Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals by Bit Bio
The collaboration with MJFF leverages both bit.bio’s discovery platform to identify TF combinations and bit.bio’s opti-ox™ technology for the deterministic reprogramming of iPSCs into mature, functional human cells, for research and discovery in parkinson’s disease.
bbHEP01 is a encapsulated allogeneic txHepatocytes for the treatment of acute liver failure, expected to enter clinical development in 2025 and generate initial clinical data in 2026.
Lead Product(s):
Allogeneic Induced Hepatocyte-like Cell
Under the agreement, bit.bio will use its machine learning powered discovery platform to identify transcription factor combinations for reprogramming iPSCs into Tregs, for the discovery and manufacture of iPSC-derived regulatory T cells for use in creating therapeutics.
Lead Product(s):
iPSC-derived T-cell Based Therapy
The disease models, ioSkeletal Myocytes DMD Exon 44 Deletion™ and ioSkeletal Myocytes DMD Exon 52 Deletion™, are designed to advance the discovery and development of treatments for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
ioGlutamatergic Neurons(MAPT N279K/WT™) Human iPSC-derived FTD disease model,A rapidly maturing, consistent and scalable isogenic system to study frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
These precisely reprogrammed cell types are generated with the company’s precision cellular reprogramming technology opti-oxTM that enables unlimited batches of any human cell to be manufactured consistently at scale.
First neurodegenerative disease model launched from bit.bio's new ioDisease Model portfolio. Accurately replicates Huntington's disease genotype in human cells, setting a new standard in cell models for drug discovery.
The funding will accelerate the clinical development of the proprietary cell coding technology opti-ox - a breakthrough gene engineering approach that enables unlimited batches of human cell to be manufactured consistently at scale through direct reprogramming of stem cells.
