each cancer patient would receive a specific drug perfectly suited to his/her cancer, based on the expression profile of receptors on the outer membrane of their cancer cells. This therapy's construct production is easy and rapid. Therefore, the production cost would not be as expensive as with other biological drugs, or other sophisticated cancer treatments.
MuTaTo our Multiple Targeted Safe Cancer Therapy is DIFFERENT and UNIQUE because:
----------------------------------------------------------------
1- It is EFFECTIVE on almost all types of CANCERS because we will develop a MuTaTo molecule for every type of cancers.
2- it is SAFE on healthy cells and DOESN'T cause any suffering to patients.
3- unlike other cancer therapies that attack cancer from only one or 2 targets at most , MuTaTo is DIFFERENT because it attacks cancer from at least 3 targets so that cancer DOESN'T metastasize nor develop drug resistance.
4- MuTaTo can treat almost all types of cancers even rare one and is effective on all cancer stages even terminal ones.
5- our MuTaTo is so versatile it can be:
a) used as personalized Cancer therapy where each cancer patient would receive a specific drug perfectly suited to his/her cancer, based on the expression profile of receptors on the outer membrane of their cancer cells.
b) or it can be mass produced as a "shelf Product - Oncolytic Drug" to treat different cancers with different indications, so we will have not just one MuTaTo Drug, but a COMPLETE FAMILY OF MuTaTo DRUGS, to treat almost all types and indications of Cancers , from all stages, even rare and Terminal cancers.

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.

Yes, drug delivery programs bring EUR 130 million revenue sooner than “Rius Medical’s blood transfusion” program. However, Rius Medical’s path to becoming a market leader in healthcare in promoting excellence, innovation and good business practices, is driven by its “blood transfusion” program. The Plan in China is local Jobs in China for manufacturing of stem cells derived “blood transfusion” products. Also drug delivery via "Third-Generation red blood cells for drug delivery" that addresses Rare Diseases, Oncology and Autoimmune Diseases like type 1 diabetes, is region-specific; as in Europe, USA and China regions due to ABO blood group and other antigens being region-specific!

Trove Therapeutics, Inc. United States

Trove is a semi-virtual biotech start-up located in Rockville, Maryland, USA, developing an advanced biologic asset and seeking funding and partners to conduct clinical trials in respiratory disease. We have data and drug supply on our lead, clinical-stage biologic asset to support up to 3 clinical trials in different respiratory conditions (2 x Phase 1b/2a in COVID and lung transplant; and 1 x Phase 2 in chronic sinusitis). Our biologic, called Therabron, is a replacement for a normally abundant native protein that is deficient in our targeted indications. Replacement therapies have a high approval rate with FDA (>70%) and patients with genetic deficiencies can be selected in some trials to increase our chances of demonstrating efficacy. Therabron was safe in 3 early studies. At present, the quickest path to an approval is likely an Emergency Use Authorization in severe COVID-19 patients, so we're looking for an initial $2M seed/Series A round to fund a Phase 1b/2a clinical trial then need another $16M to produce more drug and perform a convincing Phase 2 trial. We are already talking to several potential corporate partners, have signed one CDA with a top 5 pharma, and a relatively small amount of investment in clinical proof of concept demonstrations will attract at least one partner. Once clinical POC is established in targeted indications, we plan to exit via sale/acquisition or out-license. Our markets are large (3 products x >$1B each US) and deal comps in the respiratory space are $250M each and up. We can maximize our ROI by out-licensing the first indication and re-investing upfront license payment proceeds to advance the drug in further indications, depending on what happens in each field/indication and what we (management team and investors) decide to do.
