A method for treating TRAIL-resistant cancers
Unmet Need Over the past twenty years, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been shown to kill a variety of human cancer cells in vitro and in vivo while remaining innocuous to healthy cells. Unfortunately, the…
A bio-based method for producing adipic acid by using an enzyme to selectively convert 2-oxoadipate to (R)-2-hydroxyadipate
Unmet Need Adipic acid (1,4-butanedicarboxylic acid; COOH(CH2)4COOH), is among the most-produced chemicals worldwide, with approximately 2.5 billion kilograms synthesized annually and a global market of 8 billion USD. The most typical use for adipic acid…
A fully human EGFRvIII-targeted bispecific antibody engaging T cells for antitumor therapy
Value Proposition The most common malignant brain tumor, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), remains uniformly fatal despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Conventional therapy for malignant glioma fails to specifically target tumor cells. In contrast, substantial evidence indicates…
Sublingual immunization using supramolecular peptide-polymer conjugate tablets
Value proposition Immunization with vaccines prevent illness, disability, and currently avert an estimated 2 to 3 million deaths every year. However, commonly-used vaccine technology platforms can be unpredictable, require a high manufacturing cost, and often…
A therapeutic formulation for preventing posttraumatic osteoarthritis after joint injuries
Value Proposition Osteoarthritis (OA) is an affliction of the joints that affects approximately 27 million people in the U.S . Posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA), or osteoarthritis occuring after joint injury, accounts for approximately 12% of these…
Increasing the half-life of therapeutic proteins and peptides using elastomeric-like polypeptides with environmental sensitivity
Value Proposition Since insulin was used as the first therapeutic protein in a clinical setting, the field of protein therapeutics has rapidly expanded. From 2014-2018, therapeutic proteins had the highest compound annual growth rate of…
Mining microbial genomes for biologically active compounds
Most microbes of importance to human and environmental health are not amenable to experimentation. As a result, we do not know what molecules these microbes use to manipulate their environment- many of which are likely…
A universal antidote for aptamer therapeutics
Value Proposition With an ever increasing number of people taking numerous medications, the need to safely administer drugs and limit unintended side effects has never been greater. Antidote control remains the most direct means to…
Unstructured non-repetitive polypeptides as a tool for imparting temperature-dependent physical properties to protein fusions
Value Proposition Proteins can be useful therapeutic agents when engineered for specificity and selectivity for a clinical target. Their complexity, versatility, tolerability, and diversity often make them superior alternatives to small molecule drugs, and the…
An integrated hybrid biological-materials platform for portable production of biomacromolecules
Value Proposition Bacteria are a common host to produce diverse biologics, accounting for ~30% of biopharmaceuticals. The industrial synthesis of recombinant proteins using bacterial hosts entails multiple steps that each require a sophisticated and delicate…
Novel AnnexinA1 tripeptide (ANXA1sp) improves acute kidney injury after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest
Value Proposition Heart disease is the leading cause of death in industrialized nations across the world, with treatments often requiring surgery such as coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) or even transplantation. Although cardiac surgery is…
An adjuvant-free vaccine platform using self-assembling nanofibers
Value Proposition Vaccines have application for a wide range of human health conditions, including the treatment of pathogenic diseases, cancer immunotherapy, and the suppression of autoimmune disorders. In order to stimulate the immune system to…
