TS-057778 — A novel monoclonal antibody (PIIO-1) to be used in combination with immune-checkpoint blockers. PIIO-1 augments CD8+ T cells-induced anti-tumor immunity and overcomes ICB resistance by disrupting transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), the center of a pathway significantly implicated in solid tumors and hematological malignancies. PIIO-1 inhibits TGFβ locally via a docking receptor, avoiding adverse and unforeseen side effects.

TS-057777 — A novel orally-active drug molecule that can inhibit pathological CD4+ T-cells at clinically translatable doses and, blunts progressive cardiac dysfunction and left-ventricular (LV) remodeling during Heart Failure (HF).

TS-057776 — A novel protein-drug conjugate of human serum albumin chemically conjugated to SN-38, solubilizing the potent chemotherapeutic. This therapy has the potential to treat many tumors with poor prognosis, including pancreatic, lung, breast, colorectal, ovarian, sarcoma, head and neck cancer, urothelial malignancies, and others.

TS-057739 — CRISPR/Cas 9 mediated targeting of MIR155HG in primary human T cells creates genomic deletions that disrupt transcription of mature microRNA-155 (miR-155, a miR associated with inflammation). Applying this treatment to donor T cells prior to allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) when treating hematological malignancies and other primary bone marrow disorders can prevent the development of aGVHD in patients.

TS-050524 — Despite high vaccine coverage, whooping cough caused by Bordetella pertussis remains one of the most common vaccine-preventable diseases worldwide. Introduction of whole-cell pertussis (wP) vaccines in the 1940s and acellular pertussis (aP) vaccines in 1990s reduced mortality due to pertussis. Des…

TS-050220 — Novel natural products and derivatives thereof that exhibit potent in vitro and in vivo activity

TS-049827 — circPCMTD1 is a novel target in p53 mutated leukemias.

TS-049730 — Dysregulated fat metabolism is an established hallmark of cancer cells. However, the disruption of lipid homeostasis in cancer cells remains an elusive target for therapy. Tumor cells acquire abundant fats for rapid cell growth, but how they avoid toxicity from such loading is unknown. An answer t…

TS-047118 — Analogues of verticillin with significantly improved drug-like properties, including increased solubility, absorption, and stability, while maintaining similar anticancer potency as the verticillin parent compounds.

TS-044084 — Trypanosoma cruzi is a protozoan parasite that causes Chagas disease, a PRV-eligible disease that is the leading cause of heart failure in Latin America. Due to migration of infected hosts from endemic regions, Chagas disease is also a growing public health concern in the USA and other migrant des…

TS-041485 — A functionalized DNA nanostructure made through a scaffolded DNA origami molecular self-assembly process to deliver clinically significant concentrations of therapeutics.

TS-038701 — Small-molecule prodrugs that target IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway.

TS-037747 — A novel peptide therapeutic AAC2 comprising amino acids with a coumarin-modified side chain that improves glucose control and reduces neurological decline and anxiety through activation of the insulin-insensitive glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1).

TS-037741 — The SMN2 gene contains sequences that regulate the level of inclusion of SMN exon7 in SMN mRNA, and some of these act in a negative manner. Antisense oligonucleotides to block the negative regulating protein binding to these sites can increase inclusion of SMN exon 7 and thus, the amount of SMN being produced.

TS-037569 — The constant activation of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) is frequently detected in many cancer patients with advanced diseases. About 80% of all cancers overexpress STAT3, including solid tumors, lymphoma, and leukemia. Constant activation of STAT3 activities in nonmal…

TS-037260 — A cocktail of locked nucleic acids inhibits the inflammatory response in a humanized murine model of lupus.
