The proceeds will advance Metaphore's MIMiC drug discovery platform and build its pipeline for autoimmune, metabolic or oncology indications. The MIMiC™ platform drives unprecedented insights into molecular interactions to design new biomolecules for therapeutic benefit.
Under the terms of the expanded collaboration, Arcus will initiate research programs against up to four targets jointly selected by the parties that are applicable to inflammatory diseases.
Under the terms of the collaboration, Astellas will license a suite of Twist’s VHH antibody libraries to be used by Astellas for drug discovery and development.
Enveda will use the net financing to progress multiple platform-derived molecules to the clinic in 2023 and 2024 across inflammation, fibrosis, and neurosensory indications.
Under the collaboration, Sygnature Discovery will provide its proprietary Fragment-Based Drug Discovery (FBDD) and virtual high throughput screening (vHTS) to accelerate discovery of Daewoong's novel small molecule to target autoimmune diseases.
The funding will be used to continue company's development of proprietary methods in genomic sequencing, artificial intelligence and synthetic biology to discover biomarkers and novel therapeutics to treat immunologic disorders.
Proceeds from the financing will be used to advance multiple pipeline programs targeting extracellular proteins that are known to be involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune, neurological, and other diseases yet remain poorly addressed by currently available approaches.
Under the terms of the collaboration, Aqilion will be responsible for the design and synthesis of novel small molecule TAK1 inhibitors while Merck will lead preclinical pharmacology and biology studies.
Sosei Heptares and AbbVie entered into the discovery collaboration and option-to-license agreement to discover, develop and commercialize novel small molecule medicines that modulate GPCR targets of interest to AbbVie.
IRF5 is a transcription factor that acts as a key regulator of certain types of immune responses, and its dysregulation is strongly implicated in several poorly treated autoimmune disorders.
