Pandion Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing bispecific antibody therapeutics to achieve localized immunomodulation at the site of disease for durable, tissue-specific treatment of patients with autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, and organ transplants. Pandion’s approach has the potential to more effectively induce and sustain response and remission in patients with many autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. They aim to shift the paradigm and create a new generation of drugs with transformative efficacy and improved safety.

Vaxess Technologies is developing the MIMIX™ sustained release patch technology, the easiest and most effective way to administer vaccines and therapeutics. For vaccines, the controlled release simulates the pace of a natural infection, helping the body produce a slow, strong, and enduring ramp-up of immune response, ultimately boosting a vaccine’s effectiveness. Engineered for stability, Vaxess’s patch does not require refrigeration and can be shipped to and applied in low resource settings.

PanTher Therapeutics is on a mission to revolutionize cancer care with a proprietary treatment platform designed to enhance therapeutic response with minimal side effects. PanTher’s highly adaptable platform empowers oncologists to treat patients with life-threatening cancer by unlocking a drug’s full potential through direct, sustained treatment at the tumor site. This distinctive targeting capability uniquely positions PanTher to take on the deadliest and most difficult to treat cancers with a lead investigational candidate in pancreatic cancer.

Avexegen Therapeutics develops revolutionary therapies to promote gastro-intestinal health for patients with GI disorders. They offer an approach to directly heal damaged and inflamed gut tissue in patients with crohns disease and ulcerative colitis, as well as in premature infants with necrotizing enterocolitis.

Sentien Biotechnologies is a privately-owned, clinical-stage company developing novel cell therapies that restore balance to the immune system and transform treatment options for patients with systemic inflammatory diseases. The company's innovative blood conditioning approach has been proven to significantly enhance exposure and extend therapeutic activity of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs). By immobilizing MSCs in an extracorporeal device, their flagship SBI-101 product enables sustained, controlled dosage of secreted anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties that are unattainable by direct injection or intravenous infusion. Sentien Biotechnologies was established in 2008 and is headquartered in Lexington, Massachusetts, United States.
