The company licensed the I-STAR™ platform, developed and validated by Theraclone Sciences of Seattle, tointerrogate the human memory B-cell repertoire of cancer patients who are considered “Elite Responders” to immunotherapy; as such, their own adaptive immune system responded to immunotherapy stimulation in a way that achieved curative or durable responses. From these Elite Responders, OncoResponse is leveraging the human immune system to identify fully human monoclonal antibodies and discover novel targets that will lead to the development of fully human antibody derived therapeutics for the treatment of cancer.
Larkspur Biosciences — Larkspur's strategy focuses on the particular ways in which tumours hijack the immune system by developing precision immunotherapies for molecularly defined patient groups to overcome the bottlenecks that allow the tumour to subvert the immune system.
EvolveImmune Therapeutics — EvolveImmune Therapeutics transforms the discovery and development of novel immunotherapies. By leveraging its proprietary in vivo target discovery platform, EvolveImmune is building a pipeline of novel therapeutic candidates against numerous targets that are expressed on multiple immune cell types.

Asceneuron — Asceneuron develops effective therapeutics for orphan tauopathies and Alzheimer’s disease. By focusing on areas of high unmet medical need, Asceneuron aspires to become a leading biotech company specialized in small molecule drug discovery for neurodegenerative diseases.Tauopathies are currently untreatable neurodegenerative diseases thatrapidly progress towards debilitating conditions. The appearance of deposits of the microtubule-associated tau protein as e.g. neurofibrillary tangles in neurons of the brain is a common feature of tauopathies that is shared with Alzheimer’s disease. Neuronal tau deposits are known to be a major contributor to neurodegeneration and mutations in the tau gene are causative of the tauopathy fronto-temporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17).Due to increasing life expectancy, Alzheimer’s disease is viewed as one of the largest healthcare problems of this century, imposing a major economic burden on societies in the Western and developing world. Current treatment options provide limited benefits supporting the urgent need for more efficacious and better tolerated medicines that address symptomatic relief as well as disease progression.
